Categorical labels on numerical axis?

Figured it out from the v0.12.3 release notes.

import numpy as np

from scipy.cluster import hierarchy

from scipy.spatial import distance

from bokeh.plotting import figure, show, output_file

        from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource,

FuncTickFormatter, FixedTicker

output_file(“test.html”)

data = np.random.rand(5, 300)

labels = list(“abcde”)

clusts = hierarchy.average(data)

dend = hierarchy.dendrogram(clusts, no_plot=True)

plot_ds = ColumnDataSource({“x”: dend[“icoord”],

“y”: dend[“dcoord”]})

        axis_ds = ColumnDataSource({"label": [labels[i] for i in

dend[“leaves”]],

        "position": list( range(5,

len(labels)*10+5, 10))})

p = figure(height=400, width=600)

p.multi_line(“x”, “y”, source=plot_ds)

        p.xaxis.ticker =

FixedTicker(ticks=axis_ds.data[“position”])

p.xaxis.formatter = FuncTickFormatter.from_coffeescript(

args=dict(axis_dsource=axis_ds),

code=“”"

axis_data = axis_dsource.get(“data”)

pos = axis_data[“position”]

idx = pos.indexOf(tick) if tick in pos

axis_data[“label”][idx]

“”")

show(p)

            Is it possible to put text labels on a

numerical axis? I’m trying to plot a dendogram (matplot
lib example below), and would like the axis labels to be
categorical, however I still need numerical
x-coordinates for plotting. I’ve been considering adding
a categorical axis, or trying the FuncTickFormatter, but
have had trouble finding relevant examples.
