using google maps api with python

Question

I'm following this guide in starting with gmaps api and python;

import gmaps
import gmaps.datasets
import pandas as pd


def func():
    # Use google maps api
    gmaps.configure(api_key='MY_API_KEY')  # Fill in with your API key
    # Get the dataset
    earthquake_df = gmaps.datasets.load_dataset_as_df('earthquakes')
    # Get the locations from the data set
    locations = earthquake_df[['latitude', 'longitude']]
    # Get the magnitude from the data
    weights = earthquake_df['magnitude']
    # Set up your map
    fig = gmaps.figure()
    fig.add_layer(gmaps.heatmap_layer(locations, weights=weights))
    return fig

func()

been using this code from the guide (both on pychram and jupyter notebooks) but when i run the code (pychram/jupyter/terminal) I don't get the output map like in the guide. just a nice old-fashion

Process finished with exit code 0

I think you are missing the last line, which is to call fig — QuantumLicht

Check if it is enabled for jupyter first by running jupyter nbextension list. If you do not see jupyter-gmaps/extension enabled then you need to run this line in terminal jupyter nbextension enable --py gmaps and then run a new jupyter notebook.
