This is the Python wrapper of the JaveScript Library RoughViz which you could use to visualize sketchy/hand-drawn styled charts. You could check out original JS libarary here: RoughViz
- Bar
- Barh
- Pie
- Line
- Scatter
- Donut
Please install the dependencies in order to use them, you could clone the repo, and simply do if you are using
pip
.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Due to design of original RoughViz, there are some restrictions on the format of input data. The detailed description can be found in the documentation.
To use the tool, you could either define all options during chart in the initialization, or to define the options later. And in order to make it easier to use, there are several options provided.
- You could define all options using
set_options
- For common options shared across different charts, you could define it in a more intuitive way, e.g.
set_title(title="The plot", fontsize=2)
, orset_xlabel("X Label", fontsize=3)
- Example 1
from roughviz.charts.line import Line
line = Line(data="examples/example_datasets/vis1.csv", y1="a", y2="b", y3="c")
line.set_legend(legend_position="left")
line.set_title("Line Plot", fontsize=2)
line.set_options(colors=["tan", "orange", "coral"])
line.show()
- Example 2
from roughviz.charts.bar import Bar
data = {
"labels": ["North", "South", "East", "West"],
"values": [10, 5, 8, 3]
}
bar = Bar(data=data, title="Regions", title_fontsize=3)
bar.set_xlabel("Region", fontsize=2)
bar.set_ylabel("Number", fontsize=2)
bar.show()
