Quick Run

Define a timeseries

from datetime import timedelta
from mockseries.trend import LinearTrend
from mockseries.seasonality import SinusoidalSeasonality
from mockseries.noise import RedNoise

trend = LinearTrend(coefficient=2, time_unit=timedelta(days=4), flat_base=100)
seasonality = SinusoidalSeasonality(amplitude=20, period=timedelta(days=7)) \
              + SinusoidalSeasonality(amplitude=4, period=timedelta(days=1))
noise = RedNoise(mean=0, std=3, correlation=0.5)

timeseries = trend + seasonality + noise

Generate values

from datetime import datetime
from mockseries.utils import datetime_range

ts_index = datetime_range(
    granularity=timedelta(hours=1),
    start_time=datetime(2021, 5, 31),
    end_time=datetime(2021, 8, 30),
)
ts_values = timeseries.generate(ts_index)

Plot or write to csv

from mockseries.utils import plot_timeseries, write_csv

print(ts_index, ts_values)
plot_timeseries(ts_index, ts_values, save_path="hello_mockseries.png")
write_csv(ts_index, ts_values, "hello_mockseries.csv")
