The sampledata module can be used to download data sets used in Bokeh examples.
sampledata
The simplest way to download the data is to use the execute the command line program:
bokeh sampledata
Alternatively, the download function described below may be called programmatically.
download
>>> import bokeh.sampledata >>> bokeh.sampledata.download()
By default, data is downloaded and stored to a directory $HOME/.bokeh/data. (The directory is created if it does not already exist.) Bokeh looks for a YAML configuration file at $HOME/.bokeh/config. The YAML key sampledata_dir can be set to the absolute path of a directory where the data should be stored. For instance adding the following line to the config file:
$HOME/.bokeh/data
$HOME/.bokeh/config
sampledata_dir
sampledata_dir: /tmp/bokeh_data
will cause the sample data to be stored in /tmp/bokeh_data.
/tmp/bokeh_data
