I was able to embed a bokeh server graph in Flask. This is the output on localhost:
Problem is I am not being able to make this work on Heroku. All I get displayed is the text "Here is your great site".
So, the app is made of three files.
There's the script containing the graph:
#bokeh_plot.py
import pandas as pd
from bokeh.layouts import row, widgetbox
from bokeh.models import Select
from bokeh.palettes import Spectral5
from bokeh.plotting import curdoc, figure
from bokeh.sampledata.autompg import autompg
df = autompg.copy()
SIZES = list(range(6, 22, 3))
COLORS = Spectral5
ORIGINS = ['North America', 'Europe', 'Asia']
# data cleanup
df.cyl = [str(x) for x in df.cyl]
df.origin = [ORIGINS[x-1] for x in df.origin]
df['year'] = [str(x) for x in df.yr]
del df['yr']
df['mfr'] = [x.split()[0] for x in df.name]
df.loc[df.mfr=='chevy', 'mfr'] = 'chevrolet'
df.loc[df.mfr=='chevroelt', 'mfr'] = 'chevrolet'
df.loc[df.mfr=='maxda', 'mfr'] = 'mazda'
df.loc[df.mfr=='mercedes-benz', 'mfr'] = 'mercedes'
df.loc[df.mfr=='toyouta', 'mfr'] = 'toyota'
df.loc[df.mfr=='vokswagen', 'mfr'] = 'volkswagen'
df.loc[df.mfr=='vw', 'mfr'] = 'volkswagen'
del df['name']
columns = sorted(df.columns)
discrete = [x for x in columns if df[x].dtype == object]
continuous = [x for x in columns if x not in discrete]
quantileable = [x for x in continuous if len(df[x].unique()) > 20]
def create_figure():
xs = df[x.value].values
ys = df[y.value].values
x_title = x.value.title()
y_title = y.value.title()
kw = dict()
if x.value in discrete:
kw['x_range'] = sorted(set(xs))
if y.value in discrete:
kw['y_range'] = sorted(set(ys))
kw['title'] = "%s vs %s" % (x_title, y_title)
p = figure(plot_height=600, plot_width=800, tools='pan,box_zoom,reset', **kw)
p.xaxis.axis_label = x_title
p.yaxis.axis_label = y_title
if x.value in discrete:
p.xaxis.major_label_orientation = pd.np.pi / 4
sz = 9
if size.value != 'None':
groups = pd.qcut(df[size.value].values, len(SIZES))
sz = [SIZES[xx] for xx in groups.codes]
c = "#31AADE"
if color.value != 'None':
groups = pd.qcut(df[color.value].values, len(COLORS))
c = [COLORS[xx] for xx in groups.codes]
p.circle(x=xs, y=ys, color=c, size=sz, line_color="white", alpha=0.6, hover_color='white', hover_alpha=0.5)
return p
def update(attr, old, new):
layout.children[1] = create_figure()
x = Select(title='X-Axis', value='mpg', options=columns)
x.on_change('value', update)
y = Select(title='Y-Axis', value='hp', options=columns)
y.on_change('value', update)
size = Select(title='Size', value='None', options=['None'] + quantileable)
size.on_change('value', update)
color = Select(title='Color', value='None', options=['None'] + quantileable)
color.on_change('value', update)
controls = widgetbox([x, y, color, size], width=200)
layout = row(controls, create_figure())
curdoc().add_root(layout)
curdoc().title = "Crossfilter"
The Flask script:
#app.py
import subprocess
import atexit
from flask import render_template, render_template_string, Flask
from bokeh.embed import autoload_server
from bokeh.client import pull_session
app = Flask(__name__)
bokeh_process = subprocess.Popen(
['bokeh', 'serve','--allow-websocket-origin=localhost:5000','bokeh_plot.py'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
@atexit.register
def kill_server():
bokeh_process.kill()
@app.route("/")
def index():
session=pull_session(app_path="/bokeh_plot")
bokeh_script=autoload_server(None,app_path="/bokeh_plot",session_id=session.id)
return render_template("index.html", bokeh_script=bokeh_script)
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("STARTED")
app.run(debug=True)
And the index.html template:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<style>
@import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Noto+Sans);
body {
font-family: 'Noto Sans', sans-serif;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;

</style>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Bokeh Crossfilter Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<p> This is your great site<p>
<div class="bk-root">
{{ bokeh_script|safe }}
</div>
</body>
</html>
And this is what I get from the heroku logs. Note there's an Cannot start Bokeh server, port 5006 is already in use" line there.

I have desperately searched for an answer on the web, but haven't found anything on how to deploy a flask app that contains a bokeh server app inside. So, this post could be a good resource if anyone is able to provide an answer.
I believe the key is in the subprocess line in the app.py file where the bokeh server is called, but my knowledge in web services is limited so, can't figure out how to make it work. Any idea?
Edit 1: bigreddot suggested to change the value of --allow-websocket-origin to the url of the app. So, I did change localhost:5000 to bokehapp.herokuapp.com. That seems to fix the IOError: Cannot put session document. However, the graph still doesn't show. Here are the new logs I get from Heroku:

allow-websocket-origintells the Bokeh server that it's OK to initiate websocket connections that originate from "somewhere else" (i.e. someone hitting the Bokeh server via an embedded webpage instead og navigating directly to the Bokeh server). No one will ever be originating fromlocalhostso that value can't be right. It should be the public ip/hostname that people will navigate to to see your flask app page. - bigreddotlocalhost:5000tobokehapp.herokuapp.comwhich is the url for the app. That got rid of theIOError: Cannot pull session document. It also got rid of the internal server error which I was getting I visited bokehapp.herokuapp.com. However, the graph is still not showing on the webpage. I am not sure where to see the Bokeh server logs. I am only aware of the heroku logs command. I edited the question to show the latest logs after your proposed changes. Would be great if you showed me how to diagnose this even further. - multigoodversebokeh_plot.pyin the same directory thatapp.pyis being executed. Also, there may be issues running multiple processes with gunicorn -- i think this may mean multiple subprocess calls - quasiben
