A simplest interface library to enable your java project to use matplotlib.
Of course it is able to be imported to scala project as below. The API is designed as similar to the original matplotlib's.
Here is an example. Find more examples on MainTest.java
Plot plt = Plot.create();
plt.plot()
.add(Arrays.asList(1.3, 2))
.label("label")
.linestyle("--");
plt.xlabel("xlabel");
plt.ylabel("ylabel");
plt.text(0.5, 0.2, "text");
plt.title("Title!");
plt.legend();
plt.show();Another example to draw Contour.
// Data generation
List<Double> x = NumpyUtils.linspace(-1, 1, 100);
List<Double> y = NumpyUtils.linspace(-1, 1, 100);
NumpyUtils.Grid<Double> grid = NumpyUtils.meshgrid(x, y);
List<List<Double>> zCalced = grid.calcZ((xi, yj) -> Math.sqrt(xi * xi + yj * yj));
// Plotting
Plot plt = Plot.create();
ContourBuilder contour = plt.contour().add(x, y, zCalced);
plt.clabel(contour)
.inline(true)
.fontsize(10);
plt.title("contour");
plt.legend().loc("upper right");
plt.show();In addition to the interactive window opened by .show(), .savefig() is also supported.
Only one thing to note is that plt.executeSilently() triggers to output figure files after calling .savefig().
This is by design as method chain coding style.
Random rand = new Random();
List<Double> x = IntStream.range(0, 1000).mapToObj(i -> rand.nextGaussian())
.collect(Collectors.toList());
Plot plt = Plot.create();
plt.hist().add(x).orientation(HistBuilder.Orientation.horizontal);
plt.ylim(-5, 5);
plt.title("histogram");
plt.savefig("/tmp/histogram.png").dpi(200);
// Don't miss this line to output the file!
plt.executeSilently();This code generates the following picture at /tmp/histogram.png.
- plot()
- pcolor()
- contour()
- hist()
- savefig()
- subplot()
- xlim(), ylim(), xscale(), yscale(), xlabel(), ylabel()
It is possible to choose a python environment to run matplotlib with pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv support. Create Plot object by specifying existing names as follows.
// with pyenv name
Plot plt = Plot.create(PythonConfig.pyenvConfig("anaconda3-4.4.0"));
// with pyenv and virtualenv name
Plot plt = Plot.create(PythonConfig.pyenvVirtualenvConfig("anaconda3-4.4.0", "env_plot"));- Java 8
- Python with Matplotlib installed
It may work with almost all not too old Python and Matplotlib versions, but no guarantee. It has been tested with
- Python 2.7.10, 3.6.1
- Matplotlib 1.3.1, 2.0.2
If it does not work on your environment, please report that through github issue with the error message and your environment (OS, python and matplotlib versions).
This library is now found on maven central repository.
Import to your projects as follows.
