How to put Bokeh interactive maps on a Website?

How to do upload my interactive bokeh maps I created on a website? I read the documentation and used the file_html function to create the html code, but all the functionality does not work like the select drop down, and sliders. What is the best way to share it on a website?
This is the warning I received.
This is the Warning I received. WARNING:bokeh.embed.util: You are generating
standalone HTML/JS output, but trying to use real Python callbacks (i.e.
with on_change or on_event). This combination cannot work. Only JavaScript
callbacks may be used with standalone output. For more information on
JavaScript callbacks with Bokeh , see:
http://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/docs/user_guide/interaction/callbacks.html

I tried to make that error message as self-contained as possible. I am not sure what else can be added to it, but suggestions are welcome. There are two scenarios:
Standalone output
This is purely HTML and JS content, that has no connection with any running python process. It is most often generated with output_file and show (or save), but it's also what you get if you use the lower level file_html function. Since there is no Python process anywhere after the output is created, there is no possible way for "real" Python callbacks to function, at all. In this case, the only possible callbacks that can work are JavaScript ones, e.g. CustomJS added with js_on_change or js_on_event. That's because the browser viewing the (purely HTML and JS) content does not know anything about Python, it only knows about JavaScript.
Bokeh Server Applications
This is a continuously running Bokeh server that serves Bokeh content, and,
most crucially: maintains an active connection to that content. That means that when some event happens, e.g. a slider changes, the Bokeh server can run real Python callback code in response. That is, in fact, the primary reason the Bokeh server exists: to be the thing that runs real Python code for an on_change or on_event callbacks. If you want to run real Python code (e.g. Numpy or Pandas or whatever) in response to events, you must run a Bokeh server.

Right click on the generated site in a web browser and select "Inspect". Then open the "console" tab and you list of errors will be detailed there. My guess is that you are not referencing a javascript file correctly.

How to enable autorefresh of structure view in Pycharm?

How can I force refresh in structure view or enable autorefresh in Pycharm. After any code update clicking on function does not work anymore (should jump to function code). Only possibility is to hide and show view but it loose context and I need search function name again what is bad idea with larger code.

Using Mac’s Dictation Inside Python

Does anyone have any ideas on how to use the Mac’s built-in dictation tool to create strings to be used by Python?
To launch a dictation, you have to double-press the Fn key inside any text editor. If this is the case, is there a way to combine the keystroke command with the input command? Something like:
Step 1: Simulate a keystroke to double-press the Fn key, launching the Dictation tool, and then
Step 2. Creating a variable by using the speech-to-text content as part of the input function, i.e. text_string = input(“Start dictation: “)
In this thread (Can I use OS X 10.8's speech recognition/dictation without a GUI?) a user suggests he figured it out with CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent(src, 0x3F, true), but there is no code.
Any ideas? Code samples would be appreciated.
UPDATE: Thanks to the suggestions below, I've imported AppScript. I'm trying the code to work along these lines, with no success:
from appscript import app, its
se = app('System Events')
proc = app.processes[its.frontmost == True]
mi = proc.menu_bars[1].menu_bar_items['Edit'].menus[1].menu_items['Start Dictation']
user_voice_text = input(mi.click())
print(user_voice_text)
Any ideas on how I can turn on the dictation tool to be input for a string?
UPDATE 2:
Here is a simple example of the program I'm trying to create:
Ideally i want to launch the program, and then have it ask me: "what is 1 + 1?"
Then I want the program to turn on the dictation tool, and I want the program to record my voice, with me answering "two".
The dictation-to-text function will then pass the string value = "two" to my program, and an if statement is then used to say back "correct" or "incorrect".
Im trying to pass commands to the program without ever typing on the keyboard.

First, FnFn dictation is a feature of the NSText (or maybe NSTextView?) Cocoa control. If you've got one of those, the dictated text gets inserted into that control. (It also uses that control's existing text for context.) From the point of view of the app using an NSTextView, if you just create a standard Edit menu, the Start Dictation item gets added to the end, with FnFn as a shortcut, and anything that gets dictated appears as input, just like input typed on a keyboard, or pasted or dragged with the mouse, or via any other input method.
So, if you don't have a GUI app, enabling dictation is going to be pointless, because you have no way to get the input.
If you do have a GUI app, the simplest thing to do is just get the menu item via NSMenu, and click the item.
You're almost certainly using some kind of GUI library, like PyQt or Tkinter, which has its own way of accessing your app's menu. But if not, you can do it directly through Cocoa (using PyObjC—which comes with Apple's pre-installed Python, but which you'll have to pip install if you're using a third-party Python):
import AppKit
mb = AppKit.NSApp.mainMenu()
edit = mb.itemWithTitle_('Edit').submenu()
sd = edit.indexOfItemWithTitle_('Start Dictation')
edit.performActionForItemAtIndex_(sd)
But if you're writing a console program that runs in the terminal (whether Terminal.app or an alternative like iTerm), the app you're running under has its own text widget and Edit menu, and you can parasitically use its menu instead.
The problem is that you don't have permission to just control other apps unless the user allows it. In older versions of OS X, this was done just by turning on "assistive scripting for accessibility" globally. As of 10.10, there's an Accessibility anchor in the Privacy tab of the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences that has a list of apps that have permissions. Fortunately, if you're not on the list, the first time you try to use accessibility features, it'll pop up a dialog, and if the user clicks on it, it'll launch System Preferences, reveal that anchor, add your app to the list with the checkbox disabled, and scroll it into view, so all the user has to do is click the checkbox.
The AppleScript to do this is:
tell application "System Events"
click (menu item "Start Dictation" of menu of menu bar item "Edit"
of menu bar of (first process whose frontmost is true))
end tell
The "right" way to do the equivalent in Python is via ScriptingBridge, which you can access via PyObjC… but it's a lot easier to use the third-party library appscript:
from appscript import app, its
se = app('System Events')
proc = app.processes[its.frontmost == True]
mi = proc.menu_bars[1].menu_bar_items['Edit'].menus[1].menu_items['Start Dictation']
mi.click()
If you really want to send the Fn key twice, the APIs for generating and sending keyboard events are part of Quartz Events Services, which (even though it's a CoreFoundation C API, not a Cocoa ObjC API) is also wrapped by PyObjC. The documentation can be a bit tricky to understand, but basically, the idea is that you create an event of the appropriate type, then either post it to a specific application, an event tap, or a tap location. So, you can create and send a system-wide key-down Fn-key event like this:
evt = Quartz.CGEventCreateKeyboardEvent(None, 63, True)
Quartz.CGEventPost(Quartz.kCGSessionEventTap, evt)
To send a key-up event, just change that True to False.

How to make PowerBuilder UI testing application?

I'm not familiar with PowerBuilder but I have a task to create Automatic UI Test Application for PB. We've decided to do it in Python with pywinauto and iaccesible libraries. The problem is that some UI elements like newly added lists record can not be accesed from it (even inspect32 can't get it).
Any ideas how to reach this elements and make them testable?

I'm experimenting with code for a tool for automating PowerBuilder-based GUIs as well. From what I can see, your best bet would be to use the PowerBuilder Native Interface (PBNI), and call PowerScript code from within your NVO.
If you like, feel free to send me an email (see my profile for my email address), I'd be interested in exchanging ideas about how to do this.

I didn't use PowerBuilder for a while but I guess that the problem that you are trying to solve is similar to the one I am trying to address for people making projects with SCADA systems like Wonderware Intouch.
The problem with such an application is that there is no API to get or set the value of a control. So a pywinauto approach can't work.
I've made a small tool to simulate the user events and to get the results from a screencapture. I am usig PIL and pytesser ORM for the analysis of the screen captures. It is not the easiest way but it works OK.
The tool is open-source and free of charge and can be downloaded from my website (Sorry in french). You just need an account but it's free as well. Just ask.
If you can read french, here is one article about testing Intouch-based applications
Sorry for the self promotion, but I was facing a similar problem with no solution so I've written my own. Anyway, that's free and open-source...

I've seen in AutomatedQa support that they a recipe recommending using msaa and setting some properties on the controls. I do not know if it works.

If you are testing DataWindows (the class is pbdwxxx, e.g. pbdw110) you will have to use a combination of clicking at specific coordinates and sending Tab keys to get to the control you want. Of course you can also send up and down arrow keys to move among rows. The easiest thing to do is to start with a normal control like an SLE and tab into the DataWindow. The problem is that the DataWindow is essentially just an image. There is no control for a given field until you move the focus there by clicking or tabbing. I've also found that the DataWindow's iAccessible interface is a bit strange. If you ask the DataWindow for the object with focus, you don't get the right answer. If you enumerate through all of the children you can find the one that has focus. If you can modify the source I also advise that you set AccessibleName for your DataWindow controls, otherwise you probably won't be able to identify the controls except by position (by DataWindow controls I mean the ones inside the DataWindow, not the DataWindow itself). If it's an MDI application, you may also find it useful to locate the MicroHelp window (class fnhelpxxx, e.g. fnhelp110, find from the main application window) to help determine your current context.
Edited to add:
Sikuli looks very promising for testing PowerBuilder. It works by recognizing objects on the screen from a saved fragment of screenshot. That is, you take a screenshot of the part of the screen you want it to find.

Programmatically launching standalone Adobe flashplayer on Linux/X11

The standalone flashplayer takes no arguments other than a .swf file when you launch it from the command line. I need the player to go full screen, no window borders and such. This can be accomplished by hitting ctrl+f once the program has started. I want to do this programmatically as I need it to launch into full screen without any human interaction.
My guess is that I need to some how get a handle to the window and then send it an event that looks like the "ctrl+f" keystroke.
If it makes any difference, it looks like flashplayer is a gtk application and I have python with pygtk installed.
UPDATE (the solution I used... thanks to ypnos' answer):
./flashplayer http://example.com/example.swf & sleep 3 && ~/xsendkey -window "Adobe Flash Player 10" Control+F

You can use a dedicated application which sends the keystroke to the window manager, which should then pass it to flash, if the window starts as being the active window on the screen. This is quite error prone, though, due to delays between starting flash and when the window will show up.
For example, your script could do something like this:
flashplayer *.swf
sleep 3 && xsendkey Control+F
The application xsendkey can be found here: http://people.csail.mit.edu/adonovan/hacks/xsendkey.html
Without given a specific window, it will send it to the root window, which is handled by your window manager. You could also try to figure out the Window id first, using xprop or something related to it.
Another option is a Window manager, which is able to remember your settings and automatically apply them. Fluxbos for example provides this feature. You could set fluxbox to make the Window decor-less and stretch it over the whole screen, if flashplayer supports being resized. This is also not-so-nice, as it would probably affect all the flashplayer windows you open ever.

I've actually done this a long time ago, but it wasn't petty. What we did is use the Sawfish window manager and wrote a hook to recognize the flashplayer window, then strip all the decorations and snap it full screen.
This may be possible without using the window manager, by registering for X window creation events from an external application, but I'm not familiar enough with X11 to tell you how that would be done.
Another option would be to write a pygtk application that embedded the standalone flash player inside a gtk.Socket and then resized itself. After a bit of thought, this might be your best bet.

nspluginplayer --fullscreen src=path/to/flashfile.swf
which is from the [http://gwenole.beauchesne.info//en/projects/nspluginwrapper](nspluginwrapper project)

Another option would be to write a pygtk application that embedded the standalone flash player inside a gtk.Socket and then resized itself. After a bit of thought, this might be your best bet.
This is exactly what I did. In addition to that, my player scales flash content via Xcomposite, Xfixes and Cairo. A .deb including python source be found here:
http://www.crutzi.info/crutziplayer

I've done this using openbox using a similar mechanism to the one that bmdhacks mentions. The thing that I did note from this was that the standalone flash player performed considerably worse fullscreen than the same player in a maximised undecorated window. (that, annoyingly is not properly fullscreen because of the menubar). I was wondering about running it with a custom gtk theme to make the menu invisible. That's just a performance issue though. If fullscreen currently works ok, then it's unneccisarily complicated. I was running on an OLPC XO, performance is more of an issue there.
I didn't have much luck with nspluginplayer (too buggy I think).
Ultimately I had the luxury of making the flash that was running so I could simply place code into the flash itself. By a similar token, Since you can embed flash within flash, it should be possible to make a little stub swf that goes fullscreen automatically and contains the target sfw.

You have to use Acton script 3 cmd:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
See Adobe Action script 3 programming.
But be careful : in full screen, you will lose display performances!
I've got this problem ... more under Linux!!!
