holoviews.util Package¶

util Package¶

class holoviews.util.Dynamic(*args, **params)[source]¶

Bases: param.parameterized.ParameterizedFunction

Dynamically applies a callable to the Elements in any HoloViews object. Will return a DynamicMap wrapping the original map object, which will lazily evaluate when a key is requested. By default Dynamic applies a no-op, making it useful for converting HoloMaps to a DynamicMap.

Any supplied kwargs will be passed to the callable and any streams will be instantiated on the returned DynamicMap. If the supplied operation is a method on a parameterized object which was decorated with parameter dependencies Dynamic will automatically create a stream to watch the parameter changes. This default behavior may be disabled by setting watch=False.

operation = param.Callable(readonly=False)

Operation or user-defined callable to apply dynamically

kwargs = param.Dict(readonly=False)

Keyword arguments passed to the function.

link_inputs = param.Boolean(readonly=False)

If Dynamic is applied to another DynamicMap, determines whether linked streams attached to its Callable inputs are transferred to the output of the utility. For example if the Dynamic utility is applied to a DynamicMap with an RangeXY, this switch determines whether the corresponding visualization should update this stream with range changes originating from the newly generated axes.

link_dataset = param.Boolean(readonly=False)

Determines whether the output of the operation should inherit the .dataset property of the input to the operation. Helpful for tracking data providence for user supplied functions, which do not make use of the clone method. Should be disabled for operations where the output is not derived from the input and instead depends on some external state.

shared_data = param.Boolean(readonly=False)

Whether the cloned DynamicMap will share the same cache.

streams = param.ClassSelector(readonly=False)

List of streams to attach to the returned DynamicMap

class holoviews.util.opts(*args, **params)[source]¶

Bases: param.parameterized.ParameterizedFunction

Utility function to set options at the global level or to provide an Options object that can be used with the .options method of an element or container.

Option objects can be generated and validated in a tab-completable way (in appropriate environments such as Jupyter notebooks) using completers such as opts.Curve, opts.Image, opts.Overlay, etc.

To set opts globally you can pass these option objects into opts.defaults:

opts.defaults(*options)

For instance:

opts.defaults(opts.Curve(color=’red’))

To set opts on a specific object, you can supply these option objects to the .options method.

For instance:

curve = hv.Curve([1,2,3]) curve.options(opts.Curve(color=’red’))

The options method also accepts lists of Option objects.

strict = param.Boolean(readonly=False)

Whether to be strict about the options specification. If not set to strict (default), any invalid keywords are simply skipped. If strict, invalid keywords prevent the options being applied.

classmethod apply_groups(obj, options=None, backend=None, clone=True, **kwargs)[source]¶

Applies nested options definition grouped by type.

Applies options on an object or nested group of objects, returning a new object with the options applied. This method accepts the separate option namespaces explicitly (i.e. ‘plot’, ‘style’, and ‘norm’).

If the options are to be set directly on the object a simple format may be used, e.g.:

opts.apply_groups(obj, style={‘cmap’: ‘viridis’},

plot={‘show_title’: False})

If the object is nested the options must be qualified using a type[.group][.label] specification, e.g.:

opts.apply_groups(obj, {‘Image’: {‘plot’: {‘show_title’: False},

‘style’: {‘cmap’: ‘viridis}}})

If no opts are supplied all options on the object will be reset.

Args:

options (dict): Options specification

Options specification should be indexed by type[.group][.label] or option type (‘plot’, ‘style’, ‘norm’).

backend (optional): Backend to apply options to

Defaults to current selected backend

clone (bool, optional): Whether to clone object

Options can be applied inplace with clone=False

**kwargs: Keywords of options by type

holoviews.util.render(obj, backend=None, **kwargs)[source]¶

Renders the HoloViews object to the corresponding object in the specified backend, e.g. a Matplotlib or Bokeh figure.

The backend defaults to the currently declared default backend. The resulting object can then be used with other objects in the specified backend. For instance, if you want to make a multi-part Bokeh figure using a plot type only available in HoloViews, you can use this function to return a Bokeh figure that you can use like any hand-constructed Bokeh figure in a Bokeh layout.

obj: HoloViews object

The HoloViews object to render

backend: string

A valid HoloViews rendering backend

**kwargs: dict

Additional keyword arguments passed to the renderer, e.g. fps for animations

renderered:

holoviews.util.renderer(name)[source]¶

Helper utility to access the active renderer for a given extension.

holoviews.util.save(obj, filename, fmt='auto', backend=None, resources='cdn', toolbar=None, title=None, **kwargs)[source]¶

Saves the supplied object to file.

The available output formats depend on the backend being used. By default and if the filename is a string the output format will be inferred from the file extension. Otherwise an explicit format will need to be specified. For ambiguous file extensions such as html it may be necessary to specify an explicit fmt to override the default, e.g. in the case of ‘html’ output the widgets will default to fmt=’widgets’, which may be changed to scrubber widgets using fmt=’scrubber’.

obj: HoloViews object

The HoloViews object to save to file

filename: string or IO object

The filename or BytesIO/StringIO object to save to

fmt: string

The format to save the object as, e.g. png, svg, html, or gif and if widgets are desired either ‘widgets’ or ‘scrubber’

backend: string

A valid HoloViews rendering backend, e.g. bokeh or matplotlib

resources: string or bokeh.resource.Resources

Bokeh resources used to load bokehJS components. Defaults to CDN, to embed resources inline for offline usage use ‘inline’ or bokeh.resources.INLINE.

toolbar: bool or None

Whether to include toolbars in the exported plot. If None, display the toolbar unless fmt is png and backend is bokeh. If True, always include the toolbar. If False, do not include the toolbar.

title: string

Custom title for exported HTML file

**kwargs: dict

Additional keyword arguments passed to the renderer, e.g. fps for animations

command Module¶

python -m holoviews.util.command Conversion_Example.ipynb OR holoviews Conversion_Example.ipynb

parser Module¶

The magics offered by the HoloViews IPython extension are powerful and support rich, compositional specifications. To avoid the the brittle, convoluted code that results from trying to support the syntax in pure Python, this file defines suitable parsers using pyparsing that are cleaner and easier to understand.

Pyparsing is required by matplotlib and will therefore be available if HoloViews is being used in conjunction with matplotlib.

class holoviews.util.parser.CompositorSpec[source]¶

Bases: holoviews.util.parser.Parser

The syntax for defining a set of compositor is as follows:

[ mode op(spec) [settings] value ]+

The components are:

mode : Operation mode, either ‘data’ or ‘display’. group : Value identifier with capitalized initial letter. op : The name of the operation to apply. spec : Overlay specification of form (A * B) where A and B are

dotted path specifications.

settingsOptional list of keyword arguments to be used as

parameters to the operation (in square brackets).

classmethod collect_tokens(parseresult, mode)¶

Collect the tokens from a (potentially) nested parse result.

classmethod parse(line, ns={})[source]¶

Parse compositor specifications, returning a list Compositors

classmethod todict(parseresult, mode='parens', ns={})¶

Helper function to return dictionary given the parse results from a pyparsing.nestedExpr object (containing keywords).

The ns is a dynamic namespace (typically the IPython Notebook namespace) used to update the class-level namespace.

class holoviews.util.parser.OptsSpec[source]¶

Bases: holoviews.util.parser.Parser

An OptsSpec is a string specification that describes an OptionTree. It is a list of tree path specifications (using dotted syntax) separated by keyword lists for any of the style, plotting or normalization options. These keyword lists are denoted ‘plot(..)’, ‘style(…)’ and ‘norm(…)’ respectively. These three groups may be specified even more concisely using keyword lists delimited by square brackets, parentheses and braces respectively. All these sets are optional and may be supplied in any order.

For instance, the following string:

Image (interpolation=None) plot(show_title=False) Curve style(color=’r’)

Would specify an OptionTree where Image has “interpolation=None” for style and ‘show_title=False’ for plot options. The Curve has a style set such that color=’r’.

The parser is fairly forgiving; commas between keywords are optional and additional spaces are often allowed. The only restriction is that keywords must be immediately followed by the ‘=’ sign (no space).

classmethod apply_deprecations(path)[source]¶

Convert any potentially deprecated paths and issue appropriate warnings

classmethod collect_tokens(parseresult, mode)¶

Collect the tokens from a (potentially) nested parse result.

classmethod parse(line, ns={})[source]¶

Parse an options specification, returning a dictionary with path keys and {‘plot’:<options>, ‘style’:<options>} values.

classmethod parse_options(line, ns={})[source]¶

Similar to parse but returns a list of Options objects instead of the dictionary format.

classmethod process_normalization(parse_group)[source]¶

Given a normalization parse group (i.e. the contents of the braces), validate the option list and compute the appropriate integer value for the normalization plotting option.

classmethod todict(parseresult, mode='parens', ns={})¶

Helper function to return dictionary given the parse results from a pyparsing.nestedExpr object (containing keywords).

The ns is a dynamic namespace (typically the IPython Notebook namespace) used to update the class-level namespace.
