Installation

$ pip install irwin

Examples

Command line

The plot subcommand

Read all data from given file and plot it. Data points are separated by any whitespace character.

$ echo "0,2 1,1 2,0 3,-1 4,1 5,3 6,5 7,7" > data.txt
$ irwin plot data.txt

Give -t scatter to create a scatter plot.

$ python3 -c "import math, random, numpy ; \
      x = numpy.linspace(0, 3 * math.pi, 200) ; \
      y = [v + random.random() / 4 for v in numpy.cos(x)] ; \
      print(' '.join([f'{x},{y}' for x, y in zip(x, y)]))" > data.txt
$ irwin plot -t scatter data.txt

Add more samples by running python3 -c "import random ; print(f'{random.random()},{random.random()}') periodically.

$ irwin plot -t scatter \
      -c "python3 -c \"import random ; print(f'{random.random()},{random.random()}')\"" \
      data.txt

The watch subcommand

Run cat /proc/uptime | awk '{ print \$1 }' periodically any plot its output.

$ irwin watch "cat /proc/uptime | awk '{ print \$1 }'"

This is how to plot the CPU load on a machine with 4 CPUs.

$ irwin watch -a delta -y 0 -Y 100 -s -0.25 -o 100 \
      "head -1 /proc/stat | awk '{ print \$5 }'"

Scripting

Using a canvas

Draw on the canvas and render it. Print the rendered canvas.

import irwin

canvas = irwin.Canvas(width=40,
                      height=20,
                      x_min=0,
                      x_max=10,
                      y_min=0,
                      y_max=10)

# Draw the canvas edges.
canvas.draw_line(0, 0, 0, 10)
canvas.draw_line(0, 10, 10, 10)
canvas.draw_line(10, 10, 10, 0)
canvas.draw_line(10, 0, 0, 0)

# Draw a cross.
canvas.draw_line(0, 0, 10, 10)
canvas.draw_line(0, 10, 10, 0)

# Draw four points.
canvas.draw_point(5, 2.5)
canvas.draw_point(5, 7.5)
canvas.draw_point(2.5, 5)
canvas.draw_point(7.5, 5)

print(canvas.render())
