"""An interface for publishing rich data to frontends. There are two components of the display system: * Display formatters, which take a Python object and compute the representation of the object in various formats (text, HTML, SVG, etc.). * The display publisher that is used to send the representation data to the various frontends. This module defines the logic display publishing. The display publisher uses the ``display_data`` message type that is defined in the IPython messaging spec.

The data itself must be a JSON'able data structure. Minimally all data should have the 'text/plain' data, which can be displayed by all frontends.

This can contain arbitrary key, value pairs that frontends can use to interpret the data. Metadata specific to each mime-type can be specified in the metadata dict with the same mime-type keys as the data itself. source : str, deprecated Unused. transient: dict, keyword-only A dictionary for transient data.
