Basic Heatmap

import plotly.graph_objects as go

fig = go.Figure(data=go.Heatmap(
                    z=[[1, 20, 30],
                      [20, 1, 60],
                      [30, 60, 1]]))
fig.show()

Heatmap with Categorical Axis Labels

In this example we also show how to ignore hovertext when we have missing values in the data by setting the hoverongaps to False.

import plotly.graph_objects as go

fig = go.Figure(data=go.Heatmap(
                   z=[[1, None, 30, 50, 1], [20, 1, 60, 80, 30], [30, 60, 1, -10, 20]],
                   x=['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday'],
                   y=['Morning', 'Afternoon', 'Evening'],
                   hoverongaps = False))
fig.show()

Heatmap with Unequal Block Sizes

import plotly.graph_objects as go
import numpy as np

# Build the rectangles as a heatmap
# specify the edges of the heatmap squares
phi = (1 + np.sqrt(5) )/2. # golden ratio
xe = [0, 1, 1+(1/(phi**4)), 1+(1/(phi**3)), phi]
ye = [0, 1/(phi**3), 1/phi**3+1/phi**4, 1/(phi**2), 1]

z = [ [13,3,3,5],
      [13,2,1,5],
      [13,10,11,12],
      [13,8,8,8]
    ]

fig = go.Figure(data=go.Heatmap(
          x = np.sort(xe),
          y = np.sort(ye),
          z = z,
          type = 'heatmap',
          colorscale = 'Viridis'))

# Add spiral line plot

def spiral(th):
    a = 1.120529
    b = 0.306349
    r = a*np.exp(-b*th)
    return (r*np.cos(th), r*np.sin(th))

theta = np.linspace(-np.pi/13,4*np.pi,1000); # angle
(x,y) = spiral(theta)

fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x= -x+x[0], y= y-y[0],
     line =dict(color='white',width=3)))

axis_template = dict(range = [0,1.6], autorange = False,
             showgrid = False, zeroline = False,
             linecolor = 'black', showticklabels = False,
             ticks = '' )

fig.update_layout(margin = dict(t=200,r=200,b=200,l=200),
    xaxis = axis_template,
    yaxis = axis_template,
    showlegend = False,
    width = 700, height = 700,
    autosize = False )

fig.show()

Heatmap with Datetime Axis

import plotly.graph_objects as go
import datetime
import numpy as np
np.random.seed(1)

programmers = ['Alex','Nicole','Sara','Etienne','Chelsea','Jody','Marianne']

base = datetime.datetime.today()
dates = base - np.arange(180) * datetime.timedelta(days=1)
z = np.random.poisson(size=(len(programmers), len(dates)))

fig = go.Figure(data=go.Heatmap(
        z=z,
        x=dates,
        y=programmers,
        colorscale='Viridis'))

fig.update_layout(
    title='GitHub commits per day',
    xaxis_nticks=36)

fig.show()

Dash Example

Dash is an Open Source Python library which can help you convert plotly figures into a reactive, web-based application. Below is a simple example of a dashboard created using Dash. Its source code can be found here and can easily be deployed to a PaaS.

from IPython.display import IFrame
IFrame(src= "https://dash-simple-apps.plotly.host/dash-heatmapplot/", width="120%", height="650px", frameBorder="0")
from IPython.display import IFrame
IFrame(src= "https://dash-simple-apps.plotly.host/dash-heatmapplot/code", width="120%", height=500, frameBorder="0")
