I like gnuplot which makes it pretty easy to create a wide
variety of plots.


I know gnuplot; what is the support for python?

I use it extensively in conjunction with python, buiding gnuplot files and
data that are then used to generate image files.



Ok, I took a look at it. However, my problem is that it forces me to
install gnuplot also (am I wrong?)

Since I'm working on a vertical product, which is already complex to
install, I would avoid adding another tool...

Thanks for your feedback, anyway.

Google. gnuplot python

It's not hard.

It's a lot harder to avoid making posts like this. If all that I
needed was to get some package for creating charts using python (and
Zope) , I could have completly avoided my post. What I was looking for
(and most of the person which answered did) was to have someone which
actually used the packages, or, better, were using it at the moment.

I can see that there is a package for python with gnuplot. But is it
used? Is it stable? Have it been used inside Zope environment?

Regards
Marco

Oh,  a pure python product ;)

That's great. I think I'm looking forward to make some tests with it.

Hi all.

I'm looking for an alternative to python gdchart for barchart/piechart
in a web application. I'm looking to python gdchart 2, but I'm not
sure on the status of maintenance of the project itself.

Can someone provide advice?

You might want to look at ChartDirector (http://www.advsofteng.com).
It isn't opensource, but it has many features, works with Python well,
and is free if you don't mind a small watermark in your charts. The
license is reasonable, too.

I use it extensively in conjunction with python, buiding gnuplot files and
data that are then used to generate image files.

Granted that I only work in a *nix environment which is built on the
principle of building on the work of others and is easy to tie disparate
programs together to accomplish a job.

For example, I have a python script I run at one of our ISP customers that
gathers postfix mail queue sizes from a cluster of mail servers creating
data files and a gnuplot script to generate a plot of mail queue size over
time for each cluster server.

Have a look at pychart:

 http://home.gna.org/pychart/.

There is a How-To on using this package in Plone, it shouldn't be hard
to extract from the given examples how to use pychart in your own
project:

If you are looking for publications quality charts, you can make a Zopeish 
wrapper for pychart.  http://home.gna.org/pychart/
