HeaderConfig schema wrapper.

Parameters:

formatstr, dict, Dict

When used with the default "number" and "time" format type, the text formatting pattern for labels of guides (axes, legends, headers) and text marks.

• If the format type is "number" (e.g., for quantitative fields), this is D3’s number format pattern.

• If the format type is "time" (e.g., for temporal fields), this is D3’s time format pattern.

See the format documentation for more examples.

When used with a custom formatType, this value will be passed as format alongside datum.value to the registered function.

Default value: Derived from numberFormat config for number format and from timeFormat config for time format.

formatTypestr

The format type for labels. One of "number", "time", or a registered custom format type.

Default value:

• "time" for temporal fields and ordinal and nominal fields with timeUnit.

• "number" for quantitative fields as well as ordinal and nominal fields without timeUnit.

labelAligndict, Align, ExprRef, Literal[‘left’, ‘center’, ‘right’]

Horizontal text alignment of header labels. One of "left", "center", or "right".

labelAnchorTitleAnchor, Literal[None, ‘start’, ‘middle’, ‘end’]

The anchor position for placing the labels. One of "start", "middle", or "end". For example, with a label orientation of top these anchor positions map to a left-, center-, or right-aligned label.

labelAnglefloat

The rotation angle of the header labels.

Default value: 0 for column header, -90 for row header.

labelBaselinedict, ExprRef, Baseline, TextBaseline, Literal[‘alphabetic’, ‘line-bottom’, ‘line-top’, ‘top’, ‘middle’, ‘bottom’]

The vertical text baseline for the header labels. One of "alphabetic" (default), "top", "middle", "bottom", "line-top", or "line-bottom". The "line-top" and "line-bottom" values operate similarly to "top" and "bottom", but are calculated relative to the titleLineHeight rather than titleFontSize alone.

labelColorstr, dict, Color, ExprRef, HexColor, ColorName, Literal[‘black’, ‘silver’, ‘gray’, ‘white’, ‘maroon’, ‘red’, ‘purple’, ‘fuchsia’, ‘green’, ‘lime’, ‘olive’, ‘yellow’, ‘navy’, ‘blue’, ‘teal’, ‘aqua’, ‘orange’, ‘aliceblue’, ‘antiquewhite’, ‘aquamarine’, ‘azure’, ‘beige’, ‘bisque’, ‘blanchedalmond’, ‘blueviolet’, ‘brown’, ‘burlywood’, ‘cadetblue’, ‘chartreuse’, ‘chocolate’, ‘coral’, ‘cornflowerblue’, ‘cornsilk’, ‘crimson’, ‘cyan’, ‘darkblue’, ‘darkcyan’, ‘darkgoldenrod’, ‘darkgray’, ‘darkgreen’, ‘darkgrey’, ‘darkkhaki’, ‘darkmagenta’, ‘darkolivegreen’, ‘darkorange’, ‘darkorchid’, ‘darkred’, ‘darksalmon’, ‘darkseagreen’, ‘darkslateblue’, ‘darkslategray’, ‘darkslategrey’, ‘darkturquoise’, ‘darkviolet’, ‘deeppink’, ‘deepskyblue’, ‘dimgray’, ‘dimgrey’, ‘dodgerblue’, ‘firebrick’, ‘floralwhite’, ‘forestgreen’, ‘gainsboro’, ‘ghostwhite’, ‘gold’, ‘goldenrod’, ‘greenyellow’, ‘grey’, ‘honeydew’, ‘hotpink’, ‘indianred’, ‘indigo’, ‘ivory’, ‘khaki’, ‘lavender’, ‘lavenderblush’, ‘lawngreen’, ‘lemonchiffon’, ‘lightblue’, ‘lightcoral’, ‘lightcyan’, ‘lightgoldenrodyellow’, ‘lightgray’, ‘lightgreen’, ‘lightgrey’, ‘lightpink’, ‘lightsalmon’, ‘lightseagreen’, ‘lightskyblue’, ‘lightslategray’, ‘lightslategrey’, ‘lightsteelblue’, ‘lightyellow’, ‘limegreen’, ‘linen’, ‘magenta’, ‘mediumaquamarine’, ‘mediumblue’, ‘mediumorchid’, ‘mediumpurple’, ‘mediumseagreen’, ‘mediumslateblue’, ‘mediumspringgreen’, ‘mediumturquoise’, ‘mediumvioletred’, ‘midnightblue’, ‘mintcream’, ‘mistyrose’, ‘moccasin’, ‘navajowhite’, ‘oldlace’, ‘olivedrab’, ‘orangered’, ‘orchid’, ‘palegoldenrod’, ‘palegreen’, ‘paleturquoise’, ‘palevioletred’, ‘papayawhip’, ‘peachpuff’, ‘peru’, ‘pink’, ‘plum’, ‘powderblue’, ‘rosybrown’, ‘royalblue’, ‘saddlebrown’, ‘salmon’, ‘sandybrown’, ‘seagreen’, ‘seashell’, ‘sienna’, ‘skyblue’, ‘slateblue’, ‘slategray’, ‘slategrey’, ‘snow’, ‘springgreen’, ‘steelblue’, ‘tan’, ‘thistle’, ‘tomato’, ‘turquoise’, ‘violet’, ‘wheat’, ‘whitesmoke’, ‘yellowgreen’, ‘rebeccapurple’]

The color of the header label, can be in hex color code or regular color name.

labelExprstr

Vega expression for customizing labels.

Note: The label text and value can be assessed via the label and value properties of the header’s backing datum object.

The font weight of the header label.

labelLimitdict, float, ExprRef

The maximum length of the header label in pixels. The text value will be automatically truncated if the rendered size exceeds the limit.

Default value: 0, indicating no limit

Line height in pixels for multi-line header labels or title text with "line-top" or "line-bottom" baseline.

labelOrientOrient, Literal[‘left’, ‘right’, ‘top’, ‘bottom’]

The orientation of the header label. One of "top", "bottom", "left" or "right".

labelPaddingdict, float, ExprRef

The padding, in pixel, between facet header’s label and the plot.

Default value: 10

labelsbool

A boolean flag indicating if labels should be included as part of the header.

Default value: true.

orientOrient, Literal[‘left’, ‘right’, ‘top’, ‘bottom’]

Shortcut for setting both labelOrient and titleOrient.

titleNone

Set to null to disable title for the axis, legend, or header.

titleAligndict, Align, ExprRef, Literal[‘left’, ‘center’, ‘right’]

Horizontal text alignment (to the anchor) of header titles.

titleAnchorTitleAnchor, Literal[None, ‘start’, ‘middle’, ‘end’]
