Insert pandas chart into an Excel file using XlsxWriter

问题

I use python 3.4, pandas 0.14.1 and XlsxWriter 0.5.6. I create a graph called 'graph' using pandas with the following code

 graph=data_iter['_DiffPrice'].hist() 

, which produces a beautiful histogram.

Now, how do I insert that graph into an Excel file using XlsxWriter?

I tried the XlsxWriter method

workbook.add_chart()

but this creates a graph in Excel, not what I want.

Thanks

If you would like to export Pandas data as charts in Excel using XlsxWriter then have a look at the following how-to (that I wrote): Using Pandas and XlsxWriter to create Excel charts.

If on the other hand you want the matplotlib style charts generated by Pandas then export them as images and insert them into a worksheet using the XlsxWriter insert_image() method.
