A collection of helper functions for Matplotlib

This package is not distributed on PyPI, it must be installed from source. If using Poetry to manage dependencies, installation is:

poetry add git+https://github.com/colinahill/mpl_utils.git

This project uses Poetry to manage dependencies.

An environment with Python version 3.11 or later is required. If you don't have this, it can be created using Pyenv which should be installed first. After installing Pyenv, download and install Python 3.11 using

pyenv install 3.11

If you already have Python version 3.11 or later you can skip this step.

Clone the repo and install the package:

git clone https://github.com/colinahill/mpl_utils.git && cd mpl_utils

(Optional) In the case where Poetry doesn't automatically find the correct Python path, you can set it with

pyenv local 3.11
poetry env use 3.11

Then install the package

poetry install  # Creates a virtualenv and installs package into it
poetry shell  # Opens a sub-shell in the virtualenv
