''' Provide a Bokeh Application Handler to build up documents by running
a specified Python function.

This Handler is not used by the Bokeh server command line tool, but is often
useful if users wish to embed the Bokeh server programmatically:

.. code-block:: python

    def make_doc(doc):

        # do work to modify the document, add plots, widgets, etc.

        return doc

    app = Application(FunctionHandler(make_doc))

    server = Server({'/bkapp': app}, io_loop=IOLoop.current())

    server.start()

For complete examples of this technique, see
:bokeh-tree:`examples/howto/server_embed`

[docs]class FunctionHandler(Handler):
    ''' A Handler that accepts a plain python function to use for modifying
    Bokeh Documents.

    For example, the following code configures a handler with a function that
    adds an empty plot to a Document:

    .. code-block:: python

        def add_empty_plot(doc):
            p = figure(x_range=(0,10), y_range=(0, 10))
            doc.add_root(p)
            return doc

        handler = FunctionHandler(add_empty_plot)

    This handler could be configured on an Application, and the Application
    would run this function every time a new session is created.

        '''

        Args:
            func (callable) : a function to modify and return a Bokeh Document.
                The function should have the form:

                .. code-block:: python

                    def func(doc):
                        # modify doc
                        return doc

                and it  should return the passed-in document after making any
                modifications in-place.
