Creates a custom charts using a Vega-Lite specification and a wandb.Table
.
This function creates a custom chart based on a Vega-Lite specification and a data table represented by a wandb.Table
object. The specification needs to be predefined and stored in the W&B backend. The function returns a custom chart object that can be logged to W&B using wandb.log()
.
Args:
vega_spec_name
: The name or identifier of the Vega-Lite spec that defines the visualization structure.data_table
: Awandb.Table
object containing the data to be visualized.fields
: A mapping between the fields in the Vega-Lite spec and the corresponding columns in the data table to be visualized.string_fields
: A dictionary for providing values for any string constants required by the custom visualization.split_table
: Whether the table should be split into a separate section in the W&B UI. IfTrue
, the table will be displayed in a section named “Custom Chart Tables”. Default isFalse
.
Returns:
CustomChart
: A custom chart object that can be logged to W&B. To log the chart, pass it towandb.log()
.
Raises:
wandb.Error
: Ifdata_table
is not awandb.Table
object.
Example:
# Create a custom chart using a Vega-Lite spec and the data table.
import wandb
wandb.init()
data = [[1, 1], [2, 2], [3, 3], [4, 4], [5, 5]]
table = wandb.Table(data=data, columns=["x", "y"])
fields = {"x": "x", "y": "y", "title": "MY TITLE"}
# Create a custom title with `string_fields`.
my_custom_chart = wandb.plot_table(
vega_spec_name="wandb/line/v0",
data_table=table,
fields=fields,
string_fields={"title": "Title"},
)
wandb.log({"custom_chart": my_custom_chart})
