Colabtools: Can't use Bokeh inside Google Colab

Created on 17 Jan 2018 · 2Comments · Source: googlecolab/colabtools

I installed the library (from the notebook itself) and it showed the installation is successful

!pip install bokeh

but when I use it. It doesn't show anything (not even an error). Just blank output. When I check chrome's Javascript console, I see the follwoing

Bokeh: ERROR: Unable to run BokehJS code because BokehJS library is missing

There's a bokeh sample in the docs, which works for me. In particular, note the comment there about needing to call output_notebook() in the cell where you're producing your chart.

I'm going to close, but do reopen if that isn't working for you.

Has anybody successfully embedded a bokeh server in a google colab notebook? I'm trying to run a copy of bokeh/notebook_embed.ipynb in google colab. All cells execute fine but show(modify_doc) produces no output. What value should I pass as notebook_url?
