Hello all,
I’m trying to plot a graph with time in Xaxis and Power( from my smart meter) in Yaxis.
time is in TEXT format ( Sat Jul 9 21:34:04 2016) and Power is in Float format (20.56)
i read these from the database and save it to an array
trace = py.Scatter(x=time,y=power)
and they use plotly offline to plot the graph
plotly.offline.plot(trace)
I get an error saying
" Invalid ‘figure_or_data’ argument. Plotly will not be able to properly parse the resulting JSON. If you want to send this ‘figure_or_data’ to Plotly anyways (not recommended), you can set ‘validate=False’ as a plot option.
Here is why you’re seeing this error:
Path to Error: ['y']
Valid attributes for 'figure' at path[] under parents[]:
['layout', 'data']
What is the error in the program?
I could plot by manually giving X and Y values.
Is it because of wrong time format?
