Dashborad doesn't show charts

Hello,
I’m working on the dashboard for my assignment. After endless googling and researching, after four days, I still can’t find the solution to why this code can’t show the charts.
I put the link to the GitHub so you can take a look.

Thanks!

Hi @realvuk welcome to the community.

Swap the function parameters in this line:

Doing so, some graphs are shown, I did not check if the rest works as expected :upside_down_face:

Does’t work as should but thanks!

At least you can continue debugging. Just let us know if you need further assistance.

It looks quite same with this post https://community.plotly.com/t/help-with-displaying-graphs-with-dash-plotly/78306/4
I think have some problem in your code as below:

  • First: I think selected_statistics =='Yearly Statistics' disabled option should be False
@app.callback(
    Output(component_id='select-year', component_property='disabled'),
    Input(component_id='dropdown-statistics',component_property='value'))

def update_input_container(selected_statistics):
    if selected_statistics =='Yearly Statistics': 
        return False
    else: 
        return True
  • Second: You should change from selected_statistics=='Yearly' to selected_statistics=='Yearly Statistics'
# TASK 2.6: Create and display graphs for Yearly Report Statistics
 # Yearly Statistic Report Plots                             
    elif (input_year and selected_statistics=='Yearly Statistics') :
        yearly_data = data[data['Year'] == input_year]
