download dataframe as csv through Bokeh app

I have a bokeh app along the lines of stock_app.py. My users have requested the ability to get a download of some of the data used in the plots. I’m not too familiar with Flask, but it seems that downloading a file goes something like this (assuming the existence of a DataFrame called “df”):

from flask import Flask, make_response
app = Flask(name)

@app.route(‘/download’)
def download():
dfbuffer = StringIO()
df.to_csv(dfbuffer, encoding=‘utf-8’, index=False)
dfbuffer.seek(0)
values = dfbuffer.getvalue()
output = make_response(values)
output.headers[“Content-Disposition”] = ‘download.csv’
output.headers[“Content-type”] = “text/csv”
return output

app.debug = True
app.run()

``

In my naiveté, I tried including a method in my Bokeh app that looks like this (set as a callback on a Button widget):

def download_csv(self, obj, attr, old, new):
dfbuffer = StringIO()
df = self.df
df.to_csv(dfbuffer, encoding=‘utf-8’, index=False)
dfbuffer.seek(0)
values = dfbuffer.getvalue()
output = make_response(values)
output.headers[“Content-Disposition”] = ‘download.csv’
output.headers[“Content-type”] = “text/csv”
return output

``

When I click the button, I get no errors, but also no download, so that’s clearly not the right way to do it. Is there a way to let a user download a csv file through a Bokeh app?

I didn’t figure out a way to do this with Flask, so I just added the following Callback to a Button widget.

Callback(
args=dict(objArray=data_source),
code=“”"
var array = objArray.attributes.data;
var str = ‘’;
var line = ‘’;
objKeys = Object.keys(array)
var placeholder_key = objKeys[0]

        for (var i = 0; i < objKeys.length; i++) {
            var value = objKeys[i] + "";
            line += '"' + value.replace(/"/g, '""') + '",';
        }

        line = line.slice(0, -1);
        str += line + '\\r\\n';

        for (var i = 0; i < array[placeholder_key].length; i++) {
            var line = '';

            for (var j = 0; j < objKeys.length; j++) {
                var index = objKeys[j]
                var value = array[index][i] + "";
                line += '"' + value.replace(/"/g, '""') + '",';
            }
            line = line.slice(0, -1);
            str += line + '\\r\\n';
        }
        window.open("data:text/csv;charset=utf-8," + escape(str));
        """)
