Saving html file with images in bokeh

Question

I'm creating a bokeh plot containing several images. I create and show my file like this:

output_file(my_dir + "Graphs\\graph")
show(bar)

It then shows me the plot and creates a graph.html file in my directory "Graphs". But when I open the html later, the plot doesn't contain the images. How can I save the html file, so that it contains the images as well?

Answer 1

As the documentation mentions, you have two ways to achieve this:

• using save() instead of show()

  from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, save
  p = figure(title="Basic Title", plot_width=300, plot_height=300)
  p.circle([1, 2], [3, 4])
  output_file("test.html")
  save(p)
  

• using the file_html function, which is low-level

  from bokeh.plotting import figure
  from bokeh.resources import CDN
  from bokeh.embed import file_html
  
  plot = figure()
  plot.circle([1,2], [3,4])
  
  html = file_html(plot, CDN, "my plot")
  
  with open("/myPath.html") as f:
      f.write(html)
