Visualizations Sankey

Animation

PlotAPI Sankey supports animations - both for interactions and for nice introductions to your visualisation.


Sample data

Let's import PlotAPI and load our sample data.

from plotapi import Sankey

links = [
    {"source":"Group A", "target":"Rank 1", "value": 1000},
    {"source":"Group B", "target":"Rank 1", "value": 300},
    {"source":"Group B", "target":"Rank 2", "value": 600},
    {"source":"Group B", "target":"Rank 3", "value": 400},
    {"source":"Rank 1", "target":"Club A", "value": 700},
    {"source":"Rank 1", "target":"Club B", "value": 400},
    {"source":"Rank 1", "target":"Club C", "value": 200},
    {"source":"Rank 2", "target":"Club B", "value": 200},
    {"source":"Rank 2", "target":"Club C", "value": 400},
    {"source":"Rank 3", "target":"Withdrawn", "value": 400},
    {"source":"Club A", "target":"The Most Amazing Prize", "value": 500},
]

Demonstration

Animations can be controlled with the following parameters:

  • animated_intro - If set to True, will play an animation when the visualisaiton is loaded. This works nicely when paired with the.to_mp4() end-point to create a video.
  • animated_duration - The duration of the intro animation in milliseconds.
  • animated_links_speed - The duration of the animation when traversing each link when mousing over a node.
  • animated_hide_speed - The duration of the animation when moving the mouse out of a node.

Let's try both approaches.

Animated interactions and intro

Interact with the visualization to see the new animation speed.

Sankey(
    links,
    animated_intro=True,
    animated_duration=5000,
    animated_links_speed=3000,
    animated_hide_speed=2000,
).show()

Animated intro

Sankey(
    links,
    animated_intro=True,
    animated_duration=5000,
    animated_links_speed=3000,
    animated_hide_speed=2000,
).show_mp4()
