bokeh.client.connection¶

Implements a very low level facility for communicating with a Bokeh Server.

Users will always want to use ClientSession instead for standard usage.

class ClientConnection(session, websocket_url, io_loop=None)[source]¶

A Bokeh low-level class used to implement ClientSession; use ClientSession to connect to the server.

__init__(session, websocket_url, io_loop=None)[source]¶: Opens a websocket connection to the server.

force_roundtrip()[source]¶

Force a round-trip request/reply to the server, sometimes needed to avoid race conditions. Mostly useful for testing.

Outside of test suites, this method hurts performance and should not be needed.

Returns:	None

loop_until_closed()[source]¶

Execute a blocking loop that runs and exectutes event callbacks until the connection is closed (e.g. by hitting Ctrl-C).

While this method can be used to run Bokeh application code “outside” the Bokeh server, this practice is HIGHLY DISCOURAGED for any real use case.

pull_doc(document)[source]¶

Pull a document from the server, overwriting the passed-in document

Parameters:	document – (Document) The document to overwrite with server content.
Returns:	None

push_doc(document)[source]¶

Push a document to the server, overwriting any existing server-side doc.

Parameters:	document – (Document) A Document to push to the server
Returns:	The server reply

request_server_info()[source]¶

Ask for information about the server.

Returns:	A dictionary of server attributes.

connected¶: Whether we’ve connected the Websocket and have exchanged initial handshake messages.
