Force Re-Evaluation of Kino.SmartCell

[BrooklinJazz]

Is there a way to re-evaluate a Kino.SmartCell programmatically without needing to re-evaluate the cell manually?

I've tried returning a frame in a smart cell, then using Kino.Frame.render/2 but the output did not update until after re-evaluating the cell manually.

I'm hoping to create an animation smart cell that can control the animation (interval, content, etc) without needing to re-evaluate the entire cell. I'm also open to alternative solutions and would appreciate any suggestions :)

I believe the Kino VegaLite smart cell automatically reevalutes on change, is this what you are looking for? https://github.com/livebook-dev/kino_vega_lite/blob/main/lib/kino_vega_lite/chart_cell.ex#L57

@josevalim I think that's what I'm looking for! I had thought reevaluate_on_change only applied to the code editor but this looks like it will work for my purposes - I'll give it a go!
