- Added async methods to polygon. - The `requests` library is no longer required, with `urllib` being used instead. - Added the `get_bar_data` function, which returns a dataframe of aggregate data from polygon. - Opened up the `subscribe` and `unsubscribe` functions Enhancements: - Tables will now scroll when the rows exceed table height. Bugs: - Fixed a bug preventing async functions being used with horizontal line event. - Fixed a bug causing the legend to show duplicate lines if the line was created after the legend. - Fixed a bug causing the line hide icon to persist within the legend after deletion (#75) - Fixed a bug causing the search box to be unfocused when the chart is loaded.

# Topbar & Events
|
|
|
|
This section gives an overview of how events are handled across the library.
|
|
|
|
## How to use events
|
|
|
|
|
|
Take a look at this minimal example, which uses the [`search`](#AbstractChart.Events) event:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
|
|
def on_search(chart, string):
|
|
print(f'Search Text: "{string}" | Chart/SubChart ID: "{chart.id}"')
|
|
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
|
|
# Subscribe the function above to search event
|
|
chart.events.search += on_search
|
|
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Upon searching in a pane, the expected output would be akin to:
|
|
```
|
|
Search Text: "AAPL" | Chart/SubChart ID: "window.blyjagcr"
|
|
```
|
|
The ID shown above will change depending upon which pane was used to search, allowing for access to the object in question.
|
|
|
|
```{important}
|
|
* When using `show` rather than `show_async`, block should be set to `True` (`chart.show(block=True)`).
|
|
* Event callables can be either coroutines, methods, or functions.
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Topbar events
|
|
|
|
|
|
Events can also be emitted from the topbar:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
def on_button_press(chart):
|
|
new_button_value = 'On' if chart.topbar['my_button'].value == 'Off' else 'Off'
|
|
chart.topbar['my_button'].set(new_button_value)
|
|
print(f'Turned something {new_button_value.lower()}.')
|
|
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
chart.topbar.button('my_button', 'Off', func=on_button_press)
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
In this example, we are passing `on_button_press` to the `func` parameter.
|
|
|
|
When the button is pressed, the function will be emitted the `chart` object as with the previous example, allowing access to the topbar dictionary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `switcher` is typically used for timeframe selection:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
def on_timeframe_selection(chart):
|
|
print(f'Getting data with a {chart.topbar["my_switcher"].value} timeframe.')
|
|
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
chart.topbar.switcher(
|
|
name='my_switcher',
|
|
options=('1min', '5min', '30min'),
|
|
default='5min',
|
|
func=on_timeframe_selection)
|
|
chart.show(block=True)
|
|
```
|

|
|
## Async clock
|
|
|
|
There are many use cases where we will need to run our own code whilst the GUI loop continues to listen for events. Let's demonstrate this by using the `textbox` widget to display a clock:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import asyncio
|
|
from datetime import datetime
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
|
|
async def update_clock(chart):
|
|
while chart.is_alive:
|
|
await asyncio.sleep(1-(datetime.now().microsecond/1_000_000))
|
|
chart.topbar['clock'].set(datetime.now().strftime('%H:%M:%S'))
|
|
|
|
|
|
async def main():
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
chart.topbar.textbox('clock')
|
|
await asyncio.gather(chart.show_async(block=True), update_clock(chart))
|
|
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
asyncio.run(main())
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is how the library is intended to be used with live data (option #2 [described here]()).
|
|
___
|
|
|
|
## Live data, topbar & events
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now we can create an asyncio program which updates chart data whilst allowing the GUI loop to continue processing events, based the [Live data](live_chart.md) example:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import asyncio
|
|
import pandas as pd
|
|
from lightweight_charts import Chart
|
|
|
|
|
|
async def data_loop(chart):
|
|
ticks = pd.read_csv('ticks.csv')
|
|
|
|
for i, tick in ticks.iterrows():
|
|
if not chart.is_alive:
|
|
return
|
|
chart.update_from_tick(ticks.iloc[i])
|
|
await asyncio.sleep(0.03)
|
|
i += 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
def on_new_bar(chart):
|
|
print('New bar event!')
|
|
|
|
|
|
def on_timeframe_selection(chart):
|
|
print(f'Selected timeframe of {chart.topbar["timeframe"].value}')
|
|
|
|
|
|
async def main():
|
|
chart = Chart()
|
|
chart.events.new_bar += on_new_bar
|
|
|
|
chart.topbar.switcher('timeframe', ('1min', '5min'), func=on_timeframe_selection)
|
|
|
|
df = pd.read_csv('ohlc.csv')
|
|
|
|
chart.set(df)
|
|
await asyncio.gather(chart.show_async(block=True), data_loop(chart))
|
|
|
|
|
|
if __name__ == '__main__':
|
|
asyncio.run(main())
|
|
|
|
```
|
