Hi,
org-plot enables generation of graphs from data stored in org tables
(maybe eventually elsewhere in org files).
It is available on github at
http://github.com/eschulte/org-plot/tree/master or with
git clone git://github.com/eschulte/org-plot.git
Included with org-plot.el is an example.org file which should quickly
show off it's features, options and abilities.
While this is not completed, it is functional, and I figure better to
get early feedback then wait until it's all polished. Please give it
a look and let me know what you think.
Thanks -- Eric

Awesome! This has wonderful possibilities for my work. I just wish I
had this a couple of months ago. But I hope I am going to have an
opportunity to use this again soon.
Works great on GNU Emacs 22.1.1 with Org 6.06b and gnuplot 4.2
patchlevel 3. Got a "current buffer has no process" when tried from
Windows Native GNU Emacs 22.2.1 but I am sure that's something I need
to correct at my end.
A couple of questions (or feature requests):
1. How can I save the image? I think the question how to use a
different device like "png" and have charts saved on disk.
2. How to use custom labels?
3. How can I pick and choose which columns to plot like in gnuplot's
plot command?
4. How can I cycle through all tables and plot them all?
Thanks for writing and sharing this.
Regards,

Hi Eric,
It's beautiful!
...but in emacs 23 only the first table works.
C-M-g on the other tables gives me the following message:
'Not in table data field'
emacs 23, CVS last week, Debian testing.
But, hey, this is wonderful!

Hi again,
still emacs 23:
On the table with data:
The first try works. Then I have to pres C-M-g twice to get
the plot window.
On the empty tables:
with (setq debug-on-error t) this is in *Messages*:
(:plot-type grid :with lines :ind 0 :title "org mode" :map nil) [3 times]
Mark set [14 times]
Mapping tables: 100%
Mark set [2 times]
Mapping tables: done
signal: Wrong number of arguments: (lambda (el) (message (format "%S"
el)) el), 2
The buffer is modified after C-M-g and emacs asks if I want to save it.

I've noticed this as well, but for me it only happens when doing 3d or
grid plots. I think the gnuplot process may be changing state, I may
just start restarting this process before every graph.

That is certainly something to figure out.
I've added all these issues to my TODO for the project, and will
hopefully start resolving them soon, I'll update here.
Thanks for the testing/debugging -- Eric

Great to hear, hopefully this will be more robust by then :)

I'll take a look and see if there are any unix-only commands being
used, I have no access to windows machines so I may not be able to
reproduce.

you can save the image by adding a
file:"path-to-image.jpg"
option to the #+PLOT: line above the graph, which should set gnuplot's
`output' and `term' options appropriately, if you want to do fancy
things you can set these values manually by adding something like the
following to the #+PLOT: line
set:"terminal png transparent nocrop enhanced font arial 8"
set:"output 'my-output-file.png'"
> 2. How to use custom labels?
there is an option intended for this purpose labels:(col1 col2) which
should have this effect, however I will probably need to change the
way the regexp parses options first, I'll put this on my TODO list and
let you know when it's working.
> 3. How can I pick and choose which columns to plot like in gnuplot's
> plot command?
you select the column to serve as the dependent variable (x-axis)
using the dep: command with the number of the column as the sole
argument (dep:1 to use the first column). To specify which cols
should be plotted use the inds: options passing a list of column
numbers, like inds:(2 3)
> 4. How can I cycle through all tables and plot them all?
I have no idea what the best method would be for cycling through
tables, I agree this would be a useful feature (picturing all graphs
being re-generated upon export to latex/html), however I don't know of
any commands for cycling through tables. I've been thinking of
defining a [[plot:]] type link which may make this easier. Also, I
may be able to copy an answer from the exporting code. If anyone has
any ideas I'd love to hear them.

I have switched over to using `org-table-to-lisp' for all table
manipulation, and (at least in my environment), it seems to have made
the graphing functions faster, and much more reliable (no longer do I
have to run a function twice to generate a graph).
I believe this should fix most of the bugs mentioned previously.
Also, I have finished support for 3d graphing. The updated version is
up on my git repo at
http://github.com/eschulte/org-plot/tree/master
or
git clone git://github.com/eschulte/org-plot.git
Of course if anyone has any comments, problems, or suggestions please
let me know.
Thanks -- Eric

Hi Eric,
Great! This version fixes ALL the bugs I mentioned in my previous
email on emacs 23 !!!
I.e.
- It always renders the plot after the first C-M-g
- All three tables work
And it's much faster indeed!
Thank's, it's fantastic :-)

Good stuff.
Possibilities:
1. For a selected column, it can be nice to draw a histogram. Long
ago, I developed the following formula for choosing a bin size. Seems
to work.
5*(max-min)/n
You can use something like bin*round*($1 * (1.0/bin)) to bin. Note
that cl-extra.el's (round*) might be more consistent and
mathematically vetted than (round) (though you might not be allowed to
use cl-extra.el).
I haven't looked at gnuplot in a decade, so maybe it already has this.
2. It might be nice to show descriptive statistics (I would show
mean, median, geometric mean, standard deviation, min, max, range)
somewhere while showing the plot, if you don't already do this.

There is a 'with histograms' option in gnuplot. I made a small change
to org-plot.el so that this option now works as expected, for an
example of plotting a histogram (of one or more columns) using
org-plot see the example.org file in my git repo.

That does seem like it would be useful (maybe accessible through
another optional argument), I've added it to the project's TODO file.

Org-plot is great! Thank you very much for writing this. I just found
a couple of small problems, as detailed below.

** Bugs in org-plot
*** [2008-08-28 Thu] Finding the table to plot
=org-plot/goto-nearest-table= searches backward first, which means
that if point is located in an options line for a following table,
then it will find the previous table instead. This is usually
undesired.
*** [2008-08-28 Thu] Columns with multi-word text
Consider the following table:
#+PLOT: title:"Citas" ind:0 deps:(3) type:2d with:histograms set:"yrange [0:]"
| Sede | Max cites | H-index |
|-----------+-----------+---------|
| Chile | 257.72 | 21.39 |
| Leeds | 165.77 | 19.68 |
| São Paolo | 71.00 | 11.50 |
| Stockholm | 134.19 | 14.33 |
| Morelia | 257.56 | 17.67 |
In theory, this should plot the third column. However, the data
point for São Paolo comes from the second column
instead. Presumably this is because of the embedded space in "Sõo
Paolo". If I replace it with a unicode non-breaking space,
"São Paolo", then it works correctly.

you're right, I am now quoting non-text columns on export which takes
care of the problem you mentioned here. Also, org-plot is now using to
gnuplot `xticlabel' command to use the ind columns values as labels in
the case that they are text. (for an example plot your table from above
with the ind:1 option). If you don't mind, I would like to add the
table you sent above to the example.org file in org-plot to demonstrate
this feature.

you're right, I am now quoting non-text columns on export which takes
care of the problem you mentioned here. Also, org-plot is now using to
gnuplot `xticlabel' command to use the `ind' column's values as labels
in the case that they are text. (to demonstrate, plot your table from
above with the ind:1 option). If you don't mind, I would like to add
the table you sent above to the example.org file in org-plot to
demonstrate this feature.

Hi Eric, you have done an awesome job. I am very excited to try this
out.

To call a function at each table, you can use org-table-map-tables,
defined in org.el.

Hi Eric,
I just want to ask if it is necessary to redefine 'debug' function in
org-plot.el? Because when I put the following lines into .emacs file:
(require 'org-plot)
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(local-set-key (kbd "\M-\C-g")
'org-plot/gnuplot)))
whenever I invoke an error, instead of getting *Backtrace* buffer I
get a strange message in the echo line.

regards,
Seweryn Kokot

In trying the example, I'm getting a message saying a function definition
(org-table-to-lisp) is void.
I've been using org-mode for a few months, but I'm not at all familiar with
lisp.
I just today pulled the files (org-plot.el and example.org) from
http://github.com/eschulte/org-plot/tree/master.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Jerry

I can confirm that the new version fixes both the problems that I
reported. Furthermore, the new option to use a column of text labels
for the x-axis is wonderful. Thanks!

Yes, by all means, go ahead.
I've run into a couple more minor problems that might be worth looking
into if you have the time.
**** Writing plot to file
Two issues here:
1. The suffix of the output file must exactly match the name of a
gnuplot terminal type. Thus file:"foo.jpeg" works, but
file:"foo.jpg" doesn't. Similarly, one needs to use
".postscript" instead of ".ps".
2. Some terminals seem to work, but some don't (there is no error
message and the ouput file is created, but it is empty):
- Works :: jpeg, png, svg, postscript, mp
- Fails :: pdf (OK, this seems to be the only one - weird)
**** Non-ascii characters in strings
These tend not to work. However, the results vary according to
the output terminal in use, so I suspect that this may be due to
bugs in gnuplot. My version is
: G N U P L O T:
: Version 4.2 patchlevel 3
: last modified Mar 2008
: System: Darwin 9.4.0
One strange thing is that, even if the .org file is utf8, the
graphics file seems to get written as latin-1.
Cheers
Will

org-plot.el needs to do (require 'org-table)
