Hi everyone,
What is the best way to embed a bokeh graph in the body of an email? I tried using MIMEWriter, but it sends it as an attachment. Additionally, I would prefer the graph to be interactive as it is in python with all the respective tools.
Thanks!
Hi,
I don’t think this is possible. Bokeh generates plots by running actual JavaScript code to draw on an HTML canvas. I’d be surprised if many or any mail clients support running JavaScript:

If you save your plot at some publicly accessible URL, then it might work to embed that URL in an iframe, but only in some email readers:

Otherwise, there are various ways to export Bokeh plots as images in bokeh.export, that is probably your best/only option.
Thanks
