Linux, Python and Graphics
Hi Experts,
I am designing a web page in Python that shows a graphical representation of the load on the various computing nodes of the Linux server. I am currently using ReportLab to generate the charts and graphs, but I seem to have some problems with that. I've reviewed ChartDirector. It seems to be good, but it is not open-sourced and also the free version requires a logo to be displayed along with the graphics. RRDTool looks interesting, but is ONLY good for x-y charts and also involves a lot of work.
Can anyone suggest a good graphical tool (open sourced too) used with Python that will generate graphs, charts and other images to be used on web-pages.
Thank you!
