Plot graph with Kafka lags with linear regression line added into plot.

Source CSV file is to be retrieved from Grafana.

Usage:

kafka_lags.py input_file.csv

Example:

kafka_lags.py overall.csv”)

import sys
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
#

Standard moving average window

sma_window = 50
#

Check if command line argument is specified (it is mandatory).

if len(sys.argv) < 2:
    print("Usage:")
    print("  plot_kafka_lags_pandas.py input_file.csv")
    print("Example:")
    print("  plot_kafka_lags_pandas.py overall.csv")
    sys.exit(1)
#

First command line argument should contain name of input CSV.

input_csv = sys.argv[1]
#

Try to open the CSV file specified.

df = pd.read_csv(input_csv)
#

Add a standard moving average column

df['SMA'] = df.iloc[:, 1].rolling(window=sma_window).mean()
#

Print the data frame and its description as well

print(df.info())
print()
print(df.describe())
#

Values to be plotted

time = df["Time"]
messages = df["topic : uploads"]
sma = df["SMA"]
#

Linear regression

x = np.arange(0, len(messages))
coef = np.polyfit(x, messages, 1)
poly1d_fn = np.poly1d(coef)
#

Create new graph

plt.plot(messages, "-", poly1d_fn(np.arange(0, len(messages))), 'r-')
#

Title of a graph

plt.title("Messages in Kafka")
#

Add a label to x-axis

plt.xlabel("Time")
#

Add a label to y-axis

plt.ylabel("Messages")

plt.legend(loc="upper right")
#

Set the plot layout

plt.tight_layout()
#

And save the plot into raster format and vector format as well

plt.savefig("kafka_lags_pandas.png")
plt.savefig("kafka_lags_pandas.svg")
#

Try to show the plot on screen

plt.show()
#

Create new graph

plt.plot(sma, "-", poly1d_fn(np.arange(0, len(messages))), 'r-')
#

Title of a graph

plt.title("Messages in Kafka")
#

Add a label to x-axis

plt.xlabel("Time")
#

Add a label to y-axis

plt.ylabel("Messages")
#

Specify legend placement

plt.legend(loc="upper right")
#

Set the plot layout

plt.tight_layout()
#

And save the plot into raster format and vector format as well

plt.savefig("kafka_lags_pandas_sma.png")
plt.savefig("kafka_lags_pandas_sma.svg")
#

Try to show the plot on screen

plt.show()
