This project is intended to support anyone who is doing screen reading for any reason. This could be for vision-impaired people, or just people who like to listen to graphs while jogging, or just to get a handle on what's going on. Could potentially be used for generic data description also.

Katie Cunningham gave an amazing keynote at PyCon AU. Someone came up with the idea that graphs were a problem, and that maybe it would be possible to come up with a language description for those who wanted to understand the information, but couldn't see the graph.

A core library takes an abstract graph description and produces English-language text.

The basic usage is:

> import wordgraph
> text = wordgraph.describe(data, source_type)

If you have vagrant installed, you can just run vagrant up. By default the base Ubuntu 14.04 box is used; change it in Vagrantfile if you want to use a different box.

$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh

You'll now be logged into a machine with all the dependencies and wordgraph installed in the system python:

$ python3
> import wordgraph
>
