Data-Driven Documents http://d3js.org/
NVD3 is an attempt to build re-usable charts and chart components for d3.js without taking away the power that d3.js gives you.
Install, upgrade and uninstall python-nvd3 with these commands:
$ pip install python-nvd3
$ pip install --upgrade python-nvd3
$ pip uninstall python-nvd3
Bower will be used to install D3 and NvD3, see bower website for futher info : http://bower.io/
Bower depends on Node and npm. It's installed globally using npm:
npm install -g bower
Then in your directory where you will use python-nvd3, just type the following:
$ bower install d3#3.3.6
$ bower install nvd3#1.1.12-beta
This will create a directory "bower_components" where d3 & nvd3 will be installed.
After installation use python-nvd3 as follows :
from nvd3 import pieChart
#Open File to write the D3 Graph
output_file = open('test-nvd3.html', 'w')
type = 'pieChart'
chart = pieChart(name=type, color_category='category20c', height=450, width=450)
chart.set_containerheader("\n\n<h2>" + type + "</h2>\n\n")
#Create the keys
xdata = ["Orange", "Banana", "Pear", "Kiwi", "Apple", "Strawberry", "Pineapple"]
ydata = [3, 4, 0, 1, 5, 7, 3]
#Add the serie
extra_serie = {"tooltip": {"y_start": "", "y_end": " cal"}}
chart.add_serie(y=ydata, x=xdata, extra=extra_serie)
chart.buildhtml()
output_file.write(chart.htmlcontent)
#close Html file
output_file.close()
