bokeh.document.events

Provide events that represent various changes to Bokeh Documents.

These events are used internally to signal changes to Documents. For information about user-facing (e.g. UI or tool) events, see the reference for bokeh.events.

class ColumnDataChangedEvent(document, column_source, cols=None, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]

A concrete event representing efficiently replacing all existing data for a ColumnDataSource

__init__(document, column_source, cols=None, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]
Parameters
  • document (Document) – A Bokeh document that is to be updated.

  • column_source (ColumnDataSource) –

  • cols (list[str]) – optional explicit list of column names to update. If None, all columns will be updated (default: None)

  • setter (ClientSession or ServerSession or None, optional) –

    This is used to prevent “boomerang” updates to Bokeh apps. (default: None)

    See DocumentChangedEvent for more details.

  • callback_invoker (callable, optional) – A callable that will invoke any Model callbacks that should be executed in response to the change that triggered this event. (default: None)

dispatch(receiver)[source]

Dispatch handling of this event to a receiver.

This method will invoke receiver._column_data_changed if it exists.

generate(references, buffers)[source]

Create a JSON representation of this event suitable for sending to clients.

{
    'kind'          : 'ColumnDataChanged'
    'column_source' : <reference to a CDS>
    'new'           : <new data to steam to column_source>
    'cols'          : <specific columns to update>
}
Parameters
  • references (dict[str, Model]) –

    If the event requires references to certain models in order to function, they may be collected here.

    This is an “out” parameter. The values it contains will be modified in-place.

  • buffers (set) –

    If the event needs to supply any additional Bokeh protocol buffers, they may be added to this set.

    This is an “out” parameter. The values it contains will be modified in-place.

class ColumnsStreamedEvent(document, column_source, data, rollover, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]

__init__(document, column_source, data, rollover, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]
Parameters
  • document (Document) – A Bokeh document that is to be updated.

  • column_source (ColumnDataSource) – The data source to stream new data to.

  • data (dict or DataFrame) –

    New data to stream.

    If a DataFrame, will be stored as {c: df[c] for c in df.columns}

  • rollover (int) – A rollover limit. If the data source columns exceed this limit, earlier values will be discarded to maintain the column length under the limit.

  • setter (ClientSession or ServerSession or None, optional) –

    This is used to prevent “boomerang” updates to Bokeh apps. (default: None)

    See DocumentChangedEvent for more details.

  • callback_invoker (callable, optional) – A callable that will invoke any Model callbacks that should be executed in response to the change that triggered this event. (default: None)

class DocumentChangedEvent(document, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]

Base class for all internal events representing a change to a Bokeh Document.

__init__(document, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]
Parameters
  • document (Document) – A Bokeh document that is to be updated.

  • setter (ClientSession or ServerSession or None, optional) –

    This is used to prevent “boomerang” updates to Bokeh apps. (default: None)

    In the context of a Bokeh server application, incoming updates to properties will be annotated with the session that is doing the updating. This value is propagated through any subsequent change notifications that the update triggers. The session can compare the event setter to itself, and suppress any updates that originate from itself.

  • callback_invoker (callable, optional) – A callable that will invoke any Model callbacks that should be executed in response to the change that triggered this event. (default: None)

class ModelChangedEvent(document, model, attr, old, new, serializable_new, hint=None, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]

A concrete event representing updating an attribute and value of a specific Bokeh Model.

This is the “standard” way of updating most Bokeh model attributes. For special casing situations that can optimized (e.g. streaming, etc.), a hint may be supplied that overrides normal mechanisms.

__init__(document, model, attr, old, new, serializable_new, hint=None, setter=None, callback_invoker=None)[source]
Parameters
  • document (Document) – A Bokeh document that is to be updated.

  • model (Model) – A Model to update

  • attr (str) – The name of the attribute to update on the model.

  • old (object) – The old value of the attribute

  • new (object) – The new value of the attribute

  • serializable_new (object) – A serialized (JSON) version of the new value. It may be None if a hint is supplied.

  • hint (DocumentPatchedEvent, optional) – When appropriate, a secondary event may be supplied that modifies the normal update process. For example, in order to stream or patch data more efficiently than the standard update mechanism.

  • setter (ClientSession or ServerSession or None, optional) –

    This is used to prevent “boomerang” updates to Bokeh apps. (default: None)

    See DocumentChangedEvent for more details.
