plotting in the terminal

what is it?
bashplotlib is a python package and command line tool for making basic
plots in the terminal. It’s a quick way to visualize data when you don’t
have a GUI. It’s written in pure python and can quickly be installed
anywhere using pip.


installation

install with pip
$ pip install bashplotlib


install from source
$ git clone [email protected]:glamp/bashplotlib.git
$ cd bashplotlib
$ python setup.py install
Either method will install the bashplotlib python package and will also
add hist and scatter to your python scripts folder. This folder should
be on your path (add it if it’s not).



features

quick plotting from the command line
customize the color, size, title, and shape of plots

usage

command line
hist takes input from either stdin or specified using the -f parameter.
Input should be a single column of numbers. scatter takes x and y
coordinates as input form either a comma delimited file using -f or from
2 different files using -x and -y.


in python
If you want to use bashplotlib from python, just import histogram and
scatterplot.
from bashplotlib.scatterplot import plot_scatter
from bashplotlib.histogram import plot_hist
