Self-contained, plain Go implementation of calendar heatmap inspired by Github contribution activity.

$ go build
$ echo '{
    "2020-05-16": 8,
    "2020-05-17": 13,
    "2020-05-18": 5,
    "2020-05-19": 8,
    "2020-05-20": 5
}' | ./calendarheatmap > chart.png

Basic

Colorscales

Without month separator

Without labels

Without labels, without separator

Example module, next save output in formats supported by image module (PNG, JPEG, GIF).

countByDayOfYear := map[int]int{
    1: 10,
    22: 15,
    150: 22,
    366: 55,
    ...
}

img := charts.NewHeatmap(charts.HeatmapConfig{
    Year:               2020,
    CountByDay:         countByDay,
    ColorScale:         colorscales.PuBu9,
    DrawMonthSeparator: true,
    DrawLabels:         true,
    ...
})

Example script

$ cat testdata/basic.json | ./calendarheatmap -output jpeg > chart.jpeg
$ cat testdata/custom.txt | ./calendarheatmap -input row-day-seconds-count > custom.png
$ ./calendarheatmap -h

Usage of ./calendarheatmap:
  -colorscale string
        refer to colorscales for examples (default "PuBu9")
  -input string
        format of input file, refer to parsers module (default "json-basic")
  -labels
        labels for weekday and months (default true)
  -monthsep
        render month separator (default true)
