Source code for bokeh.application.handlers.handler

''' Provide a base class for Bokeh Application handler classes.

When a Bokeh server session is initiated, the Bokeh server asks the Application
for a new Document to service the session. To do this, the Application first
creates a new empty Document, then it passes this new Document to the
``modify_document`` method of each of its handlers. When all handlers have
updated the Document, it is used to service the user session.

Below is an example outline of a custom handler that might modify documents
based off information in some database:

.. code-block:: python

    class DatabaseHandler(Handler):
        """ A Bokeh Application handler to initialize Documents from a database

        """

        def modify_document(self, doc):

            # do some data base lookup here to generate 'plot'

            # add the plot to the document (i.e modify the document)
            doc.add_root(plot)

            # and return it
            return doc
