Zusammenfassung

The DataClock class creates data clocks. Data clocks visually summarize temporal data into two dimensions to reveal seasonal or cyclical patterns and trends over time.

When creating this object, optional arguments for the class constructor must be specified using the argument name; they cannot be specified by argument position. See the Code sample section for an example of how to specify arguments using keywords.

Methodenübersicht

MethodeErläuterung
addToLayer (layer_or_layerfile)

The addToLayer method adds the chart object to a layer or table view.

exportToSVG (path, width, height)

The exportToSVG method exports the chart to SVG format.

updateChart ()

The updateChart method updates chart properties to sync changes between the object and the chart previously added to a layer.

Methoden

addToLayer (layer_or_layerfile)
ParameterErläuterungDatentyp
layer_or_layerfile

The chart will be added to the target object. This argument can be a Layer or Table object.

Object

Adding the chart object to a layer or table using the addToLayer method is often the final step after defining chart properties.

Add a chart to an existing layer.

import arcpy

# Insert creation of chart object here
...

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("current")
map = aprx.listMaps()[0]
censusLayer = map.listLayers('Census Block Groups')[0]

# Add chart object to a layer
chart.addToLayer(censusLayer)
exportToSVG (path, width, height)
ParameterErläuterungDatentyp
path

The path where the chart will be exported in SVG format.

String
width

The width of the output graphic.

Integer
height

The height of the output graphic.

Integer

In some cases, you may want to save the chart as a graphic that can be shared and viewed outside of ArcGIS Pro. Exporting to the SVG graphic format is beneficial, as the chart elements and text are stored as vector elements that can be independently modified in vector graphics software. An SVG graphic can also be resized to any scale without pixelation or loss in quality.

Export a chart that has a project layer data source to an .svg file.

import arcpy

# Insert creation of chart object here
...

aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current')
censusLayer = aprx.listMaps()[0].listLayers('Census Block Groups')[0]

# Set data source of chart object to a layer in current project
chart.dataSource = censusLayer

# Save the chart to file with dimensions width=500, height=500
chart.exportToSVG('populationByState.svg', 500, 500)

Export a chart that has a feature service data source to an .svg file.

import arcpy

# Insert creation of chart object here
...

featureServiceURL = r'https://services1.arcgis.com/hLJbHVT9ZrDIzK0I/arcgis/rest/services/CrimesChiTheft/FeatureServer/0'

# Set data source of chart object to a feature service URL
chart.dataSource = featureServiceURL

# Save the chart to file with dimensions width=800, height=600
chart.exportToSVG('theftsPerBeat.svg', 800, 600)
updateChart ()

Adding the chart object to a layer using the addToLayer method is often the final step after defining chart properties.

You can also modify the properties of the original chart instead of starting with a new chart. You can then use the updateChart method to synchronize any changes into the chart that was added to the layer. This allows the changes you make to be presented in the Chart properties pane and chart view.

Use the updateChart method to synchronize chart property changes into a layer.

import arcpy

# Insert creation of chart object here
...

chart.addToLayer(myLayer)

# Further modification is necessary
chart.description = "Data from the U.S. Census Bureau"
chart.updateChart()

Codebeispiel

Create a data clock chart using a layer in the current project and export the chart to an .svg file. 


import arcpy
lyr = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("current").listMaps()[0].listLayers("car_accidents")[0]
chart = arcpy.charts.DataClock(dateField="Date", aggregation="count", 
                               timeUnitsRingWedge="WEEKS_DAYS", dataSource=lyr)
chart.exportToSVG("data_clock.svg", width=750, height=500)
