topicwizard Compatibility for Chinese

Hi! Thanks for this awesome package!

Currently am applying this package on Chinese language text corpus. The output generated are "empty squares" - the reason behind this is that we need to use explicit Language fonts (.tff file which I have). Any idea how to incorporate this external font file to this package for use?

Thanks!

Hello! Is it all graphs, or is this only the wordclouds?

This Stackoverflow thread could be of use to you.

Since topicwizard is essentially just a dash app, you can deal with this the same way they do. For the main file I would use the get_dash_app function so that you have a more direct access to the underlying application object. I can't confirm if this actually works, but it's worth a try ;)

As for the wordclouds, I will try to expose the font API somehow, I will post to this thread when I've made progress.

Sorry for delaying this so long, but I've gotten around to do it! I will ping you when the new release is out!

I have added custom fonts for word clouds!

# pip install topicwizard>=1.1.3
topicwizard.visualize(topic_data=topic_data, wordcloud_font_path="NotoSansTC-Bold.ttf")
