Bokeh update duration in Python

Community Support

I am using Bokeh Api for plotting interactive plots in python.

For interactivity I use update function which updates the plot but this is happening instantly.

What I need is to update the plot with animation (the duration of change to be optional).

This kind of option is offered by bqplot in jupyter for example but is there any similar attribute in Bokeh?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Scripted animations is still an open feature request:

  https://github.com/bokeh/bokeh/issues/128

The only way to "animate" things at present is to explicitly update the underlying data, e.g. a loop that changes the coordinate data for a glyph

Thanks,

Bryan
