This crate implements high-level functions to generate plots and drawings. Although we use Python/Matplotlib, the goal is to provide a convenient Rust library that is different than Matplotlib. The difference happens because we want convenience for the Rust developer while getting the fantastic quality of Matplotlib 😀.
Internally, we use Matplotlib via a Python 3 script. First, we generate a python code in a directory of your choice (e.g., /tmp/plotpy
), and then we call python3 using Rust's std::process::Command
.
For more information (and examples), check out the plotpy documentation on docs.rs.
See also the examples directory with the output of the integration tests.
This crate needs Python3 and Matplotlib, of course.
On Debian/Ubuntu/Linux, run:
sudo apt install python3-matplotlib
👆 Check the crate version and update your Cargo.toml accordingly:
