In essence I want to run existing python scripts through a web browser, display the text and plots(if any) and also keeping the ability to run them through the command line.
I am wondering is there any toolkit that can help me with the development.Also it would be nice if the toolkit does or allows JavaScript based interactive plots.
Thanks!

WSGI is designed for just this purpose – it provides an interface for a web server to initiate python scripts.
You probably don’t want to work with WSGI in the raw. Flask is a straightforward, simple framework you might use for this.
The details of how to actually build a WSGI web server are well beyond the scope of a stackoverflow answer – you can find plenty of tutorial docs on Flask’s website.
