Risk plot generator (rpg)

This tool takes a CSV or YAML file with your observations and can output either a grid plot, or a donut ring. It also accepts a CSV or YAML file with recommendations to output a recommendations grid.

Rationale

I was fed-up with having to manually create these graphs for a client and I wanted to make my life easier. And since I want to increase my Python skills some more, this would be a fun little project to catch two birds with one stone.

Dependencies

1. argparse (dev-python/argparse);
2. matplotlib (dev-python/matplotlib);
3. python (dev-lang/python).

Install

Using Pip:

pip install --user rpg-0bs1d1an

Using setup.py:

python setup.py install

Usage

You can use sr2t in two ways:

• When installed as package, call the installed script: rpg --help.
• When Git cloned, call the package directly from the root of the Git repository: python -m rpg --help

$ rpg -h
usage: rpg [-h] (-iC INPUT_CSV_FILE | -iY INPUT_YAML_FILE) (-g | -d | -r)
           [-oP OUTPUT_PNG_FILE] [--axis-labels AXIS_LABELS]
           [--axis-arrows AXIS_ARROWS] [--legend LEGEND]

Converting scanning reports to a tabular format

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -iC INPUT_CSV_FILE, --input-csv-file INPUT_CSV_FILE
                        specify an input CSV file (e.g. observations.csv).
  -iY INPUT_YAML_FILE, --input-yaml-file INPUT_YAML_FILE
                        specify an input YAML file (e.g. observations.yml).
  -g, --grid            generate a risk grid plot.
  -d, --donut           generate a risk donut.
  -r, --recommendations
                        generate a risk recommendations plot.
  -oP OUTPUT_PNG_FILE, --output-png-file OUTPUT_PNG_FILE
                        specify an output PNG file (e.g. risk.png).
  --axis-labels         specify to print the axis labels
  --axis-arrows         specify to print arrows along the axis

Example

A few examples

Risk grid plot

To generate a risk grid plot: $ rpg -iC example/input/observations.csv -oP example/output/grid.png -g

Or if you prefer YAML: $ rpg -iY example/input/observations.yaml -oP example/output/grid.png -g

Risk donut

To generate a risk donut: $ rpg -iC example/input/observations.csv -oP example/output/donut.png -d

Or if you prefer YAML: $ rpg -iY example/input/observations.yaml -oP example/output/donut.png -d

Risk recommendations

To generate a recommendations plot: $ rpg -iC example/input/recommendations.csv -oP example/output/recommendations.png -r

Or if you prefer YAML: $ rpg -iY example/input/recommendations.yaml -oP example/output/recommendations.png -r
