Presentation
============
pygal is a SVG charting library written in python.
.. pygal:: 300 200
chart = pygal.HorizontalBar(y_label_rotation=-25)
chart.x_labels = 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five'
chart.add('red', [1, 2, 3, 1, 2])
chart.add('green', [4, 3, 0, 1, 2])
.. pygal:: 300 200
chart = pygal.Line(x_label_rotation=25, fill=True, style=pygal.style.NeonStyle, interpolate='cubic')
chart.x_labels = 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five'
chart.add('red', [1, 2, 3, 1, 2])
chart.add('green', [4, 3, 0, 1, 2])
.. pygal:: 300 200
chart = pygal.Pie()
chart.x_labels = 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five'
chart.add('red', [1, 2, 3, 1, 2])
chart.add('green', [4, 3, 0, 1, 2])
.. pygal:: 300 200
chart = pygal.Radar(fill=True, style=pygal.style.NeonStyle)
chart.x_labels = 'one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five'
chart.add('red', [1, 2, 3, 1, 2])
chart.add('green', [4, 3, 0, 1, 2])

Optional dependencies
---------------------
PNG output requires `CairoSVG <http://cairosvg.org/>`_, `tinycss <http://packages.python.org/tinycss/>`_ and `cssselect <http://packages.python.org/cssselect/>`_.
Install those with ``pip install CairoSVG tinycss cssselect``.
