bokeh.command.bootstrap

Provide a main function to run bokeh commands.

The following are equivalent:

• Running the bokeh command line script:

  bokeh serve --show app.py
  

• Using python -m bokeh:

  python -m bokeh serve --show app.py
  

• Executing main programmatically:

  from bokeh.command.bootstrap import main
  
  main(["bokeh", "serve", "--show", "app.py"])
  

main(argv: Sequence[str]) → None

Execute the Bokeh command.

Parameters

argv (seq[str]) – a list of command line arguments to process

Returns

None

The first item in argv is typically “bokeh”, and the second should be the name of one of the available subcommands:

• info

• json

• sampledata

• secret

• serve

• static
