Add new throughput curves page about acs-notebook HOT 5 CLOSED

Also, do we want to maybe merge the bandwidth information with this page into one "ACS Filters" notebook/webpage?

from acs-notebook.

Coincidentally, I started working on this last night. The Throughputs page is much less involved than the Zeropoints page and the biggest change we would make is to incorporate interactive plots of the filter bandpasses.

I think there are three ways to go about this:

1. Create a notebook with interactive bokeh plots, export the notebook to html with nbconvert and finally copy and paste the html into Zope
2. Create interactive plots in bokeh and use file_html() to generate an html string that is a version of the plot which can be embedded into a webpage. I have tested this already, and it was very straightforward to do
3. Create interactive plots using matplotlib and mpld3, see this example.

I am in favor of option 3 because of my familiarity with matplotlib and the level of maturity of mpld3. The mpld3 package appears to have all of the same functionality as bokeh, plus it was written by Jake Vanderplas, so you know it's good. The only downside is that it is not actively maintained. 👎

@nmiles2718 given changes to the ACS webpages coming up, did we want to include a notebook that contains the throughput plots?

@tddesjardins I dont think this is necessary anymore. I have the interactive plots currently up on the new webpage within Jahia. Rather than recreating the ACS webpage, it would be more instructive to do a generalized example with pysynhot in a small code block on the website just above the interactive plots. I vote to close this issue.

Sounds good! I wasn't sure if you got the plots working or not after our conversations about Jahia limitations, but if that's working then I agree.
