A plotting library with a focus on publication level aesthetics and ergonomic control.

Structure

  • Plots are drawn on a Subplot.
  • One or more subplots are organized in a Layout.
  • The layout is added to a Figure, which is used to draw to a file or directly to a Backend.

Use

To get started, see the examples directory in the main repository.

Example

// create data
//let xs = ...;
//let ys = ...;

// create subplot
let mut sp = plt::Subplot::builder()
    .xlabel("x data")
    .ylabel("y data")
    .build();

// plot data
sp.plot(plt::PlotData::new(&xs, &ys)).unwrap();

// make figure and add subplot
let mut fig = <plt::Figure>::default();
fig.set_layout(plt::SingleLayout::new(sp)).unwrap();

// save figure to file
fig.draw_file(plt::FileFormat::Png, "example.png").unwrap();
