Donut Chart

This example shows how to make a Donut Chart using mark_arc. This is adapted from a corresponding Vega-Lite Example: Donut Chart.

Method syntax

import pandas as pd
import altair as alt

source = pd.DataFrame({
    "category": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
    "value": [4, 6, 10, 3, 7, 8]
})

alt.Chart(source).mark_arc(innerRadius=50).encode(
    theta="value",
    color="category:N",
)

Attribute syntax

import pandas as pd
import altair as alt

source = pd.DataFrame({"category": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], "value": [4, 6, 10, 3, 7, 8]})

alt.Chart(source).mark_arc(innerRadius=50).encode(
    theta=alt.Theta(field="value", type="quantitative"),
    color=alt.Color(field="category", type="nominal"),
)
