Image tooltip

This example shows how to render images in tooltips. Either URLs or local file paths can be used to reference the images.

import altair as alt
import pandas as pd

source = pd.DataFrame.from_records(
    [{'a': 1, 'b': 1, 'image': 'https://altair-viz.github.io/_static/altair-logo-light.png'},
     {'a': 2, 'b': 2, 'image': 'https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/11796929?s=200&v=4'}]
)
alt.Chart(source).mark_circle(size=200).encode(
    x='a',
    y='b',
    tooltip=['image']  # Must be a list for the image to render
)
