import ibis.selectors as s

ibis.options.interactive = True

t = ibis.examples.penguins.fetch()

Using Altair with Ibis

Refer to the Altair documentation. You can pass in Ibis tables or expressions:

import altair as alt

chart = (
    alt.Chart(t.group_by("species").agg(count=ibis._.count()))
    .mark_bar()
    .encode(
        x="species",
        y="count",
        tooltip=["species", "count"],
    )
    .properties(width=600, height=400)
    .interactive()
)
chart
