Zero Centered Bar

The zero centered bar chart is used when you want to compare data against a value that can be set as zero, and the data values you have oscillate back and forth this value.

The Method To Use

The method is s.plt.zero_centered_bar()

It must contain the following input variables:

x: str
order: int
data: Union[str, DataFrame, List[Dict]]

And accepts the following input variables as optional:

y: Optional[List[str]]
x_axis_name: Optional[str]
y_axis_name: Optional[str]
title: Optional[str]
rows_size: Optional[int]
cols_size: Optional[int]
padding: Optional[List[int]]
show_values: Optional[List[str]]
option_modifications: Optional[Dict]

Examples

1. Default Configuration

data = [
    {'Name': 'a', 'y': 5},
    {'Name': 'b', 'y': -7},
    {'Name': 'c', 'y': 3},
    {'Name': 'd', 'y': -5},
]

s.plt.zero_centered_bar(
    data=data, x='Name', order=0,
)

Zero centered bar chart in the default configuration.

2. Customization And Context

It is possible to personalize the title of the chart, its subtitle, its size and add padding. One example could be obtained using:

data = [
    {'Name': '0h', 'level': 2.6},
    {'Name': '3h', 'level': -3},
    {'Name': '6h', 'level': 3.2},
    {'Name': '9h', 'level': -2.9},
    {'Name': '12h', 'level': 3.6},
    {'Name': '15h', 'level': -3.4},
]

s.plt.zero_centered_bar(
    data=data, x='Name',
    order=0, rows_size=2, cols_size=7,
    padding='0,0,0,1', title='Tide level (m)',
)

Note the space before the component with padding='0,0,0,1', the size with rows_size=2, cols_size=7,title='Tide level (m)', and subtitle='West Sector'. The menu_path='zero-centered-bar-tide' was changed also.
