Display negative numbers as positive numbers in bar type ECharts

Panel
1

Hello All,

I am trying to make the following EChart within panel: Examples - Apache ECharts
However, I would like to display the negative numbers as positive numbers, without affecting their positioning.

As shown here, “-210” to be listed as “210”.

The code is here:

import panel as pn
pn.extension(sizing_mode="stretch_width")


echart_demo = option = {
  'tooltip': {
    'trigger': 'axis',
    'axisPointer': {
      'type': 'shadow'
    }
  },
  'legend': {
    'data': ['Profit', 'Expenses', 'Income']
  },
  'grid': {
    'left': '3%',
    'right': '4%',
    'bottom': '3%',
    'containLabel': True
  },
  'xAxis': [
    {
      'type': 'value'
    }
  ],
  'yAxis': [
    {
      'type': 'category',
      'axisTick': {
        'show': False
      },
      'data': ['Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat', 'Sun']
    }
  ],
  'series': [
    {
      'name': 'Profit',
      'type': 'bar',
      'label': {
        'show': True,
        'position': 'inside'

      'data': [-120, -132, -101, -134, -190, -230, -210]
    }
  ]
}


echart_pane = pn.pane.ECharts(echart_demo, height=480, width=640)

template = pn.template.FastListTemplate(
    site="Demo",
    title="",
    main=[pn.Row(echart_pane)]
)

template.servable()

Thank you in advance for any hints!

Hi @sorin

There are really two questions here :slight_smile:

How to format series labels in Echarts

Answer: Javascript label formatter function. See series-line.label docs

You will need to add a javascript function like

to your configuration. But how?

How to use a javascript function in your Echarts configuration with Panel

Answer: Custom ReactiveHTML implementation of ECharts.

I got inspiration from panel/echarts.ts.

There is a request to support javascript function with the ECharts pane here Support JsCode in ECharts when using dicts or pyecharts objects · Issue #2634 · holoviz/panel (github.com).

Thank you, @Marc - your suggestion worked. To be honest, is a bit strange that for something so little as showing negative as positive, there is so much code behind.

You already answered also to what I wanted to ask next: how to use functions, in a similar way as they are used in ECharts.

Maybe it would be a good idea if this particular example of using functions is added to the panel documentation, perhaps here: ECharts — Panel v0.14.0a11.

Thank you!
