API Docs

Proto REPL Charts is an Atom plugin that extends Proto REPL and allows you to display tables and graphs of results from executed Clojure Code.

Execute this in Proto REPL:

(proto-repl-charts.charts/line-chart
 "Trigonometry"
 {"sin" (map #(Math/sin %) (range 0.0 6.0 0.2))
  "cos" (map #(Math/cos %) (range 0.0 6.0 0.2))})

... and display this:

Installation

Install Proto REPL.
apm install proto-repl-charts or go to your Atom settings, select "+ Install" and search for "proto-repl-charts".

Usage

Proto REPL Charts are invoked from Clojure code run in Proto REPL. A very small Clojure library, proto-repl-charts, defines a namespace prc with functions for displaying different charts.

1. Add proto-repl-charts as a dependency in your Clojure project.

(Not necessary for self hosted REPL. The dependency is already available.)

Add to your dependencies in your project.clj file.

(Proto REPL comes with a default Clojure project. If you bring open a new Atom window for and start a REPL it will already have proto-repl-charts dependency loaded and available.)

2. Start the REPL in Proto REPL and wait for it to come up.

3. Execute one of the functions in the `proto-repl-charts.<chart-type-ns>` namespace. See the examples below.

The chart functions are all of the form (proto-repl-charts.<chart-type-ns>/<function-name> <tab-name> <series-map> <[options]>)

chart-type-ns - one of canvas, charts, graph, or table
function-name - the name of the function to invoke
tab-name - is the name of the chart to put in the Atom tab. Repeated execution will replace the chart in the tab with the matching name.
series-map - should be a map of series names to a sequence of values for that series. For example {"alpha" [1 2 3], "beta" [2 4 5]} would display two series named alpha and beta with the values 1, 2, and 3 for alpha and 2, 4, and 5 for beta.
options - an optional map of display options. The only option supported right now is :labels which is a list of labels. The index of the label in the list corresponds to the index of the values in the series.

Displaying a Line Chart

(let [input-values (range 0.0 6.0 0.5)]
  (proto-repl-charts.charts/line-chart
   "Trigonometry"
   {"sin" (map #(Math/sin %) input-values)
    "cos" (map #(Math/cos %) input-values)}
   {:labels input-values}))

line chart

Displaying a Bar Chart

(proto-repl-charts.charts/bar-chart
  "GDP_By_Year"
  {"2013" [16768 9469 4919 3731]
   "2014" [17418 10380 4616 3859]}
  {:labels ["US" "China" "Japan" "Germany"]})

Displaying a Scatter Chart

(let [tlr (java.util.concurrent.ThreadLocalRandom/current)]
  (proto-repl-charts.charts/scatter-chart
   "Randoms"
   {:gaussian (repeatedly 200 #(.nextGaussian tlr))
    :uniform  (repeatedly 200 #(.nextDouble tlr))}))

Displaying a Custom Chart

Displays a custom chart in a tab with the given name. C3 is the charting library used. The chart config will be converted from Clojure to a JavaScript object and passed to C3. It can be any configuration data C3 supports. See C3 examples for more.

(proto-repl-charts.charts/custom-chart
  "Custom"
  {:data {:columns
          [["data1" 30 20 50 40 60 50]
           ["data2" 200 130 90 240 130 220]
           ["data3" 300 200 160 400 250 250]
           ["data4" 200 130 90 240 130 220]
           ["data5" 130 120 150 140 160 150]
           ["data6" 90 70 20 50 60 120]]
          :type "bar"
          :types {:data3 "spline"
                  :data4 "line"
                  :data6 "area"}
          :groups [["data1" "data2"]]}})

Displaying a Table

Proto REPL Charts can display a table of data that can be sorted by individual columns. The row data can either be a sequence of sequences or a sequence of maps.

(proto-repl-charts.table/table
  "Users"
  [{:name "Jane" :age 24 :favorite-color :blue}
   {:name "Matt" :age 28 :favorite-color :red}
   {:name "Austin" :age 56 :favorite-color :green}
   {:name "Lisa" :age 32 :favorite-color :green}
   {:name "Peter" :age 32 :favorite-color :green}])

Displaying a Graph

Graphs of networks of nodes and edges can be displayed using the proto-repl-charts.graph/graph function.

See Graphs for details.

Drawing on a Canvas

Proto REPL Charts supports building more complex visualizations by drawing on an HTML canvas embedded within Atom using the proto-repl-charts.canvas/draw function.

See Canvas for details.
