Generates alt text for UpSet plots

Project description

:sparkles: upset-alt-txt-gen Tests

Design experiments for generating semantically meaningful alt-text. This work is adapted from:

Alan Lundgard AND Arvind Satyanarayan (2022). Accessible Visualization via 
Natural Language Descriptions: A Four-Level Model of Semantic Content. IEEE 
Transactions on Visualization & Computer Graphics (Proc. IEEE VIS).

Local Deployment

  1. Clone the repository using git clone or download and extract the zip file.
  2. Ensure you have python version >= 3.8.10 installed.
  3. Open a terminal in the repository directory and create and activate a python virtual environment running at least Python 3.8.10. For information on how to do this, navigate here.
  4. Install the required dependencies using pip install -r requirements.txt.
  5. (Optional) Install the required development dependencies using pip install -r requirements_dev.txt. These are only required if you plan on running the tests or linting.
  6. Install the alttxt module in development mode with pip install -e .

To run the program with the example data, run python [path/to/alttxt directory] --data ../../data/movie_data_card_sort.json Level and granularity can be changed to any of the options listed in Command Line Options. Here is an example command: For unix/macOS: python3 src/alttxt --data data/movie_data_dev_sort.json For Windows: python src/alttxt --data data/movie_data_dev_sort.json

Local Testing

Local testing can be done using the tox command. Tests have not been updated to match the latest updates to the repository, and updating them is currently on hold, as deployment is a priority over robustness.

  • Linting: To run the linting tests, run tox -e lint
  • Type: To run the type tests, run tox -e type
  • Tests: To run the python tests, run tox -e test
  • Formatting: To automatically format the files to match the flake8-black standards, run tox -e format

To run the entire suite of tests at once, use tox.

Command Line Options

Command Description
-h, --help Show information on each command and exit.
-V, --version Show the program version number and exit.
-D, --data (Required) Relative path to data file.
-l, --level Semantic level. Defaults to a combination of all levels. Options are: 1, 2.
-st, --structured Returns information in JSON format that contains structured text (long description), alt-txt (short description), and technical description of the plot making strategy
-t, --title A title for the plot; used in some generations. Defaults to has no title.
