hvPlot.barh

hvPlot.barh(x=None, y=None, stacked=False, **kwds)

A horizontal bar plot

A barh plot represents categorical data with rectangular bars with heights proportional to the values that they represent. The y-axis of the chart plots categories and the x-axis represents the value scale. The bars are of equal width which allows for instant comparison of data.

barh can be used on dataframes with regular Index or MultiIndex.

Examples

import hvplot.pandas
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "speed": [0.1, 17.5, 40, 48, 52, 69, 88],
        "lifespan": [2, 8, 70, 1.5, 25, 12, 28],
    },
    index=["snail", "pig", "elephant", "rabbit", "giraffe", "coyote", "horse"],
)
df.hvplot.barh(color=["#457278", "#615078"])

You can stack the bars by setting stacked=True

df.hvplot.barh(stacked=True, color=["#457278", "#615078"])
