# csv2svg

Build a SVG graph from a csv document.

## Installation

You must have [Rust installed](https://rustup.rs). Do

```cli
cargo install csv2svg
```

## Usage

### Viewing the SVG graph in a browser

If you don't pipe the output of csv2svg, the graph is automatically displayed in your browser.
For increasing readability the graph reacts to mouse hovering.

```cli
app_whose_output_is_csv | csv2svg
```

```cli
csv2svg < some/file.csv
```
### Making a file from the SVG graph

```cli
app_whose_output_is_csv | csv2svg > some/file.svg
```

```cli
csv2svg < some/file.csv > some/file.svg
```

## Example

The `examples/irregular-times.csv` files contains this:

```csv
time,something,another thing,a third one,whatever,bof

2020-12-30T06:42:39Z,920,4134,209,6856,2222
2020-12-30T07:41:22Z,1200,4136,410,6937,2481
2020-12-30T21:43:01Z,1300,2322,414,,4272
```

It may be used with no configuration:

```cli
csv2svg < examples/irregular-times.csv
```

which produces this:

![irregular-times](examples/irregular-times.png)
