Bug: Bokeh broken for ANCOM analysis visualization

[Greg_Poore]

I finished the Moving Pictures tutorial and found that the last 2 visualizations using Bokeh did not function on my personal machine or when using the QIIME 2 website link. I feel as though there may be a bug with the package or its interface with QIIME 2. I’ll attach some links below:

• Link to premade QIIME 2 output visualization from Moving Pictures tutorial (no Bokeh plot appears): https://view.qiime2.org/visualization/?type=html&src=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.qiime2.org%2F2018.6%2Fdata%2Ftutorials%2Fmoving-pictures%2Fl6-ancom-Subject.qzv
• Link to Moving Pictures tutorial (one can click on the last link to see the issue): https://docs.qiime2.org/2018.6/tutorials/moving-pictures/

Thanks for the help!

Hello Greg,

Good catch! This plot is also empty on my computer.

Official Qiime demo visualization that should work (but doesn't).

This has already been raised here: Dots are missing the ANCOM plot?

The problem likely has to do with the latest bokeh install: https://github.com/qiime2/q2-composition/issues/56

The workaround for now is to downgrade bokeh to a previous version. bokeh==0.13.0 should do the trick.

Is there an issue for this?

Yep, it is linked to in the topic thread @mortonjt referenced above. Will repeat here for completeness:

Bokeh plot appears to be broken
