Bar Chart with Labels
=====================
This example shows a basic horizontal bar chart with labels created with Altair.


.. altair-plot::
    :remove-code:
    


    import altair as alt
    from altair.datasets import data


    source = data.wheat()

    base = alt.Chart(source).encode(
        x='wheat',
        y="year:O",
        text='wheat'
    )
    base.mark_bar() + base.mark_text(align='left', dx=2)
    # No channel encoding options are specified in this chart
    # so the code is the same as for the method-based syntax.


.. tab-set::

    .. tab-item:: Method syntax
        :sync: method

        .. code:: python


            import altair as alt
            from altair.datasets import data


            source = data.wheat()

            base = alt.Chart(source).encode(
                x='wheat',
                y="year:O",
                text='wheat'
            )
            base.mark_bar() + base.mark_text(align='left', dx=2)


    .. tab-item:: Attribute syntax
        :sync: attribute

        .. code:: python


            import altair as alt
            from altair.datasets import data


            source = data.wheat()

            base = alt.Chart(source).encode(
                x='wheat',
                y="year:O",
                text='wheat'
            )
            base.mark_bar() + base.mark_text(align='left', dx=2)
            # No channel encoding options are specified in this chart
            # so the code is the same as for the method-based syntax.
