Bokeh Server Executed my functions twice on import?

Hi team,

I have a simple bokeh data visualization. The code is organized in the following way:

···

================================================================

  • data.py
  • process_map_data

  • process_ts_data

  • main.py

================================================================

process_map_data & process_ts_data are simply helper functions for querying.

def process_map_data(end_date):

  • …*

  • print "Finished processing [map data] … "*

def process_ts_data(end_date):

  • …*

  • print "Finished processing [ts data] … "*

In the main.py file, I imported the two functions because they are convenient to use, very much in the same style as the Gapminder example on the official website.

from data import process_map_data, process_ts_data

zip_date_ranges, countries_list, source, sources = process_map_data(end_date = ‘2016-10-10’)

markets_list, ts_event, ts_events, ts_source, ts_sources = process_ts_data(end_date = ‘2017-01-01’)

However, when I run the server, I couldn’t quite figure out why these functions get executed twice when I use bokeh server? Here is an example of my log:

2016-10-20 23:01:13,210 Starting Bokeh server version 0.12.3

2016-10-20 23:01:13,215 Starting Bokeh server on port 5006 with applications at paths [’/main’]

2016-10-20 23:01:13,215 Starting Bokeh server with process id: 4867

2016-10-20 23:01:18,788 302 GET / (::1) 0.53ms

2016-10-20 23:02:17,146 302 GET / (::1) 0.36ms

Query: WARNING: Loading from cache:

Query: INFO: Completed in 0.22 seconds.

then the sam two functions get executed again !?

Finished processing [map data] …

*Query: WARNING: Loading from cache *

Query: INFO: Completed in 1.03 seconds.

Finished processing [ts data] …

2016-10-20 23:03:17,070 200 GET /demand_index (::1) 59919.84ms

Why do my functions get executed twice? (Happy to provide more code)

Thanks

Did you load the page twice? The script is executed on every new session (i.e. every page load), to create a new document for the session. That is normal and expected behaviour. If you have some expensive operation that only needs to happen once, you can look into lifecycle hooks to control that kind of thing:

A concrete example is the spectrogram:

Thank you Bryan,

A noob question. How can I use the lifecycle hooks to run a query against my database, retrieve the results and stored as a dataFrame that can be used in my main.py? I understand the general idea of executing function calls on each server load/session load, but I don’t know how to expose the data from server_lifecycle.py to my code in main.py.

Thanks
