Description
Zeppelin is a collaborative data analytics and visualization tool for distributed, general-purpose data processing systems such as Apache Spark and Apache Flink.
It has two main features:
- the data analytic phase
- the data visualization phase.
This project is an improvement or a re-design of the Data Visualization Component.
Zeppelin front-end web application already have rich visualization library based on D3, but is not made to allow other libraries and charts.
The goal of this Google Summer of Code project is to make the visualization module pluggable in order to benefit from the wide range of existing visualization libraries.

Milestone-1
Description
This Milestone is to study different charting libraries and understand how we can make a pluggable system.
Since this milestone works as some POC, the source code will be found in the student public repository
Ressources
Feature List
- Reading CSV files from d3
- Support three chart types
- Google Chart
- High Chart
- NVD3 Chart
- Drawing same chat (bar) from 3 charting libraries.
- car.csv file contains data set
- Switching chart types (bar and line)
Task List
- Update Milestone-1 in Zeppelin Wiki
- Milestone - PoC Web Application(does not depend on Zeppelin codebase as Spring restructuring)
- All charts read one CSV file
- Three different charting library (NVD3, Google Chart, High charts)
- Switching between Line and Barchart
- Must create a Pull Request to have conversation going
Results
Use case:
- User can pick charting library that he preferred
- User have to enter CSV file name. (no need to enter file extension)
- Then user have to load data for particular charting library or all the charting libraries
- Final he can pick chart type he need.
- User can switch the chart type (bar or line) and also the chatting library.
Milestone-2
Description
This Milestone an update of previous Milestone. Instead of making the scope bigger, it was decided that it would be more beneficial to work on code quality.
Since this milestone works as some POC, the source code will be found in the student public repository
Ressources

Task List
Change on UI:
- Have one loading button for each data set
- Make the Navbar .active state using angular
- Make the action steps and status easier to understand (order the steps, add explanations maybe, add css to selected options...)
