Easy terminal plotting.

A terminal plotting library for quick and easy visualisation.

Granite

A library for producing terminal plots. It depends only on Haskell's base and text (only for efficieny but it could use String. In fact, we expose an API that uses String for easier use in GHCi) packages so it should be easy to use and install.

Supported graph types

• Scatter plots
• Histograms
• (Stacked) bar charts
• Pie charts
• Box plots
• Line charts
• Heat maps

Examples

Scatter plot

import           Control.Monad
import           System.Random.Stateful

import Granite.String

main :: IO ()
main = do
  g <- newIOGenM =<< newStdGen
  let range = (0 :: Double, 1 :: Double)
  ptsA_x <- replicateM 600 (uniformRM range g)
  ptsA_y <- replicateM 600 (uniformRM range g)
  ptsB_x <- replicateM 600 (uniformRM range g)
  ptsB_y <- replicateM 600 (uniformRM range g)
  putStrLn (scatter "Random points" [series "A" (zip ptsA_x ptsA_y), series "B" (zip ptsB_x ptsB_y)]
            defPlot{widthChars=68,heightChars=22,plotTitle="Random points"})
