hvPlot: how to render multi-index as nested x-axis?

hvPlot

#1

I have a dataframe on which I operate a groupby, let say:

df = df.groupby([df.index.weekday, df.index.hour]).mean()

        Quantity
day  hour           
WE  0     12
    1     13
    2     14.5
    3     17
    4     22
           Quantity
day hour           
WE  0     5
    1     9.5
    2     17
    3     35
    4     14

When plotting this dataframe, I would expect a graph with nested categories as per this bokeh exemple but holoviews ignore the index and just display number from 1 to 48.

Help would be welcome

Hi @akasolace

Welcome to the community. Could you please provide a minimum, reproducible example to try to start from? This would make it much easier to try to help. Thanks.

The solution might be to reset_index without dropping. Then you can use the day and hour as kdims for HoloViews.

import holoviews as hv
import pandas as pd

data=pd.DataFrame([
    ("Monday", 0, 1.0),
    ("Monday", 1, 2.0),
    ("Monday", 2, 3.0),
    ("Monday", 3, 4.0),
    ("Tuesday", 0, 1.0),
    ("Tuesday", 1, 2.0),
    ("Tuesday", 2, 3.0),
    ("Tuesday", 3, 4.0),
],
 columns=["day", "hour", "value"])

plot = hv.Bars(data, kdims=["day", "hour"], vdims="value")
plot.opts(height=500, cmap=["#0072B5", "#3D4756", "#A1ACBD", "#E782A5"], tools=["hover"])

import panel as pn
pn.extension(sizing_mode="stretch_width", template="fast")
pn.state.template.param.update(site="Awesome Panel", title="Plotting a multi index dataframe using HoloViews")
pn.panel(plot).servable()
