Time-Event-Diagrams

Time-Event-Diagrams

[Karl Voit]

Hi!

I am using following template to generate boxplot diagrams from 
values within an org-mode table:

    #+NAME: boxplot-$1
    #+BEGIN_SRC R :var data=${2:orgtable} :exports code :results none
    pdf('~/tmp/2del/boxplot-$1.pdf')
    
    boxplot(data\$${3:column},
        names=c("${4:column description}"),
        xlab="${5:x-axis}",
        ylab="${6:y-axis}",
        pars = list(boxwex = 0.3, staplewex = 0.5,
        boxfill="lightblue"))
    #+END_SRC
    
    [[file:~/tmp/2del/boxplot-$1.pdf]]

Do you have an idea, how I am able to generate a one- or 
two-dimensional diagram where I can visualize date/time-events?

The date/time events should be used from a table such as:

      | When             | How many |
      |------------------+----------|
      | [2016-11-17 Thu] |        3 |
      | [2016-11-23 Wed] |        4 |
      | [2016-12-10 Sat] |        1 |

Something like:

      Events |
             |             x
             |  x          x
             |  x          x
             |  x          x                 x
             +-------------------------------------> t
              17 Nov     23 Nov            10 Dec

... and/or 2-dimensional with only one event per date: missing second 
column of the table above.

Important: the x-position of each event (or bar) has to be relative
to its date/time: between 17 Nov and 23 Nov there is less space than 
between 23 Nov and 10 Dec.

I am open for R, Python or any JavaScript-foo I am able to use 
in a web browser.

What about GnuPlot?

#+plot: ind:1 deps:(2) type:2d with:"impulse lw 6" set:"yrange [0:]"
| When             | How many |
|------------------+----------|
| [2016-11-17 Thu] |        3 |
| [2016-11-23 Wed] |        4 |
| [2016-12-10 Sat] |        1 |


Type
   org-plot/gnuplot
or
   C-c " g
in the table

Heard about it. Never used.

Cryptic syntax IMO.

I guess I need weeks of learning basics in order to understand GnuPlot so that
I am able to derive those plot-lines all by myself?

Then I get «Starting gnuplot plotting program...Done» in my
mini-buffer.

That's it.

I recognized that a *gnuplot* buffer was created in background. Its
content is ...

,----
| Terminal type set to 'unknown'
| gnuplot> reset
| gnuplot> set yrange [0:]
| gnuplot> set datafile separator "\t"
| gnuplot> set xdata time
| gnuplot> set timefmt "%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M:%S"
| gnuplot> plot '/tmp/org-plot11956t0A' using 1:2 with impulse lw 6 title 'How many'
| gnuplot>
`----

... which I do not understand yet.

Since you just mentioned invoking org-plot/gnuplot, I guess there
should be any result somewhere somehow which did not work at my
side.

I could not locate any file or directory /tmp/org-plot11956t0A.

What *should* happen?

By default, the table plotting shows the plot in a window.  If you want
to save the plot to a file, add something along the lines of

  file:"myplot.png"

to the #+PLOT line.

The result is an SVG file that a web browser can display.

It works for me if I remove the =:session none=. It seems that there are 
some issues with the session flag:
