# Datalys2 Reporting Python API
**Version 0.2.8**

A Python library to build and compile interactive HTML reports using the Datalys2 Reporting framework.

**Note:** Compatible with dl2 version 0.2.8
https://github.com/kameronbrooks/datalys2-reporting

## Installation

```bash
pip install dl2-reports
```

## Quick Start

```python
import pandas as pd
from dl2_reports import DL2Report

# Create a report
report = DL2Report(title="My Report")

# Add data
df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2], "B": [3, 4]})
report.add_df("my_data", df, compress=True)

# Add a page and visual
page = report.add_page("Overview")
page.add_row().add_kpi("my_data", value_column="A", title="Metric A")

# Save to HTML or show in Jupyter
report.save("report.html")
report.show()
```

## Data Compression

**Always use compression for production reports.** The Python API provides automatic gzip compression for your datasets, which significantly reduces file size and improves browser performance.

### Why Compression Matters

- **Large datasets will cause severe performance issues or fail to load entirely without compression**
- Compressed reports load faster and consume less memory in the browser
- File sizes can be reduced by 80-90% or more
- The browser automatically decompresses data on-the-fly using the built-in `DecompressionStream` API

### Using Compression

#### Report-Level Default

When creating a `DL2Report`, you can set the default compression behavior:

```python
from dl2_reports import DL2Report

# Enable compression by default (recommended)
report = DL2Report(
    title="My Report",
    compress_visuals=True  # This is the default
)
```

#### Per-Dataset Control

Control compression for individual datasets using the `compress` parameter in `add_df()`:

```python
import pandas as pd
from dl2_reports import DL2Report

report = DL2Report(title="Sales Report")

# Compress large datasets (recommended for most data)
large_df = pd.read_csv("sales_data.csv")
report.add_df("salesData", large_df, compress=True)

# Small datasets can be uncompressed for easier debugging
small_df = pd.DataFrame({"kpi": [100]})
report.add_df("kpiData", small_df, compress=False)
```

### How It Works

When you set `compress=True`, the Python API automatically:

1. Serializes your data to JSON
2. Compresses it using gzip
3. Encodes it as a Base64 string
4. Stores it in a separate `<script>` tag in the HTML
5. Adds the `gc-compressed-data` meta tag for automatic memory cleanup

The browser then decompresses the data when the report loads.

### Best Practices

- **✅ Always compress in production** - essential for performance and reliability
- **✅ Compress any dataset with more than a few rows** - the overhead is minimal
- **❌ Only disable compression when:**
  - Debugging and you need to inspect the raw JSON in the HTML file
  - Working with extremely small datasets (single-row KPI values) during development

## Features

### Jupyter Notebook Support

You can render reports directly inside Jupyter Notebooks (including VS Code and JupyterLab).

*   **`report.show(height=800)`**: Displays the report in an iframe.
*   **Automatic Rendering**: Simply placing the `report` object at the end of a cell will render it automatically.

**Requirements:**
*   `IPython` must be installed in your environment.

## Available Visuals

All visuals are added to a layout row using `row.add_<type>(...)`.

### Common Visual Keyword Arguments

All `Layout.add_*` visual helpers accept `**kwargs` which are passed through to the viewer as visual properties.


Common properties supported by the viewer include:

- `padding`: number (px)
- `margin`: number (px)
- `border`: bool or CSS border string
- `shadow`: bool or CSS box-shadow string
- `flex`: number (flex grow)
- `modal_id`: string (global modal id opened via the expand icon)

The Python API accepts these in `snake_case`; the compiled report JSON uses `camelCase`.

### Layout Visual Helper APIs

Below are the current convenience helpers available on `Layout` (rows are layouts).

### Visual Types (Quick Summary)

These are the visual types you can add via the `Layout` helpers:

- `kpi` (via `add_kpi`)
- `table` (via `add_table`)
- `card` (via `add_card`)
- `pie` (via `add_pie`)
- `clusteredBar` / `stackedBar` (via `add_bar(stacked=...)`)
- `scatter` (via `add_scatter`)
- `line` (via `add_line`)
- `checklist` (via `add_checklist`)
- `histogram` (via `add_histogram`)
- `heatmap` (via `add_heatmap`)
- `boxplot` (via `add_boxplot`)
- `modal` (via `add_modal_button`)

You can also add any viewer-supported visual type directly using `add_visual(type=..., ...)`.

| `**kwargs` | `Any` | — | Additional common visual properties. |

> Note: Most visuals also support `modal_id` as a keyword argument to enable an "expand" icon that opens a modal on click.



### Modals

Create detailed overlays that can be triggered from any element.

```python
# Define a modal
modal = report.add_modal("details", "Detailed View")
modal.add_row().add_table("my_data")

# Trigger from a visual
page.add_row().add_kpi("my_data", "A", "Metric", modal_id="details")

# Or add a dedicated button
page.add_row().add_modal_button("details", "Open Details")
```

### Visual Elements (Annotations)

Add trend lines, markers, and custom axes to your charts.

#### Trend Lines

You can add a trend line using the `.add_trend()` method. It can automatically calculate linear or polynomial regression if you don't provide coefficients.

```python
chart = page.add_row().add_scatter("my_data", "A", "B")

# Auto-calculate linear trend (degree 1)
chart.add_trend(color="red")

# Auto-calculate polynomial trend (e.g., degree 2)
chart.add_trend(coefficients=2, color="blue", line_style="dashed")

# Manually provide coefficients [intercept, slope, ...]
chart.add_trend(coefficients=[0, 1.5], color="green")
```

#### Other Elements

Use `.add_element(type, **kwargs)` for other annotations.

| Element Type | Description | Key Arguments |
|--------------|-------------|---------------|
| `xAxis` | Vertical line at a specific X value. | `value`, `color`, `label`, `line_style` |
| `yAxis` | Horizontal line at a specific Y value. | `value`, `color`, `label`, `line_style` |
| `marker` | A point marker at a specific value. | `value`, `size`, `shape` (`circle`, `square`, `triangle`), `color` |
| `label` | A text label at a specific value. | `value`, `label`, `font_size`, `font_weight` |

```python
chart.add_element("yAxis", value=100, label="Target", color="green")
```

### Tree Traversal

All components (Pages, Rows, Layouts, Visuals) are part of a tree. You can access the root report from any component using `.get_report()`.

```python
visual = layout.add_visual("line", "my_data")
report = visual.get_report()
print(report.title)
```
