Timeseries plot with min/max shading using Seaborn

Question

I am trying to create a 3-line time series plot based on the following data , in a Week x Overload graph, where each Cluster is a different line.

I have multiple obs

Based off this incredible answer, I was able to create a monkey patch to beautifully do what you are looking for.

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns    
import seaborn.timeseries

def _plot_range_band(*args, central_data=None, ci=None, data=None, **kwargs):
    upper = data.max(axis=0)
    lower = data.min(axis=0)
    #import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
    ci = np.asarray((lower, upper))
    kwargs.update({"central_data": central_data, "ci": ci, "data": data})
    seaborn.timeseries._plot_ci_band(*args, **kwargs)

seaborn.timeseries._plot_range_band = _plot_range_band

cluster_overload = pd.read_csv("TSplot.csv", delim_whitespace=True)
cluster_overload['Unit'] = cluster_overload.groupby(['Cluster','Week']).cumcount()

ax = sns.tsplot(time='Week',value="Overload", condition="Cluster", unit="Unit", data=cluster_overload,
               err_style="range_band", n_boot=0)

Output Graph:

Notice that the shaded regions line up with the true maximum and minimums in the line graph!

If you figure out why the unit variable is required, please let me know.

If you do not want them all on the same graph then:

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
import seaborn.timeseries


def _plot_range_band(*args, central_data=None, ci=None, data=None, **kwargs):
    upper = data.max(axis=0)
    lower = data.min(axis=0)
    #import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
    ci = np.asarray((lower, upper))
    kwargs.update({"central_data": central_data, "ci": ci, "data": data})
    seaborn.timeseries._plot_ci_band(*args, **kwargs)

seaborn.timeseries._plot_range_band = _plot_range_band

cluster_overload = pd.read_csv("TSplot.csv", delim_whitespace=True)
cluster_overload['subindex'] = cluster_overload.groupby(['Cluster','Week']).cumcount()

def customPlot(*args,**kwargs):
    df = kwargs.pop('data')
    pivoted = df.pivot(index='subindex', columns='Week', values='Overload')
    ax = sns.tsplot(pivoted.values, err_style="range_band", n_boot=0, color=kwargs['color'])

g = sns.FacetGrid(cluster_overload, row="Cluster", sharey=False, hue='Cluster', aspect=3)
g = g.map_dataframe(customPlot, 'Week', 'Overload','subindex')

Which produces the following, (you can obviously play with the aspect ratio if you think the proportions are off)
