Word cloud (tag cloud or wordle) is a novelty visual representation of text data. The importance of each word is shown with its font size, position, or color. WordCloud.jl is the perfect tool for generating word clouds, offering several advantages:
- Flexible - You have control over every aspect of generating a word cloud. You can customize the shape, color, angle, position, distribution, density, and spacing to align with your preferences and artistic style.
- Faithful - This visualization solution guarantees precise results. Each word appears only once, and its font size is determined solely by the provided weight. Words are never repeated or shrunk artificially to fill empty spaces.
- Efficient - It utilizes intelligent strategies and efficient nesting algorithms, implemented entirely in Julia (see Stuffing.jl). As a result, it can easily generate high-resolution word clouds.
import Pkg; Pkg.add("WordCloud")using WordCloud

wc = wordcloud(words, weights)
generate!(wc)
paint(wc, "random.svg")Alternatively, it could be

stopwords = WordCloud.stopwords_en ∪ ["said"]
textfile = pkgdir(WordCloud)*"/res/alice.txt"
maskfile = pkgdir(WordCloud)*"/res/alice_mask.png"
wc = wordcloud(
processtext(open(textfile), stopwords=stopwords, maxnum=500),
mask = maskfile,
maskcolor = "#faeef8",
outline = 4,
linecolor = "purple",
colors = :Set1_5,
angles = (0, 90),
fonts = "Tahoma",
density = 0.55,
spacing = 3,) |> generate!
paint(wc, "alice.png", ratio=0.5)try runexample(:alice) or showexample(:alice)
try runexample(:gathering) or showexample(:gathering)
try runexample(:recolor) or showexample(:recolor)
try runexample(:semantic) or showexample(:semantic)
The variable WordCloud.examples holds all available examples.
WordCloud.jl stands out from other tools due to its unique approach based on image local gradient optimization. Unlike conventional algorithms, WordCloud.jl utilizes a non-greedy algorithm that enables words to be repositioned even after their initial placement. This dynamic adjustment process provides unparalleled freedom in assigning words to any desired position, irrespective of potential overlaps. Furthermore, it eliminates the necessity of scaling words during the adjustment phase. This ingenious design choice maximizes the generator's flexibility, opening up boundless possibilities for customization.
