Preamble¶
from plotapi import Terminus Terminus.set_license("your username", "your license key")
Introduction¶
Let's take a look at the bundled
parameter. This will group together the input, giving the impression that they are entering through the same pipe.
As we can see, we have set our license details in the preamble with Terminus.set_license()
.
Dataset¶
Terminus expects a list
of dictionary
items, these will define the flow of pixels between a source
and a target
.
links = [ {"source":"England", "target":"Germany", "value": 1000}, {"source":"England", "target":"France", "value": 3000}, {"source":"England", "target":"Spain", "value": 5000}, {"source":"England", "target":"Italy", "value": 4000}, {"source":"England", "target":"Japan", "value": 800}, {"source":"Ireland", "target":"Germany", "value": 3500}, {"source":"Ireland", "target":"France", "value": 3750}, {"source":"Ireland", "target":"Spain", "value": 1750}, {"source":"Ireland", "target":"Italy", "value": 5000}, {"source":"Ireland", "target":"Japan", "value": 400}, ]
We can add many source
's and target
's! As they increase, we may need to adjust Terminus layout properties to accomodate the diagram's size and throughput.
Visualisation¶
To enable bundled pipes, all we need to do is set bundled
to True
.
Here we're using .show()
which outputs to a Jupyter Notebook cell, however, we may want to output to a HTML file with .to_html()
instead. More on the different output methods later!
Terminus(links, bundled=True).show()
