[bokeh] Custom Hover tooltips for Bar Charts

Hi Bryan,

It is an honor hearing from you as I have worked through some of your inspiring classes on youtube. Thank you so much for explaining. Actually this is exactly the
discussion I had earlier on Friday with my own boss (who also told me to restrict my search to the official docs). As data scientists within Océ we really support Bokeh and are looking forward to what else will be built.

Although at some point we have to freeze the version and start working with that, especially if the API’s are subjected to such dramatic changes. We need to create
a visualization dashboard/module (low level) which all of function designers will work with (high level).

I am not quite sure what you mean by ‘using the mailing list’, but I do have an issue I have been struggling with the past few days.

Attached I have a .csv with the data (nozzle failures from print head 0,1,2 and colors K,C,M,Y). I want to recreate the matplotlib bar chart (see .png).

I get stuck if I use your Bar chart API, so then I tried using a scatterplot with which I can get it to work almost. I need to get to a state where if a nozzle (dot)
is tapped (or box-selected), more data on this nozzle will be plotted, in this case a timeframe of the failure.

Below the code:

note: apparently I need to convert my dataFrame to an orderedDict (=xyvalues)?

Issues: 1. hovering works partially. 2. not sure how to implement a callback (callback=CustomJS.from_py_func(callback)) 3. a bar plot would be nicer.

I would say I have more options defining a figure and use .circle , but this one does not support blends?

I look forward to your response.

Hi Rakesh,

Bokeh is a large project, with different parts that have different levels of stability and maturity. Getting things right sometimes means experimenting and seeing what works for a time, which sometimes means breaking APIs. We try to minimize this, of course,
because it can understandably be frustrating, but sometimes it is unavoidable if forward progress is to continue. This has been particularly true of the bokeh.charts interface, which is the newest and least mature API. The bokeh.charts API has started to stabilize
much more redently, but the internet remembers everything, including old and outdated things that are no longer relevant. My recommendation is to use the official docs (for the version of Bokeh you are using) and the mailing list as much as possible, especially
with bokeh.charts questions.

Thanks,

Bryan

Hi Rakesh,

If stability is a high priority for you, I would recommend considering bokeh.plotting instead of bokeh.charts. The bokeh.plotting API has not changed in any appreciable way in nearly two years, is extremely stable, and will continue to be. You can find more information about bokeh.plotting here:

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

As I mentioned, bokeh.charts is the newest API, and the least stable. Additionally, while the bokeh.plotting API is a little bit more verbose, it offers better control over things like hover tools and updating data in client (JS) callbacks. An example of a plot that updates data based on a hover callback is here:

  Interaction — Bokeh 3.3.2 Documentation

Since bokeh.charts preprocesses the data in python before sending it to the client, and only the transformed data is available in the client, I think this sort of thing is probably much easier with bokeh.plotting instead.

Thanks,

Bryan
