# Usage

  <span>Example of a Folium map in light and dark modes.</span>
</p>

Simple Folium map:

```python
from bivario import explore_bivariate_data
from bivario.example_data import nyc_bike_trips

explore_bivariate_data(
    nyc_bike_trips(), "morning_starts", "morning_ends"
)
```

Simple Lonboard map:

```python
from bivario import viz_bivariate_data
from bivario.example_data import nyc_bike_trips

viz_bivariate_data(
    nyc_bike_trips(), "morning_starts", "morning_ends"
)
```

In dark mode:

```python
from bivario import explore_bivariate_data
from bivario.example_data import nyc_bike_trips

explore_bivariate_data(
    nyc_bike_trips(),
    column_a="morning_starts",
    column_b="morning_ends",
    dark_mode=True, # default is False
)
```

Use other palette:

```python
from bivario import explore_bivariate_data
from bivario.example_data import nyc_bike_trips

explore_bivariate_data(
    nyc_bike_trips(),
    column_a="morning_starts",
    column_b="morning_ends",
    cmap="bubblegum"
)
```

Set numerical mode (disable bucketing):

> [!NOTE]
> By default, map is created using `Mapclassify` library with `NaturalBreaks` method to split data into 5 categories.
> Method and number of buckets can be changed or disabled completely.

```python
from bivario import explore_bivariate_data
from bivario.example_data import nyc_bike_trips

explore_bivariate_data(
    nyc_bike_trips(),
    column_a="morning_starts",
    column_b="morning_ends",
    dark_mode=True,
    cmap="late_sunset",
    scheme=False, # or set to None
    legend_size_px=300,
)
```

# Bivariate colourmaps

Palettes in `bivario` are created by blending 2 or 4 colours in a 2D space using OKLab colour space. The operations on input and output are done in RGB, an internally are transformed into OKLab values using `colour-science` library.

`bivario` has 4 modes of Bivariate colourmaps:

**AccentsBivariateColourmap** - defined by two accent colours and a light and a dark colour.

</p>

**CornersBivariateColourmap** - defined by 4 corner colours (accent a/b, low value and high value)

**MplCmapBivariateColourmap** - defined by 2 Matplotlib colourmaps along axis X and Y

**NamedBivariateColourmap** - can load predefined palette from string name

## Available palettes

<p align="center">
  <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RaczeQ/bivario/main/images/available_palettes.png"><br/>
</p>

You can load these palettes by passing a string name to the `cmap` attribute, or load a `NamedBivariateColourmap` object:

```python
cmap = NamedBivariateColourmap("coral_ocean")

# You can call it similar to Matplotlib Colormap object
rgb_values = cmap(values_a=[0, 1], values_b=[0, 1])
```
