iris = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mwaskom/seaborn-data/master/iris.csv')

I would like to write this to an excel file where I add a background color based on the value of the species columns. I want to cycle between two colors, such that setosa is red, versicolor is blue, virginica is red, and so on. In general I do not know how many groups I have, so it must be general enough to account for this
How would I go about achieving this? The df.style.apply works in individual rows. I thought I could do a groupby and then apply the color to all rows within the group, but I was not able to "combine" the formatted groups into one dataframe.
CodePudding user response：
You can do something like:
def color_species(val):
color = "red" if val == "setosa" else "blue" if val == "versicolor" else "green"
return "background-color: %s" % color
iris.style.applymap(color_species, subset=["species"])
CodePudding user response：
If need coloring all rows/ columns use Styler.apply with custom function with repeat mapped values by numpy.broadcast_to, for colors is used seaborne.color_palette:
import seaborn as sns
def color(x):
vals = x['species'].drop_duplicates()
palette = sns.color_palette(None, len(vals)).as_hex()
d = {x: f'background-color:{y}' for x, y in zip(vals, palette)}
a = np.broadcast_to(x['species'].map(d).fillna('').to_numpy()[:, None], x.shape)
return pd.DataFrame(a, index=x.index, columns=x.columns)
iris.style.apply(color, axis=None)
If need coloring only column species use Styler.applymap with lambda function and dict.get:
vals = iris['species'].drop_duplicates()
palette = sns.color_palette(None, len(vals)).as_hex()
d = {x: f'background-color:{y}' for x, y in zip(vals, palette)}
iris.style.applymap(lambda x: d.get(x,''), subset=['species'])
