| | A fully functional, do-nothing backend intended as a template for backend |
| | writers. It is fully functional in that you can select it as a backend e.g. |
| | with :: |
| | |
| | import matplotlib |
| | matplotlib.use("template") |
| | |
| | and your program will (should!) run without error, though no output is |
| | produced. This provides a starting point for backend writers; you can |
| | selectively implement drawing methods (`~.RendererTemplate.draw_path`, |
| | `~.RendererTemplate.draw_image`, etc.) and slowly see your figure come to life |
| | instead having to have a full-blown implementation before getting any results. |
| | |
| | Copy this file to a directory outside the Matplotlib source tree, somewhere |
| | where Python can import it (by adding the directory to your ``sys.path`` or by |
| | packaging it as a normal Python package); if the backend is importable as |
| | ``import my.backend`` you can then select it using :: |
| | |
| | import matplotlib |
| | matplotlib.use("module://my.backend") |
| | |
| | If your backend implements support for saving figures (i.e. has a `print_xyz` |
| | method), you can register it as the default handler for a given file type:: |
| | |
| | from matplotlib.backend_bases import register_backend |
| | register_backend('xyz', 'my_backend', 'XYZ File Format') |
| | ... |
| | plt.savefig("figure.xyz") |
