function bar

bar(
    table: 'wandb.Table',
    label: 'str',
    value: 'str',
    title: 'str' = '',
    split_table: 'bool' = False
) → CustomChart

Constructs a bar chart from a wandb.Table of data.

Args:

  • table: A table containing the data for the bar chart.
  • label: The name of the column to use for the labels of each bar.
  • value: The name of the column to use for the values of each bar.
  • title: The title of the bar chart.
  • split_table: Whether the table should be split into a separate section in the W&B UI. If True, the table will be displayed in a section named “Custom Chart Tables”. Default is False.

Returns:

  • CustomChart: A custom chart object that can be logged to W&B. To log the chart, pass it to wandb.log().

Example:

import random
import wandb

# Generate random data for the table
data = [
    ["car", random.uniform(0, 1)],
    ["bus", random.uniform(0, 1)],
    ["road", random.uniform(0, 1)],
    ["person", random.uniform(0, 1)],
]

# Create a table with the data
table = wandb.Table(data=data, columns=["class", "accuracy"])

# Initialize a W&B run and log the bar plot
with wandb.init(project="bar_chart") as run:
    # Create a bar plot from the table
    bar_plot = wandb.plot.bar(
         table=table,
         label="class",
         value="accuracy",
         title="Object Classification Accuracy",
    )

    # Log the bar chart to W&B
    run.log({"bar_plot": bar_plot})
