Installation

Official releases

Official releases are available through the conda-forge channel or pip

conda install mpl-probscale --channel=conda-forge

pip install probscale

Development builds

This is a pure-python package, so building from source is easy on all platforms:

git clone git@github.com:matplotlib/mpl-probscale.git
cd mpl-probscale
pip install -e .

Quick start

Simply importing probscale lets you use probability scales in your matplotlib figures:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import probscale

fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 4))
ax.set_ylim(1e-2, 1e2)
ax.set_yscale('log')

ax.set_xlim(0.5, 99.5)
ax.set_xscale('prob')

Testing

Testing is generally done via the pytest and numpy.testing modules. The best way to run the tests is in an interactive python session:

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('agg')
from probscale import tests
tests.test()
