This visualization demonstrates how to access and analyze daily happiness scores from the Hedonometer API using Python. It shows time series data for English-language Twitter content, including happiness values and word frequencies from 2019 onward. The example uses the `requests` library to fetch JSON data from the Hedonometer API endpoints, then converts the response into a pandas DataFrame for sorting and inspection. It also highlights the available API parameters for filtering by language, date range, and event annotations, with the code revealing the API’s pagination metadata and structured event objects containing importance ratings and Wikipedia links.

Hedonometer happiness timeseries

This chart tracks the daily “hedonometer” happiness score from September 2008 through January 2009, based on word frequencies in social media text. A line plot shows the value hovering around 6.0, with pronounced spikes near Christmas and New Year’s Day, and a sharp dip at the end of September 2008, likely reflecting the financial crisis. The data is drawn from a CSV with date and value columns, rendered as a time series to reveal weekly rhythms and holiday effects.

World Happiness Dataset Schnair

This example displays the raw World Happiness Report 2019 data in a simple text format. The visualization initially loads a CSV file containing happiness scores and related metrics for various countries, parsing the data into a structured format. It uses the d3.csvParse API to read the data, then displays the parsed JSON representation of each country's record. The code demonstrates a basic data-loading workflow with d3.v7, showing how fetched data transitions from an undefined state to a formatted output using select and join methods.

World Happiness Report

This example displays the raw contents of the first row from the World Happiness Report 2019 dataset, rendering it as formatted JSON text. The code loads the data via an ES module import, converts six quantitative attribute columns to numbers, and then uses `JSON.stringify` to pretty-print the row inside a `<pre>` element. It relies on standard JavaScript data parsing and DOM manipulation without any external visualization libraries.

How to use The Guardian's API to download article data for content analysis (in Python 3.x)

This example demonstrates how to perform content analysis on Guardian news articles by programmatically downloading article data through The Guardian’s open API. It shows the entire workflow, from constructing API queries with parameters like `from-date`, `to-date`, and `show-fields`, to parsing the returned JSON metadata and article bodies. The Python script uses the `requests` library to fetch paginated results into day-sized chunks, saving the raw JSON files locally for further analysis. The example also highlights the API’s response structure, including fields such as `wordcount`, `byline`, and full article HTML.

Leveraging the phantom-crowbar to steal vector graphics, on the daily

This daily automation script scrapes a suite of hedonometer.org visualizations—including time series, shift plots, U.S. maps, state and city Sankey diagrams, and bar charts—using the phantom-crowbar tool to extract inline SVG from the live pages. It then converts each captured SVG file to PDF via Inkscape’s command-line interface. The data reflects daily sentiment scores from the hedonometer site, with separate outputs for books like Frankenstein and city comparisons between 2013 and 2014. The script relies on shell date utilities to name files by current date, demonstrating a repeatable pipeline for archiving web graphics.

world-happiness-data

This gallery example displays the World Happiness Report 2019 data, presenting each country’s happiness score alongside contributing factors such as GDP per capita, social support, and healthy life expectancy. The visualization loads the data from a CSV file and displays the raw parsed JSON, demonstrating the initial data-loading phase. It uses d3.v7’s `select`, `csvParse`, and `fetch` API to retrieve and parse the dataset, updating the view through a state management system.

socialmediasentiment

This dashboard compares sentiment trends between Twitter and news sources, presenting both a pie chart of sentiment distribution by source and a line chart tracking positive and negative sentiment over time. A dropdown filter allows users to view all data or isolate a specific source. The visualization uses D3 v7 to load CSV data from Google Drive, with d3.pie and d3.arc generating the pie chart, and d3.scaleTime, d3.scaleLinear, and d3.line constructing the temporal trends. Both charts render as SVG elements within styled containers.

Untitled

This interactive line chart visualizes the sentiment polarity of tweets from a U.S. presidential Twitter account from June 14 to June 17, 2020, using a dataset (`crawled_mini.csv`) that maps hourly timestamps to polarity scores. The chart plots the polarity values over time, with a line graph showing the trend; users can filter the view by a time range via a Metro UI double slider or select a specific hour from a dropdown menu. The visualization is built with D3.js (v3), using `d3.time.scale`, `d3.svg.axis`, and `d3.svg.line` to render the axes and line, while a custom `d3.legend` function adds a legend. The Y-axis spans from -1 to 1 to represent the polarity range, and the line is styled in steelblue.
