Is there a way to export chart data to a dataframe

[Jordan-Eckowitz]

I'd like to run Empyrial on my backend and serve up the chart data to the frontend of my own personal portfolio app. Is there a way to output the chart data as a dataframe (or similar format)?

Hey,

First, sorry for the late reply!

Ok, so there are some values you could get. For example, if you do:

empyrial.returns = returns  #get dataframe of the returns of your portfolio
empyrial.creturns = creturns  #get dataframe of the cumulative returns of your portfolio
empyrial.benchmark = benchmark  #get dataframe of the returns of your benchmark

Now, that you collected these dataframes, you can exploit them to get charts. However, if you want to get the same charts as the one in the report we offer, I advise you to use Quantstats (https://github.com/ranaroussi/quantstats). We use this to get charts from our dataframes. You can get these charts by giving as input the return dataframe.

Good luck with this project!
