*********************************
Why Highcharts for Python?
*********************************
`Highcharts <https://www.highcharts.com>`__ is the world's most popular, most powerful,
category-defining JavaScript data visualization library. If you are building a web or
mobile app/dashboard that will be visualizing data in some fashion, you should
absolutely take a look at the Highcharts suite of solutions. Take a peak at some
fantastic `demo visualizations <https://www.highcharts.com/demo>`__.
As a suite of JavaScript libraries, `Highcharts <https://www.highcharts.com>`__ is
written in JavaScript, and is used to configure and render data visualizations in a
web browser (or other JavaScript-executing) environment. As a set of JavaScript
libraries, its audience is JavaScript developers. But what about the broader ecosystem of
Python developers and data scientists?
Given Python's increasing adoption as the technology of choice for data science and for
the backends of leading enterprise-grade applications, Python is often the backend that
delivers data and content to the front-end...which then renders it using JavaScript and
HTML.
There are numerous Python frameworks (Django, Flask, Tornado, etc.) with specific
capabilities to simplify integration with Javascript frontend frameworks (React, Angular,
VueJS, etc.). But facilitating that with Highcharts has historically been very difficult.
Part of this difficulty is because the Highcharts JavaScript suite - while supporting JSON as a
serialization/deserialization format - leverages JavaScript object literals to expose the
full power and interactivity of its data visualizations. And while it's easy to serialize
JSON from Python, serializing and deserializing to/from JavaScript object literal notation
is much more complicated.
This means that Python developers looking to integrate with Highcharts typically had to
either invest a lot of effort, or were only able to leverage a small portion of Highcharts'
rich functionality.
So we wrote the **Highcharts for Python Toolkit** to bridge that gap.
**Highcharts for Python** provides Python object representation for *all* of the
JavaScript objects defined in the
`Highcharts (JavaScript) API <https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/>`__. It provides automatic
data validation, and exposes simple and standardized methods for serializing those Python
objects back-and-forth to JavaScript object literal notation.
**Highcharts Stock for Python** in particular provides support for
the `Highcharts Stock <https://www.highcharts.com/products/stock/>`__ extension, which is
designed to provide rich time series data visualization capabilities optimized for
asset (e.g. stock) price data visualization, with extensive technical indicators and
robust interactivity. For ease of use, it also includes the full functionality of
`Highcharts Core for Python <https://core-docs.highchartspython.com>`__ as well.
Key Highcharts Stock for Python Features
==============================================
* **Clean and consistent API**. No reliance on "hacky" code, ``dict``
and JSON serialization, or impossible to maintain / copy-pasted "spaghetti code".
* **Comprehensive Highcharts support**. Every single Highcharts chart type and every
single configuration option is supported in **Highcharts Stock for Python**. This
includes the over 70 data visualization types supported by
`Highcharts Core <https://www.highcharts.com/product/highcharts/>`__, the specialisted
chart types and 50+ technical indicator visualizations available in
`Highcharts Stock <https://www.highcharts.com/product/stock/>`__.
Every Highcharts for Python library provides full support for the rich JavaScript
formatter (JS callback functions) capabilities that are often needed to get the most
out of Highcharts' visualization and interaction capabilities.
.. note::
**See Also:**
* `Supported Visualizations <https://stock-docs.highchartspython.com/en/latest/visualizations.html>`__
* **Simple JavaScript Code Generation**. With one method call, produce production-ready
JavaScript code to render your interactive visualizations using Highcharts' rich
capabilities.
* **Easy Chart Download**. With one method call, produce high-end static
visualizations that can be downloaded or shared as files with your audience. Produce
static charts using the Highsoft-provided **Highcharts Export Server**, or using your
own private export server as needed.
* **Integration with Pandas and PySpark**. With two lines of code, produce a high-end
interactive visualization of your Pandas or PySpark dataframe.
* **Consistent code style**. For Python developers, switching between Pythonic code
conventions and JavaScript code conventions can be...annoying. So
the Highcharts for Python toolkit applies Pythonic syntax with automatic conversion between
Pythonic ``snake_case`` notation and JavaScript ``camelCase`` styles.

**Highcharts Stock for Python** vs Alternatives
===================================================
For a discussion of **Highcharts Stock for Python** in comparison to alternatives, please see
the **COMPLETE DOCUMENTATION:** https://stock-docs.highchartspython.com/en/latest/index.html
---------------------
********************************
Hello World, and Basic Usage
********************************
1. Import Highcharts Stock for Python
==========================================
.. code-block:: python
# BEST PRACTICE!
# PRECISE LOCATION PATTERN
# This method of importing Highcharts Stock for Python objects yields the fastest
# performance for the import statement. However, it is more verbose and requires
# you to navigate the extensive `Highcharts Stock for Python API.
# Import classes using precise module indications. For example:
from highcharts_stock.chart import Chart
from highcharts_stock.global_options.shared_options import SharedStockOptions
from highcharts_stock.options import HighchartsStockOptions
from highcharts_stock.options.plot_options.bar import BarOptions
from highcharts_stock.options.series.bar import BarSeries
# CATCH-ALL IMPORT PATTERN
# This method of importing **Highcharts Stock for Python** classes has relatively slow
# performance because it imports hundreds of different classes from across the entire
# library. This performance impact may be acceptable to you in your use-case, but
# do use at your own risk.
# Import objects from the catch-all ".highcharts" module.
from highcharts_stock import highcharts
# You can now access specific classes without individual import statements.
highcharts.Chart
highcharts.SharedStockOptions
highcharts.HighchartsStockOptions
highcharts.BarOptions
highcharts.BarSeries
2. Create Your Chart
================================
.. code-block:: python
# from a primitive array, using keyword arguments
my_chart = Chart(data = [[1, 23], [2, 34], [3, 45]],
series_type = 'line')
# from a primitive array, using the .from_array() method
my_chart = Chart.from_array([[1, 23], [2, 34], [3, 45]],
series_type = 'line')
# from a Numpy ndarray, using keyword arguments
my_chart = Chart(data = numpy_array, series_type = 'line')
# from a Numpy ndarray, using the .from_array() method
my_chart = Chart.from_array(data = numpy_array, series_type = 'line')
# from a JavaScript file
my_chart = Chart.from_js_literal('my_js_literal.js')
# from a JSON file
my_chart = Chart.from_json('my_json.json')
# from a Python dict
my_chart = Chart.from_dict(my_dict_obj)
# from a Pandas dataframe
my_chart = Chart.from_pandas(df)
# from a PySpark dataframe
my_chart = Chart.from_pyspark(df,
property_map = {
'x': 'transactionDate',
'y': 'invoiceAmt',
'id': 'id'
},
series_type = 'line')
# from a CSV
my_chart = Chart.from_csv('/some_file_location/filename.csv')
# from a HighchartsOptions configuration object
my_chart = Chart.from_options(my_options)
# from a Series configuration, using keyword arguments
my_chart = Chart(series = my_series)
# from a Series configuration, using .from_series()
my_chart = Chart.from_series(my_series)
3. Configure Global Settings (optional)
=============================================
.. code-block:: python
# Import SharedStockOptions
from highcharts_stock.global_options.shared_options import SharedStockOptions
# from a JavaScript file
my_global_settings = SharedStockOptions.from_js_literal('my_js_literal.js')
# from a JSON file
my_global_settings = SharedStockOptions.from_json('my_json.json')
# from a Python dict
my_global_settings = SharedStockOptions.from_dict(my_dict_obj)
# from a HighchartsOptions configuration object
my_global_settings = SharedStockOptions.from_options(my_options)
4. Configure Your Chart / Global Settings
================================================
.. code-block:: python
from highcharts_core.options.title import Title
from highcharts_core.options.credits import Credits
# EXAMPLE 1.
# Using dicts
my_chart.title = {
'align': 'center',
'floating': True,
'text': 'The Title for My Chart',
'use_html': False,
}
my_chart.credits = {
'enabled': True,
'href': 'https://www.highchartspython.com/',
'position': {
'align': 'center',
'vertical_align': 'bottom',
'x': 123,
'y': 456
},
'style': {
'color': '#cccccc',
'cursor': 'pointer',
'font_size': '9px'
},
'text': 'Chris Modzelewski'
}
# EXAMPLE 2.
# Using direct objects
from highcharts_core.options.title import Title
from highcharts_core.options.credits import Credits
my_title = Title(text = 'The Title for My Chart',
floating = True,
align = 'center')
my_chart.options.title = my_title
my_credits = Credits(text = 'Chris Modzelewski',
enabled = True,
href = 'https://www.highchartspython.com')
my_chart.options.credits = my_credits
5. Generate the JavaScript Code for Your Chart
=================================================
Now having configured your chart in full, you can easily generate the JavaScript code
that will render the chart wherever it is you want it to go:
.. code-block:: python
# as a string
js_as_str = my_chart.to_js_literal()
# to a file (and as a string)
js_as_str = my_chart.to_js_literal(filename = 'my_target_file.js')
6. Generate the JavaScript Code for Your Global Settings (optional)
=========================================================================
.. code-block:: python
# as a string
global_settings_js = my_global_settings.to_js_literal()
# to a file (and as a string)
global_settings_js = my_global_settings.to_js_literal('my_target_file.js')
7. Generate a Static Version of Your Chart
==============================================
.. code-block:: python
# as in-memory bytes
my_image_bytes = my_chart.download_chart(format = 'png')
# to an image file (and as in-memory bytes)
my_image_bytes = my_chart.download_chart(filename = 'my_target_file.png',
format = 'png')
8. Render Your Chart in a Jupyter Notebook
===============================================
.. code-block:: python
my_chart.display()

Configure Your Chart / Global Settings\n================================================\n\n .. code-block:: python\n\n from highcharts_core.options.title import Title\n from highcharts_core.options.credits import Credits\n\n # EXAMPLE 1.\n # Using dicts\n my_chart.title = {\n 'align': 'center',\n 'floating': True,\n 'text': 'The Title for My Chart',\n 'use_html': False,\n }\n\n my_chart.credits = {\n 'enabled': True,\n 'href': 'https://www.highchartspython.com/',\n 'position': {\n 'align': 'center',\n 'vertical_align': 'bottom',\n 'x': 123,\n 'y': 456\n },\n 'style': {\n 'color': '#cccccc',\n 'cursor': 'pointer',\n 'font_size': '9px'\n },\n 'text': 'Chris Modzelewski'\n }\n\n # EXAMPLE 2.\n # Using direct objects\n from highcharts_core.options.title import Title\n from highcharts_core.options.credits import Credits\n\n my_title = Title(text = 'The Title for My Chart',\n floating = True, \n align = 'center')\n my_chart.options.title = my_title\n\n my_credits = Credits(text = 'Chris Modzelewski', \n enabled = True, \n href = 'https://www.highchartspython.com')\n my_chart.options.credits = my_credits\n\n\n5. Generate the JavaScript Code for Your Chart\n=================================================\n\nNow having configured your chart in full, you can easily generate the JavaScript code\nthat will render the chart wherever it is you want it to go:\n\n .. code-block:: python\n\n # as a string\n js_as_str = my_chart.to_js_literal()\n\n # to a file (and as a string)\n js_as_str = my_chart.to_js_literal(filename = 'my_target_file.js')\n\n\n6. Generate the JavaScript Code for Your Global Settings (optional)\n=========================================================================\n\n .. code-block:: python\n\n # as a string\n global_settings_js = my_global_settings.to_js_literal()\n\n # to a file (and as a string)\n global_settings_js = my_global_settings.to_js_literal('my_target_file.js')\n\n\n7. Generate a Static Version of Your Chart\n==============================================\n\n .. code-block:: python\n\n # as in-memory bytes\n my_image_bytes = my_chart.download_chart(format = 'png')\n\n # to an image file (and as in-memory bytes)\n my_image_bytes = my_chart.download_chart(filename = 'my_target_file.png',\n format = 'png')\n\n8. Render Your Chart in a Jupyter Notebook\n===============================================\n\n .. code-block:: python\n\n my_chart.display()\n\n--------------\n\n***********************\nGetting Help/Support\n***********************\n\nThe **Highcharts for Python Toolkit** comes with all of the great support that \nyou are used to from working with the Highcharts JavaScript libraries.
