How do I add space between the tick labels and the graph in plotly (python)?

Question

If I create a horizontal bar graph using plotly, the labels for each bar are right up against the graph. I'd like to add some space/pad/margin between the label and the graph. How can I do this?

Example:

import plotly.offline as py
import plotly.graph_objs as go
labels = ['Alice','Bob','Carl']
vals = [2,5,4]

data = [go.Bar(x=vals, y=labels, orientation='h')]

fig = go.Figure(data)
py.iplot(fig)

Answer 1

Just use parameter pad in margin. Check example from docs here. Code:

import plotly.offline as py
import plotly.graph_objs as go

labels = ['Alice','Bob','Carl']
vals = [2,5,4]

data = [go.Bar(x=vals, y=labels, orientation='h')]

layout = go.Layout(
    margin=dict(
        pad=20
    ),
    title = 'hbar',
)
fig = go.Figure(data=data,layout=layout)

py.plot(fig, filename='horizontal-bar.html')

And plot should be looks something like that:
