How to Format Time

📊 Plotly Python
1

Hello,

I am trying to plot a date on the x-axis and a time on the y-axis using my dataset, which includes only specific timestamps. I am encountering issues with formatting the y-axis (time). I would like to format the ticks to display in hh:mm format and have a fixed scaling from 05:00 to 22:00.

Thanks in advance.

I have this code (different dataset):

dt = pd.date_range(start='2022-01-01', end='2022-05-31', freq='h')
date = dt.date
time = dt.time
df = pd.DataFrame({'Time': time, 'Date': date})
fig = go.Figure(data=go.Scatter(y=df['Time'], x=df['Date'], mode='markers'))
fig.update_xaxes(
    dtick="M1",
    tickformat="%b\n%Y",
    ticklabelmode="period",
    range=["2022-01-01", "2022-12-31"],

    ticks="inside",
    minor=dict(
        ticks="outside",
        tickwidth=2,
        ticklen=30,
        dtick="M12",
    ),
)
fig.update_yaxes(
    dtick="M1",
    tickformat="%H",
    range=["05:00:00", "22:00:00"],
    ticks="inside",
)
