Generating charts with ReportLab

[carole...@gmail.com]

I had the need to generate a few different types of charts using
ReportLab. The wiki only had a sample of a Horizontal Bar Chart, so
I've added a new sample on how to produce a Line Chart...
http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Charts

If anyone is interested in a sample for a Pie or Scatter chart, let me
know, and I can add samples of these as well.

I would say, go ahead and add them, as I'm sure many people will find
them useful at some point.

Thanks,

David

Hey Carole,
A guy called Toby has put something together using R and rpy that does graphs... I haven't been able to make it work as yet, but he's keen to move on with it, and wants some testers and some help!
Check out: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/43eafd773734acb6/31748b7c9487ba0a?lnk=gst&q=contrib+namespace+r&rnum=1#31748b7c9487ba0a
or just have a look through your gmail for Re: Graphs and django.
(The search string "contrib namespace r" worked for me.)

Hey Ben...thanks...I'll check that out.

We'll most likely continue to use ReportLab for our project, as we are
using the graphs in some reports we are going to export to PDF... but
looks like an interesting read :)

I'll also add the other two samples to the wiki this week...

Hi Carole,
Just FYI as they are kind of related topics, I've created a project called django-reports with some of my code for reporting on your django objects. I thought you might find it interesting and integration with reportlabs would be a cool feature for the future. See my other message to the group or the link for more details. To everyone else: Sorry for the double message for those of you not using gmail :-)

This library looks pretty nice too... for graphs... if you decide not
to go the reportlab route. I haven't fiddled with it any, but was
looking over the docs and it looks promising:
