Render Pandas DataFrame as HTML Table - Python Examples

Pandas - Render DataFrame as HTML Table

You can convert DataFrame to a table in HTML, to represent the DataFrame in web pages.

To render a Pandas DataFrame to HTML Table, use pandas.DataFrame.to_html() method.

The total DataFrame is converted to <table> html element, while the column names are wrapped under <thead> table head html element. And, each row of DataFrame is converted to a row <tr> in HTML table.

Examples

1. Render DataFrame as HTML table

In this example, we will initialize a DataFrame and render it into HTML Table.

Python Program

import pandas as pd

# create dataframe
df_marks = pd.DataFrame({'name': ['Somu', 'Kiku', 'Amol', 'Lini'],
     'physics': [68, 74, 77, 78],
     'chemistry': [84, 56, 73, 69],
     'algebra': [78, 88, 82, 87]})

# render dataframe as html
html = df_marks.to_html()
print(html)

Output

<table border="1" class="dataframe">
  <thead>
    <tr style="text-align: right;">
      <th></th>
      <th>name</th>
      <th>physics</th>
      <th>chemistry</th>
      <th>algebra</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th>0</th>
      <td>Somu</td>
      <td>68</td>
      <td>84</td>
      <td>78</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th>1</th>
      <td>Kiku</td>
      <td>74</td>
      <td>56</td>
      <td>88</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th>2</th>
      <td>Amol</td>
      <td>77</td>
      <td>73</td>
      <td>82</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th>3</th>
      <td>Lini</td>
      <td>78</td>
      <td>69</td>
      <td>87</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

Let us write the html data to a file using Python.

Python Program

import pandas as pd

#create dataframe
df_marks = pd.DataFrame({'name': ['Somu', 'Kiku', 'Amol', 'Lini'],
     'physics': [68, 74, 77, 78],
     'chemistry': [84, 56, 73, 69],
     'algebra': [78, 88, 82, 87]})

#render dataframe as html
html = df_marks.to_html()

#write html to file
text_file = open("index.html", "w")
text_file.write(html)
text_file.close()

The file will be created with html data in the current working directory.

Now, open the html file with browser. The output should look similar to the following screenshot.
