Produce publication-level quality images on top of Matplotlib
Project description
Publib
Produce publication-level quality images on top of Matplotlib
For similar librairies, see seaborn, which also add neat high-end API to Matplotlib function calls.
Use
At the beginning of the script, call:
set_style()After each new axe is plotted, call:
buff_style()Note that importing publib will already load the default style.
A couple more styles (‘poster’, ‘article’) can be selected with the function set_style()
Because some matplotlib parameters cannot be changed before the lines are plotted, they are called through the function buff_style() which:
changes the minor ticks
remove the spines
turn the legend draggable by default
Examples
#!/usr/bin/env python
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import publib
a = np.linspace(0,6.28)
plt.plot(a,np.cos(a)) # plotted by publib 'default' style
plt.show()
publib.set_style('article')
plt.plot(a,a**2)
publib.buff_style('article')
plt.show()Release history Release notifications | RSS feed
