Daru::View

Daru (Data Analysis in RUby) is a library for analysis, manipulation and visualization of data. Daru-view is for easy and interactive plotting in web application & IRuby notebook. It can work in frameworks like Rails, Sinatra, Nanoc and hopefully in others too.

It is a plugin gem to Data Analysis in RUby(Daru) for visualisation of data

Examples :

IRuby notebook examples

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'daru-view', git: 'https://github.com/Shekharrajak/daru-view.git'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install daru-view

Usage

Use in IRuby notebook

Create separate folder and Gemfile inside it. Add minimum these lines in it

source "http://rubygems.org"

# iruby dependencies
gem 'rbczmq'
gem 'ffi-rzmq'
gem 'iruby'

# fetch from the github master branch
gem 'daru', :git => 'https://github.com/SciRuby/daru.git'
gem 'daru-view', :git => 'https://github.com/shekharrajak/daru-view.git'

Now do bundle install and run iruby notebook
You may like to try some examples that is added in specs : spec/dummy_iruby/

Use in web application

Rails application

Add this line in your Gemfile :

gem 'daru-view', :git => 'https://github.com/shekharrajak/daru-view.git'

In controller, do the data analysis process using daru operations and get the DataFrame/Vectors.
Set a plotting library using e.g. Daru::View.plotting_library = :highcharts
In view, add the required JS files (for the plotting library), in head tag (generally) using the line , e.g. : Daru::View.dependent_script(:highcharts)
Plot library using by passing data and options :

HighCharts example :

# set the library, to plot charts
Daru::View.plotting_library = :highcharts

# options for the charts
opts = {
      chart: {defaultSeriesType: 'line'},
      title: {
        text: 'Solar Employment Growth by Sector, 2010-2016'
        },

      subtitle: {
          text: 'Source: thesolarfoundation.com'
      },

      yAxis: {
          title: {
              text: 'Number of Employees'
          }
      },
      legend: {
          layout: 'vertical',
          align: 'right',
          verticalAlign: 'middle'
      },

      plotOptions: {
          # this is not working. Find the bug
          # series: {
          #     pointStart: 43934
          # }
      },
  }

# data for the charts
series_dt = ([{
      name: 'Tokyo',
      data: [7.0, 6.9, 9.5, 14.5, 18.4, 21.5, 25.2, 26.5, 23.3, 18.3, 13.9, 9.6]
  }, {
      name: 'London',
      data: [3.9, 4.2, 5.7, 8.5, 11.9, 15.2, 17.0, 16.6, 14.2, 10.3, 6.6, 4.8]
  }])

# initialize
line_graph = Daru::View::Plot.new(series_dt, opts)

# Add this line in your view file, where you want to see you graph in web application. (It will put the html code of the line graph in web page)

<%=raw line_graph.div %>

# Now refresh the page, you will be able to see your graph.

Nyaplot example :

# set the library, to plot charts (Default it is nyaplot only)
Daru::View.plotting_library = :nyaplot


# options for the charts
opts = {
  type: :bar
}

# Vector data for the charts
data_vector = Daru::Vector.new [:a, :a, :a, :b, :b, :c], type: :category
data_df = Daru::DataFrame.new({
  a: [1, 2, 4, -2, 5, 23, 0],
  b: [3, 1, 3, -6, 2, 1, 0],
  c: ['I', 'II', 'I', 'III', 'I', 'III', 'II']
  })
data_df.to_category :c

# initialize
bar_graph1 = Daru::View::Plot.new(data_vector ,opts)
bar_graph2 = Daru::View::Plot.new(data_df, type: :bar, x: :c)

# Add this line in your view file, where you want to see you graph in web application. (It will put the html code of the line graph in web page)

<%=raw bar_graph1.div %>
<%=raw bar_graph2.div %>

# Now refresh the page, you will be able to see your graph.

User can try examples added in spec/dummy_rails. To setup the rails app run following commands :

bundle install
bundle exec rails s
