class holoviews.plotting.Renderer(*, backend, center, css, dpi, fig, fps, holomap, mode, post_render_hooks, size, widget_location, widget_mode, info_fn, key_fn, name)[source]#

Bases: Exporter

The job of a Renderer is to turn the plotting state held within Plot classes into concrete, visual output in the form of the PNG, SVG, MP4 or WebM formats (among others). Note that a Renderer is a type of Exporter and must therefore follow the Exporter interface.

The Renderer needs to be able to use the .state property of the appropriate Plot classes associated with that renderer in order to generate output. The process of ‘drawing’ is execute by the Plots and the Renderer turns the final plotting state into output.

`links` Module#

class holoviews.plotting.links.DataLink(source, target=None, **params)[source]#

Bases: Link

DataLink defines a link in the data between two objects allowing them to be selected together. In order for a DataLink to be established the source and target data must be of the same length.

link()[source]#: Registers the Link

classmethod register_callback(backend, callback)[source]#: Register a LinkCallback providing the implementation for the Link for a particular backend.

unlink()[source]#: Unregisters the Link

class holoviews.plotting.links.Link(source, target=None, **params)[source]#

Bases: Parameterized

A Link defines some connection between a source and target object in their visualization. It is quite similar to a Stream as it allows defining callbacks in response to some change or event on the source object, however, unlike a Stream, it does not transfer data and make it available to user defined subscribers. Instead a Link directly causes some action to occur on the target, for JS based backends this usually means that a corresponding JS callback will effect some change on the target in response to a change on the source.

A Link must define a source object which is what triggers events, but must not define a target. It is also possible to define bi- directional links between the source and target object.

classmethod register_callback(backend, callback)[source]#: Register a LinkCallback providing the implementation for the Link for a particular backend.

unlink()[source]#: Unregisters the Link

apply_extents = param.Boolean(allow_refs=False, default=True, label=’Apply extents’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b5cd990>): Whether to apply extent overrides on the Elements
bgcolor = param.ClassSelector(allow_None=True, allow_refs=False, class_=(<class ‘str’>, <class ‘tuple’>), label=’Bgcolor’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b529d50>): If set bgcolor overrides the background color of the axis.
default_span = param.ClassSelector(allow_refs=False, class_=(<class ‘int’>, <class ‘float’>, <class ‘tuple’>), default=2.0, label=’Default span’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b5ce0d0>): Defines the span of an axis if the axis range is zero, i.e. if the lower and upper end of an axis are equal or no range is defined at all. For example if there is a single datapoint at 0 a default_span of 2.0 will result in axis ranges spanning from -1 to 1.
hooks = param.HookList(allow_refs=False, bounds=(0, None), default=[], label=’Hooks’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16ae1d650>): Optional list of hooks called when finalizing a plot. The hook is passed the plot object and the displayed element, and other plotting handles can be accessed via plot.handles.
invert_axes = param.Boolean(allow_refs=False, default=False, label=’Invert axes’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b529450>): Whether to invert the x- and y-axis
invert_xaxis = param.Boolean(allow_refs=False, default=False, label=’Invert xaxis’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b5b9b90>): Whether to invert the plot x-axis.
invert_yaxis = param.Boolean(allow_refs=False, default=False, label=’Invert yaxis’, nested_refs=False, rx=<param.reactive.reactive_ops object at 0x16b52b6d0>): Whether to invert the plot y-axis.

To compute padding, the axis whose screen size is largest is chosen, and the range of that axis is increased by the specified fraction along each axis. Other axes are then padded ensuring that the amount of screen space devoted to padding is equal for all axes. If specified as a tuple, the int or float values in the tuple will be used for padding in each axis, in order (x,y or x,y,z). For example, for padding=0.2 on a 800x800-pixel plot, an x-axis with the range [0,10] will be padded by 20% to be [-1,11], while a y-axis with a range [0,1000] will be padded to be [-100,1100], which should make the padding be approximately the same number of pixels. But if the same plot is changed to have a height of only 200, the y-range will then be [-400,1400] so that the y-axis padding will still match that of the x-axis. It is also possible to declare non-equal padding value for the lower and upper bound of an axis by supplying nested tuples, e.g. padding=(0.1, (0, 0.1)) will pad the x-axis lower and upper bound as well as the y-axis upper bound by a fraction of 0.1 while the y-axis lower bound is not padded at all.

compute_ranges(obj, key, ranges)[source]#: Given an object, a specific key, and the normalization options, this method will find the specified normalization options on the appropriate OptionTree, group the elements according to the selected normalization option (i.e. either per frame or over the whole animation) and finally compute the dimension ranges in each group. The new set of ranges is returned.

get_aspect(xspan, yspan)[source]#: Should define the aspect ratio of the plot.

get_extents(element, ranges, range_type='combined', dimension=None, xdim=None, ydim=None, zdim=None, lims_as_soft_ranges=False, **kwargs)[source]#

Gets the extents for the axes from the current Element. The globally computed ranges can optionally override the extents.

The extents are computed by combining the data ranges, extents and dimension ranges. Each of these can be obtained individually by setting the range_type to one of:

‘data’: Just the data ranges
‘extents’: Element.extents
‘soft’: Dimension.soft_range values
‘hard’: Dimension.range values

To obtain the combined range, which includes range padding the default may be used:

‘combined’: All the range types combined and padding applied

This allows Overlay plots to obtain each range and combine them appropriately for all the objects in the overlay.

If lims_as_soft_ranges is set to True, the xlim and ylim will be treated as soft ranges instead of the default case as hard ranges while computing the extents. This is used e.g. when apply_hard_bounds is True and xlim/ylim is set, in which case we limit the initial viewable range to xlim/ylim, but allow navigation up to the abs max between the data range and xlim/ylim.

get_padding(obj, extents)[source]#: Computes padding along the axes taking into account the plot aspect.

get_zorder(overlay, key, el)[source]#: Computes the z-order of element in the NdOverlay taking into account possible batching of elements.

holoviews.plotting.util.is_dynamic_overlay(dmap)[source]#: Traverses a DynamicMap graph and determines if any components were overlaid dynamically (i.e. by * on a DynamicMap).

holoviews.plotting.util.isoverlay_fn(obj)[source]#: Determines whether object is a DynamicMap returning (Nd)Overlay types.

holoviews.plotting.util.linear_gradient(start_hex, finish_hex, n=10)[source]#: Interpolates the color gradient between to hex colors

holoviews.plotting.util.list_cmaps(provider=None, records=False, name=None, category=None, source=None, bg=None, reverse=None)[source]#: Return colormap names matching the specified filters.

holoviews.plotting.util.map_colors(arr, crange, cmap, hex=True)[source]#: Maps an array of values to RGB hex strings, given a color range and colormap.

holoviews.plotting.util.mplcmap_to_palette(cmap, ncolors=None, categorical=False)[source]#: Converts a matplotlib colormap to palette of RGB hex strings.”

holoviews.plotting.util.overlay_depth(obj)[source]#: Computes the depth of a DynamicMap overlay if it can be determined otherwise return None.

holoviews.plotting.util.polylinear_gradient(colors, n)[source]#: Interpolates the color gradients between a list of hex colors.

holoviews.plotting.util.process_cmap(cmap, ncolors=None, provider=None, categorical=False)[source]#: Convert valid colormap specifications to a list of colors.

holoviews.plotting.util.register_cmaps(category, provider, source, bg, names)[source]#

Maintain descriptions of colormaps that include the following information:

name - string name for the colormap category - intended use or purpose, mostly following matplotlib provider - package providing the colormap directly source - original source or creator of the colormaps bg - base/background color expected for the map

(‘light’,’dark’,’medium’,’any’ (unknown or N/A))

holoviews.plotting.util.resample_palette(palette, ncolors, categorical, cmap_categorical)[source]#: Resample the number of colors in a palette to the selected number.

holoviews.plotting.util.rgb2hex(rgb)[source]#: Convert RGB(A) tuple to hex.

holoviews.plotting.util.scale_fontsize(size, scaling)[source]#: Scales a numeric or string font size.

holoviews.plotting.util.split_dmap_overlay(obj, depth=0)[source]#: Splits a DynamicMap into the original component layers it was constructed from by traversing the graph to search for dynamically overlaid components (i.e. constructed by using * on a DynamicMap). Useful for assigning subplots of an OverlayPlot the streams that are responsible for driving their updates. Allows the OverlayPlot to determine if a stream update should redraw a particular subplot.

holoviews.plotting.util.traverse_setter(obj, attribute, value)[source]#: Traverses the object and sets the supplied attribute on the object. Supports Dimensioned and DimensionedPlot types.

holoviews.plotting.util.undisplayable_info(obj, html=False)[source]#: Generate helpful message regarding an undisplayable object

holoviews.plotting.util.within_range(range1, range2)[source]#: Checks whether range1 is within the range specified by range2.
