Spent some time working with the Plotly Python API.  Able to read my data logger files and upload to a plot with ease. Will need to comment code better I know…just started playing with it and wanted to share. Upload all environmental data and if the additional “Annotation” field exist add that to the plot as well.

More Info at: Plotly Python API

import plotly.plotly as py
from plotly.graph_objs import *

myname = 'plotlyid'

py.sign_in(myname,mykey)

y3 =[]
MyAnnotation = []

f = open("LOGGER26.CSV",'r')
#f = open("smallset.csv",'r')

for lines in f:
	data = lines.split(',')
	x1.append(data[0])
	y1.append(data[1])

		Annotation = {'x':data[0],'y':data[1],'text':data[4] + data[0],'xref':'x','yref':'y','showarrow':True,'arrowhead':7,'bgcolor':'red'}
		MyAnnotation.append(Annotation)

Next steps: Create a way to add the annotation to the data file on the Arduino.
