📦 Installation
pip install tkchart
import tkchart
🚀 Quick Start
import tkinter as tk
import tkchart
import random
import threading
import time
root = tk.Tk()
# 1. Create the chart
chart = tkchart.LineChart(
master=root,
x_axis_values=("a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f"),
y_axis_values=(100, 900)
)
chart.place(x=10, y=10)
# 2. Create a line
line = tkchart.Line(master=chart)
# 3. Stream data in a background thread
def loop():
while True:
chart.show_data(line=line, data=[random.choice(range(100, 900))])
time.sleep(1)
threading.Thread(target=loop, daemon=True).start()
