Bokeh is a data visualization library in Python that provides high-performance interactive charts and plots and the output can be obtained in various mediums like a notebook, HTML and server. Figure Class create a new Figure for plotting. It is a subclass of Plot that simplifies plot creation with default axes, grids, tools, etc.
The diamond_cross() function in the plotting module of the bokeh library is used to Configure and add DiamondCross glyphs to this Figure.
Syntax: diamond_cross(x, y, size=4, angle=0.0, *, angle_units='rad', fill_alpha=1.0, fill_color='gray', line_alpha=1.0, line_cap='butt', line_color='black', line_dash=[], line_dash_offset=0, line_join='bevel', line_width=1, name=None, tags=[], **kwargs)
Parameters: This method accept the following parameters that are described below:
- x: This parameter is the x-coordinates for the center of the markers.
- y: This parameter is the y-coordinates for the center of the markers.
- size: This parameter is the size (diameter) values for the markers in screen space units.
- angle: This parameter is the angles to rotate the markers.
- fill_color: This parameter is the fill color values for the markers.
- line_color: This parameter is the line color values for the markers with default value of black.
- line_dash: This parameter is the line dash values for the markers with default value of [].
- line_join: This parameter is the line join values for the markers with default value of bevel.
- line_width: This parameter is the line width values for the markers with default value of 1.
- name: This parameter is the user-supplied name for this model.
- tags: This parameter is the user-supplied values for this model.
Return: This method return the GlyphRenderer value.
Below examples illustrate the bokeh.plotting.figure.diamond_cross() function in bokeh.plotting:
Example 1:
# Implementation of bokeh function
import numpy as np
from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show
plot = figure(plot_width = 300, plot_height = 300)
plot.diamond_cross(x = [1, 2, 3], y = [3, 7, 5],
size = 20, fill_color = None,
line_color = "green", alpha = 0.9)
show(plot)
Output:
Example 2:
# Implementation of bokeh function
import numpy as np
from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
y = [6, 7, 8, 7, 3]
output_file("geeksforgeeks.html")
p = figure(plot_width = 300, plot_height = 300)
p.line(x, y, line_width = 2)
p.diamond_cross(x, y, fill_color ="red",
line_color ="green", size = 18)
show(p)
