python - 来自 pandas 数据框的 seaborn 时间序列

Question

我正在努力解决一个看似非常简单的问题:如何让 seaborn 从 pandas 数据框绘制时间序列折线图。我在这里做错了什么？

import seaborn as sns
import pandas as pd
df=pd.DataFrame({"Date":["2015-03-03","2015-03-02","2015-03-01"],"Close":[1,3,2]})
df["Date"]=pd.to_datetime(df["Date"])#Not sure if seaborn can parse strings as dates
sns.tsplot(data=df,unit=None, time="Date", value="Close")

我得到这个回溯:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      2 df["Date"]=pd.to_datetime(df["Date"])
----> 3 sns.tsplot(data=df,unit=None, time="Date", value="Close")

很遗憾，我没有在文档中找到任何答案。

seaborn 的tsplot 不是为了绘制简单的时间序列线图，而是为了绘制不确定性，参见:https://stanford.edu/~mwaskom/software/seaborn/generated/seaborn.tsplot.html .

对于线图，你可以简单地做

df.set_index('Date').plot()
