Bokeh 0.12.7 completely revamped categorical support, making many kinds of bar chart simple and easy with bokeh.plotting. See:

  http://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/docs/user_guide/categorical.html

FYI This kind of information is usually broadcast in the release blog posts:

  https://bokeh.github.io/blog/2017/8/29/release-0-12-7/

As well as on twitter @BokehPlots

Thanks,

bkcharts references holoviews, which does not have Bar plots. Solution?

Hi,

and what about chord diagrams? I don’t find it neither in Bokeh nor Holoviews.

Regrettably, those are not available currently ether in Bokeh of HV yet as you say. There are very limited human resources available there simply has not been enough bandwidth to make this one specialized chart a priority over many other tasks yet. I would think HV is the best place to consider adding them at this point, so I'd suggest making an issue on their tracker to add it:

  Issues · holoviz/holoviews · GitHub

In the mean time the only suggestion I can offer is to stick with older versions of Bokeh to generate Chord charts.

Thanks,

Bryan
