bokeh.sphinxext¶

bokeh_autodoc¶

Integrate Bokeh extensions into Sphinx autodoc.

Ensures that autodoc directives such as autoclass automatically use Bokeh-specific directives (e.g., bokeh-prop and bokeh-model) when appropriate.

bokeh_enum¶

Thoroughly document Bokeh enumerations

The bokeh-enum directive generates useful type information for the enumeration, including all the allowable values. If the number of values is large, the full list is put in a collapsible code block.

This directive takes the name of a Bokeh enum variable and the module to find the value as an argument:

.. bokeh-enum:: baz
    :module: bokeh.sphinxext.sample

Examples

For the following definition of bokeh.sphinxext.sample.Bar:

baz = enumeration("a", "b", "c")

the above usage yields the output:

baz = Enumeration(a, b, c)¶

bokeh_gallery¶

Generate a gallery of Bokeh plots from a configuration file.

bokeh_github¶

Simplify linking to Bokeh Github resources.

This module proved four new roles that can be uses to easily link to various resources in the Bokeh Github repository:

:bokeh-commit: : link to a specific commit

:bokeh-issue: : link to an issue

:bokeh-pull: : link to a pull request

:bokeh-tree: : (versioned) link to a source tree URL

Examples

The following code:

The repo history shows that :bokeh-commit:`bf19bcb` was made in
in :bokeh-pull:`1698`, which closed :bokeh-issue:`1694`. This included
updating all of the files in the :bokeh-tree:`examples` subdirectory.

yields the output:

The repo history shows that commit bf19bcb was made in in pull request 1698,which closed #1694. This included updating all of the files in the examples subdirectory.

bokeh_model¶

Thoroughly document Bokeh model classes.

The bokeh-model directive will automatically document all the attributes (including Bokeh properties) of a Bokeh model class. A JSON prototype showing all the possible JSON fields will also be generated.

This directive takes the path to a Bokeh model class as an argument:

.. bokeh-model:: Foo
    :module: bokeh.sphinxext.sample

Examples

For the following definition of bokeh.sphinxext.sample.Foo:

class Foo(Model):
    ''' This is a Foo model. '''
    index = Either(Auto, Enum('abc', 'def', 'xzy'), help="doc for index")
    value = Tuple(Float, Float, help="doc for value")

the above usage yields the output:

class Foo(**kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: bokeh.model.Model

This is a Foo model.

index¶

property type: Either ( Auto , Enum ( Enumeration(abc, def, xzy) ) )

doc for index

value¶

property type: Tuple ( Float , Float )

doc for value

JSON Prototype

{
  "id": "35102",
  "index": "auto",
  "js_event_callbacks": {},
  "js_property_callbacks": {},
  "name": null,
  "subscribed_events": [],
  "tags": [],
  "value": null
}

bokeh_palette¶

Generate an inline visual representations of a single color palette.

The :bokeh-palette: role can be used with by providing any of the following:

• a palette name from bokeh.palettes, e.g. Spectral9
• a palette function from bokeh.palettes called with argument, e.g. viridis(12)
• An explicit list of colors: ['#000000', '#333333', '#666666', '#999999', '#cccccc', '#ffffff']

The following usage of the the directive:

* by name: :bokeh-palette:`Spectral9`

* by function: :bokeh-palette:`viridis(12)`

* by list: :bokeh-palette:`['#000000', '#333333', '#666666', '#999999', '#cccccc', '#ffffff']`

Generates the output:

• by name:
• by function:
• by list:

Palette swatches are 20 pixels in height. For palettes short than 20 colors, the default width for the swatches is 20 pixels. If larger palettes are given, the width of the HTML spans is progressively reduced, down to a minimum of one pixel. For instance displaying the full Viridis palette with the expression

:bokeh-palette:`viridis(256)`

Will generate the output:

bokeh_palette_group¶

Generate visual representations of palettes in Bokeh palette groups.

The bokeh.palettes modules expose attributes such as mpl, brewer, and d3 that provide groups of palettes. The bokeh-palette-group directive accepts the name of one of these groups, and generates a visual matrix of colors for every palette in the group.

As an example, the following usage of the the directive:

.. bokeh-palette-group:: mpl

Generates the output:

bokeh_plot¶

Include Bokeh plots in Sphinx HTML documentation.

For other output types, the placeholder text [graph] will be generated.

The bokeh-plot directive can be used by either supplying:

A path to a source file as the argument to the directive:

.. bokeh-plot:: path/to/plot.py

Inline code as the content of the directive:

.. bokeh-plot::

    from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show

    output_file("example.html")

    x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    y = [6, 7, 6, 4, 5]

    p = figure(title="example", plot_width=300, plot_height=300)
    p.line(x, y, line_width=2)
    p.circle(x, y, size=10, fill_color="white")

    show(p)

This directive also works in conjunction with Sphinx autodoc, when used in docstrings.

The bokeh-plot directive accepts the following options:

source-position : enum(‘above’, ‘below’, ‘none’)

Where to locate the the block of formatted source code (if anywhere).

linenos : flag

Whether to display line numbers along with the source.

Examples

The inline example code above produces the following output:

from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show

output_file("example.html")

x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
y = [6, 7, 6, 4, 5]

p = figure(title="example", plot_width=300, plot_height=300)
p.line(x, y, line_width=2)
p.circle(x, y, size=10, fill_color="white")

show(p)

bokeh_prop¶

Thoroughly document Bokeh property attributes.

The bokeh-prop directive generates useful type information for the property attribute, including cross links to the relevant property types. Additionally, any per-attribute docstrings are also displayed.

This directive takes the path to an attribute on a Bokeh model class as an argument:

.. bokeh-prop:: Bar.thing
    :module: bokeh.sphinxext.sample

Examples

For the following definition of bokeh.sphinxext.sample.Bar:

class Bar(Model):
    ''' This is a Bar model. '''
    thing = List(Int, help="doc for thing")

the above usage yields the output:

thing¶

property type: List ( Int )

doc for thing

bokeh_releases¶

Publish all Bokeh release notes on to a single page.

This directive collect all the release notes files in the docs/releases subdirectory, and includes them in reverse version order. Typical usage:

:tocdepth: 1

.. toctree::

.. bokeh-releases::

To avoid warnings about orphaned files, add the following to the Sphinx conf.py file:

exclude_patterns = ['docs/releases/*']

bokeh_sitemap¶

Generate a sitemap.txt to aid with search indexing.

sitemap.txt is a plain text list of all the pages in the docs site. Each URL is listed on a line in the text file. It is machine readable and used by search engines to know what pages are available for indexing.

All that is required to generate the sitemap is to list this module bokeh.sphinxext.sitemap in the list of extensions in the Sphinx configuration file conf.py.

collapsible_code_block¶

Display code blocks in collapsible sections when outputting to HTML.

This directive takes a heading to use for the collapsible code block:

.. collapsible-code-block:: python
    :heading: Some Code

    from __future__ import print_function

    print("Hello, Bokeh!")

This directive is identical to the standard code-block directive that Sphinx supplies, with the addition of one new option:

heading : string

A heading to put for the collapsible block. Clicking the heading expands or collapses the block

Examples

The inline example code above produces the following output:

from __future__ import print_function

print("Hello, Bokeh!")
