Using OpenURL to change current tab

Hey,

Is there a way to use OpenURL from bokeh.models.callbacks to change the address of the current tab instead of opening the URL in a new tab?

Thanks for the help,

Kyle

Doesn't look like it, the current OpenURL implementation is tiny, it basically just calls window.open on the URL:

  https://github.com/bokeh/bokeh/blob/master/bokehjs/src/coffee/models/callbacks/open_url.coffee

So it could be possible (and not take many lines of code) to to add a flag or something to the existing OpenURL model to pass different values for the name parameter as described here:

  Window open() Method

If you'd like to open an issue on GH we could discuss it more technically there. I'd be happy to try and help you work up a PR to add this capability.

Another option is to create a new custom user-model. We've never had the need for BokehJS documentation really until now (it was treated as an implementation detail) so I am afraid at the moment there is mostly just examples you can refer to and study or ask questions about. I've posted a few in the mailing list, GH, and StackOverflow in the last few days.

Thanks,

Bryan

I appreciate the links. I’ll write some JS to get it to work.
