String formatting in Bokeh axis

Hi there,

Is it possible to change the format of an axis to for example add a string? I have a numerical axis representing dollars, and I’d like to add the dollar symbol before the label in each tick.

In matplotlib it’s possible to do with:

ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(plt.FormatStrFormatter("$%i"))

But I don’t see a way to do this in Bokeh.

Thank you!

Currently it’s not possible, but will be implemented for bokeh 0.8 (scheduled for middle of February). You can track progress in https://github.com/bokeh/bokeh/issues/842.
