I've never worked with Bokeh before, so apologies if this question doesn't make sense. I have a plot that someone else generated using Bokeh and it has a huge JSON object (docs_json) that is all on the same line. I need to import this plot into a WordPress site which has a line length limit. Is there any way I can get Bokeh to generate that JSON in a prettified form rather than squishing the whole thing onto one line?
I'm in a situation where I'm working with 100s of plots being generated continuously, so I'd prefer not to have to manually touch each plot after it is generated.
Yes, the simplest way is to use the BOKEH_PRETTY environment variable when running any Bokeh code, e.g.
BOKEH_PRETTY=true python iris.py
Results in HTML output with embedded JSON that looks like:
<script type="application/json" id="4074acb8-0b70-4591-8d43-99873a9e1bc4">
{
"9d745210-1f6a-4c22-b8ca-c3d2b3829a8f": {
"roots": {
"references": [
{
"attributes": {
"bottom_units": "screen",
"fill_alpha": {
"value": 0.5
},
...
],
"root_ids": [
"ce2c1a38-e3e5-4155-9a80-6860dc284dbc"
]
},
"title": "Bokeh Application",
"version": "0.12.15dev1"
}
}
</script>
All of Bokeh's settings and their associated environment variables are documented in the reference guide:
