# Termgraph

A python command-line tool which draws basic graphs in the terminal.

Graph types supported:

- Bar Graphs
- Color charts
- Multi-variable
- Stacked charts
- Horizontal or Vertical
- Emoji!


### Examples

```
termgraph data/ex1.dat

# Reading data from data/ex1.dat

2007: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 183.32
2008: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 231.23
2009: ▇ 16.43
2010: ▇▇▇▇ 50.21
2011: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 508.97
2012: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 212.05
2014: ▏ 1.00
```

An example using emoji as custom tick:

```
termgraph data/ex1.dat --custom-tick "🏃" --width 20 --title "Running Data"

# Running Data

2007: 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 183.32
2008: 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 231.23
2009:  16.43
2010: 🏃 50.21
2011: 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 508.97
2012: 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃 212.05
2014:  1.00

```


An example using stdin and emoji:

```
echo "Label,3,9,1" | termgraph --custom-tick "😀" --no-label


😀😀😀 3.00
😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀 9.00
😀 1.00

```

Most results can be copied and pasted wherever you like, since they use standard block characters. However the color charts will not show, since they use terminal escape codes for color. A couple images to show color examples:

```
termgraph data/ex4.dat --color {blue,red}
```

```
termgraph data/ex7.dat --color {yellow,magenta} --stacked --title "Stacked Data"
```

Calendar Heatmap, expects first column to be date in yyyy-mm-dd

```
termgraph --calendar --start-dt 2017-07-01 data/cal.dat
```

### Install

Works best with Python3, you can install from [PyPI project](https://pypi.org/project/termgraph/)

```
pip3 install termgraph
```

Note: Be sure your PATH includes the pypi install directory, for me it is `~/.local/bin/`

### Usage

* Create data file with two columns either comma or space separated.
  The first column is your labels, the second column is a numeric data

* termgraph [datafile]

* Help: termgraph -h

```

usage: termgraph [-h] [--title TITLE] [--width WIDTH] [--format FORMAT]
                    [--suffix SUFFIX] [--no-labels]
                    [--color [{red,blue,green,magenta,yellow,black,cyan} [{red,blue,green,magenta,yellow,black,cyan} ...]]]
                    [--vertical] [--stacked] [--different-scale] [--calendar]
                    [--start-dt START_DT] [--custom-tick CUSTOM_TICK]
                    [--delim DELIM] [--verbose]
                    [filename]

draw basic graphs on terminal

positional arguments:
  filename              data file name (comma or space separated). Defaults to

  --delim DELIM         Custom delimiter, default , or space
  --verbose             Verbose output, helpful for debugging
```


### Background

I wanted a quick way to visualize data stored in a simple text file. I initially created some scripts in R that generated graphs but this was a two step process of creating the graph and then opening the generated graph.

After seeing [command-line sparklines](https://github.com/holman/spark) I figured I could do the same thing using block characters for bar charts.
