Description
Hello,
The example in the plotly book with the images appearing on hovering does no longer work. That's because Plotly.d3 is undefined in recent versions of plotly.js. This had been announced in the announcement of plotly.js v2.
So to make the example work, one has to include d3.js as a HTML dependency and do d3.select instead of Plotly.d3.select.

Research direction
Start with the supplying-custom-data example in the plotly book and inspect how its HTML dependencies and hover-image selection are defined. Update the example to use the declared D3 dependency and verify that images still appear on hover with recent plotly.js versions.
