Changing Bokeh table row count - bokeh

Question

Below is a working example of a Bokeh table that is populated with selections from a scatter plot.
Once the table is first initialized, it always shows that many rows (too many or too few).
Is there a way to make the number of rows dynamic to fit the number of records selected?
Thank you

I don't have Jupyter Notebook but this example should help you on your way.
Just count the number of selected points and alter the number of table rows with table.height = number_points * 25. Run the code with: bokeh serve --show app.py
from bokeh.io import curdoc, show
from bokeh.layouts import widgetbox
from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource, Slider, DataTable, TableColumn
max_i = 200
init_i = 6
def get_square(n):
return dict(x = list(range(n)), y = [x ** 2 for x in range(n)])
source = ColumnDataSource(get_square(init_i))
columns = [
TableColumn(field = "x", title = "x"),
TableColumn(field = "y", title = "x**2"),
]
table = DataTable(source = source, columns = columns, width = 320)
slider = Slider(start = 1, end = max_i, value = init_i, step = 1, title = "i", width = 300)
def update_data(attrname, old, new):
i = slider.value
table.source.data = get_square(i)
table.height = i * 25 + 25
slider.on_change('value', update_data)
layout = widgetbox(slider, table)
curdoc().add_root(layout)
BTW: you should not replace the entire ColumnDataSource in your callback but just assign a new data to it like in my example, that is use:
table.source.data = new_data
instead of:
table.source = new_source
