Python pandas plot time-series with gap

Question

I am trying to plot a pandas DataFrame with TimeStamp indizes that has a time gap in its indizes. Using pandas.plot() results in linear interpolation between the last TimeSt

Answer 1

In my case I had DateTimeIndex objects instead of TimeStamp, but the following works for me in pandas 0.24.2 to eliminate the time series gaps after converting the DatetimeIndex objects to string.

df = pd.read_sql_query(sql, sql_engine)
df.set_index('date'), inplace=True)
df.index = df.index.map(str)
