Setting Selected Property of ColumnData does not Change Selected Row.

To get the selected rows of a DataTable you access the property source.selected['1d']['indices']. I tried to set the property so selection is based on code, but it doesn’t work. What other way do I have to set the selected rows (preferably with python not JS) ? In the example below, based on the documentation, I set the selected row to be equal 3 but the table is not selected in the browser.

from datetime import date
from random import randint

from bokeh.io import output_file, show
from bokeh.layouts import widgetbox
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource
from bokeh.models.widgets import DataTable, DateFormatter, TableColumn

output_file("data_table.html")

data = dict(
    dates=[date(2014, 3, i + 1) for i in range(10)],
    downloads=[randint(0, 100) for i in range(10)],
)
source = ColumnDataSource(data)

columns = [
    TableColumn(field="dates", title="Date", formatter=DateFormatter()),
    TableColumn(field="downloads", title="Downloads"),
]
data_table = DataTable(source=source, columns=columns, width=400, height=280)
source.selected['1d']['indices'] = [3]
show(widgetbox(data_table))

This was fixed at some point. Original code with update for selected.indices:

from datetime import date
from random import randint

from bokeh.io import output_file, show
from bokeh.layouts import widgetbox
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource
from bokeh.models.widgets import DataTable, DateFormatter, TableColumn

output_file("data_table.html")

data = dict(
    dates=[date(2014, 3, i + 1) for i in range(10)],
    downloads=[randint(0, 100) for i in range(10)],
)
source = ColumnDataSource(data)

columns = [
    TableColumn(field="dates", title="Date", formatter=DateFormatter()),
    TableColumn(field="downloads", title="Downloads"),
]
data_table = DataTable(source=source, columns=columns, width=400, height=280)
source.selected.indices= [3]
show(widgetbox(data_table))

yields:
