NAME

Chart::Plotly - Generate html/javascript charts from perl data using javascript library plotly.js

VERSION

version 0.041

SYNOPSIS

 use Chart::Plotly 'show_plot';
 
 my $data = { x    => [ 1 .. 10 ],
              mode => 'markers',
              type => 'scatter'
 };
 $data->{'y'} = [ map { rand 10 } @{ $data->{'x'} } ];
 
 show_plot([$data]);
 
 use aliased 'Chart::Plotly::Trace::Scattergl';
 
 my $big_array = [ 1 .. 10000 ];
 my $scattergl = Scattergl->new( x => $big_array, y => [ map { rand 100 } @$big_array ] );
 
 show_plot([$scattergl]);

 use Chart::Plotly qw(show_plot);
 use PDL;
 
 use aliased 'Chart::Plotly::Trace::Surface';
 
 my $size = 25;
 my $x    = ( xvals zeroes $size+ 1, $size + 1 ) / $size;
 my $y    = ( yvals zeroes $size+ 1, $size + 1 ) / $size;
 my $z    = 0.5 + 0.5 * ( sin( $x * 6.3 ) * sin( $y * 6.3 ) )**3;    # Bumps
 
 my $surface = Surface->new( x => $x, y => $y, z => $z );
 
 show_plot([$surface]);
 
 use PDL::Math;
 
 my $bessel_size = 50;
 my $bessel      = Surface->new(
     x => xvals($bessel_size),
     y => xvals($bessel_size),
     z => bessj0( rvals( zeroes( $bessel_size, $bessel_size ) ) / 2 )
 );
 
 show_plot([$bessel]);

DESCRIPTION

Generate html/javascript charts from perl data using javascript library plotly.js. The result is a file that you could see in your favourite browser.

  Object that could be adapted using Chart::Plotly::Adapter::*

html_plot

Return the html for the plot or plots

Parameters

Data to be represented. The format is the same as the parameter data in render_full_html. Accepts multiple traces/plots/objects.

show_plot

Opens the plot or plots in a browser locally

Parameters

Data to be represented. The format is the same as the parameter data in render_full_html. Accepts multiple traces/plots/objects.

plotlyjs_version

Returns the version of plotly.js using in this version of the perl module as a string

plotlyjs_plot_function

Returns the name of function of plotly.js used in this version of the perl module to draw plots

plotlyjs_plot_function_parameters

BUGS

Please report any bugs or feature requests via github: https://github.com/pablrod/p5-Chart-Plotly/issues

DISCLAIMER

This is an unofficial Plotly Perl module. Currently I'm not affiliated in any way with Plotly. But I think plotly.js is a great library and I want to use it with perl.
