VERSION
version 0.017
SYNOPSIS
use Chart::Plotly 'show_plot';
my $data = { x => [ 1 .. 10 ],
mode => 'markers',
type => 'scatter'
};
$data->{'y'} = [ map { rand 10 } @{ $data->{'x'} } ];
show_plot([$data]);
use aliased 'Chart::Plotly::Trace::Scattergl';
my $big_array = [ 1 .. 10000 ];
my $scattergl = Scattergl->new( x => $big_array, y => [ map { rand 100 } @$big_array ] );
show_plot([$scattergl]);
use Chart::Plotly qw(show_plot);
use PDL;
use aliased 'Chart::Plotly::Trace::Surface';
my $size = 25;
my $x = ( xvals zeroes $size+ 1, $size + 1 ) / $size;
my $y = ( yvals zeroes $size+ 1, $size + 1 ) / $size;
my $z = 0.5 + 0.5 * ( sin( $x * 6.3 ) * sin( $y * 6.3 ) )**3; # Bumps
my $surface = Surface->new( x => $x, y => $y, z => $z );
show_plot([$surface]);
use PDL::Math;
my $bessel_size = 50;
my $bessel = Surface->new(
x => xvals($bessel_size),
y => xvals($bessel_size),
z => bessj0( rvals( zeroes( $bessel_size, $bessel_size ) ) / 2 )
);
show_plot([$bessel]);
DESCRIPTION
Generate html/javascript charts from perl data using javascript library plotly.js. The result is a file that you could see in your favourite browser.

- Anything that could be serialized to JSON with the json expected by plotly.js
- Object that could be adapted using Chart::Plotly::Adapter::*
html_plot
Return the html for the plot or plots
Parameters
Data to be represented. The format is the same as the parameter data in render_full_html. Accepts multiple traces/plots/objects.
show_plot
Opens the plot or plots in a browser locally
Parameters
Data to be represented. The format is the same as the parameter data in render_full_html. Accepts multiple traces/plots/objects.

Please report any bugs or feature requests via github: https://github.com/pablrod/p5-Chart-Plotly/issues

This is an unofficial Plotly Perl module. Currently I'm not affiliated in any way with Plotly. But I think plotly.js is a great library and I want to use it with perl.
