Graphs and Charts for GOODCalc with SparkliPy
Posted by Tim Freund Mon, 12 Jun 2006 05:43:00 GMT
I haven't worked much on GOODCalc lately, but one of the things that I'd really like to add is a collection of graphs and charts that will help people visualize their debt repayment process. A sparkline is a type of inline graph that is perfect for this type of application, and there is even an existing library available for Python. I found it through inspection of the source code to the Ruby sparkline library. Joe's library is nice, but I want better integration with TurboGears than a CGI program will provide, so with a spare moment here and there I have started to piece together a new sparkline library called SparkliPy. I hope to get it working well, documented well, and then well integrated with GOODCalc very soon, but you can dig in now if you like playing with brand new stuff.
