Solves #2863.
Now you can do
from plotly.utils import array_to_imagestr
However,
plotly.utils
is not a subpackage but just a module so it does not appear in the API doc. It'd be easy to change this to use a subpackage like what was done forplotly.colors
when working on the API doc. One the other hand it's enough for me if the function appears in image-related docs of plotly.py and dash so I won't push hard for this change.
