Description

cannot create a DatetimePicker widget as per the documentation here

Reproduce

I am running the jupyter datascience notebook docker image in a container on an AWS EC2 instance, with the default widget library installed.

I have attached a zip of the .ipynb file that recreates the error.

• JupyterLab version: 3.4.3
• Browser: Microsoft Edge Version 102.0.1245.44 (Official build) (64-bit)

What version of ipywidgets do you have installed? It may be that the DateTimePicker is in the upcoming 8.0 release, not the current 7.x release.

[jasongrout]

Here is the documentation for the current stable release of ipywidgets: https://ipywidgets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/examples/Widget%20List.html

(the documentation link you posted is for the upcoming 8.0 release, indicated by the "/latest/" in the URL)

copy - I noticed the stable release doesn't have a DatetimePicker widget. So the error makes sense. When is the target date for the 8.0 version release?

We don't have a target date, but I'll be working on it tomorrow.
