How do I highlight an entire trace upon hover in Plotly for Python?

I want a trace to be highlighted (color or opacity change) when selected with mouse hover. I have looked into restyle functionality, but it may not be appropriate for my use case.

enter image description here

It looks like this has been discussed on Github, but I'm not sure if it has been resolved/implemented.

Here is an example in Bokeh of what I want to accomplish in Plotly Python:

from bokeh.plotting import figure, show, output_notebook
from bokeh.models import HoverTool
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource
output_notebook()

p = figure(plot_width=400, plot_height=400,y_range=(0.2,0.5))


y_vals = [0.22,0.22,0.25,0.25,0.26,0.26,0.27,0.27]
y_vals2 = [y*1.4 for y in y_vals]
x_vals = [0,1,1,2,2,2,2,3]
data_dict = {'x':[x_vals,x_vals],
             'y':[y_vals,y_vals2],
             'color':["firebrick", "navy"],
             'alpha':[0.1, 0.1]}

source = ColumnDataSource(data_dict)

p.multi_line('x','y',source=source,
             color='color', alpha='alpha', line_width=4,
             hover_line_alpha=1.0,hover_line_color='color')

p.add_tools(HoverTool(show_arrow=True,
                      line_policy='nearest',
                      ))
show(p)

hover above top line hover above bottom line
