Create nested Bar graph in Bokeh from a DataFrame

Question

I have an existing DataFrame which is grouped by the job title and by the year. I want to create a nested bar graph in Bokeh from this but I am confused on what to put in order to plot it properly.

The dataframe:

                       size
fromJobtitle      year   

CEO               2000   236

                  2001   609

                  1999   365
                  2000  2393
                  2001  5806

                  2000   336
                  2001   494
                  2002    61
Unknown           1999   591
                  2000  2960
                  2001  3959
                  2002   673
Vice President    1999    49
                  2000  2040

I assume you have a DataFrame df with three columns fromJobtitle, year, size. If you have a MultiIndex, reset the Index. To use FactorRange from bokeh, we need a list of tupels with two strings (this is imporant, floats won't work) like

[('CEO', '2000'), ('CEO', '2001'), ('CEO', '2002'), ...]

an so on.

This can be done with

df['x'] = df[['fromJobtitle', 'year']].apply(lambda x: (x[0],str(x[1])), axis=1)

And this is all the heavy part. The rest does bokeh for you.

from bokeh.plotting import show, figure, output_notebook
from bokeh.models import FactorRange
output_notebook()

p = figure(
    x_range=FactorRange(*list(df["x"])),
    width=1400
)
p.vbar(
    x="x",
    top="size",
    width=0.9,
    source=df,
)

show(p)

This is the generated figure
