Preamble¶
from plotapi import Terminus
Terminus.set_license("your username", "your license key")Introduction¶
The Terminus diagram supports setting the title and also including the dynamic count of pixels currently on their journey.
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¶
The title can be modified by setting the desired string to the title parameter. Placing the <plotapi_count> tag in that string will create a title whereby that tag is replaced and updated in real-time with the current number of pixels on their journey.
Let's try a few combinations.
Here we're using .show() which outputs to a Jupyter Notebook cell, however, we may want to output to an HTML file with .to_html() instead. More on the different output methods later!
Terminus(links, title="Watch <plotapi_count> holidaymakers on their journey").show()
