Getting around embedding the data in the HTML #11

The plots in the sandbox embed the data in the HTML, which will be a problem for relevant PLAsTiCC data that's too big. We can start by investigating bokeh callbacks to solve the problem.

So here is an example of someone who is doing what we want I think.: https://medium.com/@n.j.marey/my-experience-with-flask-and-bokeh-plus-a-small-tutorial-7b49b2e38c76

The issue is that I think it might require a bokeh-server.

After going through the bokeh docs and internet resources: it seems

The suggested way to do this is bokeh-server. My suggestion would be to try to get this running on our laptops. We can put it on a cheap GCP/ heroku server later and figure out the money related parts.
There is one way which might work without this. I have not tried it out but various docs seemed to suggest this : AjaxDataSource and its adapter to JSON. https://discourse.bokeh.org/t/ajaxdatasource/4482

Looking at the Open Supernova Catalog and its GitHub might be useful.

This site talks about how to get our website on Heroku: https://medium.com/@blondiebytes/heroku-hosting-put-your-website-on-the-cloud-cdc8729a7e09 We would have to add a backend using node.js.

I think there is a way to embed a heroku deployed app into your website. So you deploy the bokeh in heroku then embed it in your website using iframe https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp
