ggplot

What is it? ~~~~~~~~~~~

ggplot is a Python implementation of the grammar of graphics. It is not intended to be a feature-for-feature port of `ggplot2 for R https://github.com/hadley/ggplot2`__--though there is much greatness in ggplot2, the Python world could stand to benefit from it. So there will be feature overlap, but not neccessarily mimicry (after all, R is a little weird).

You can do cool things like this:

.. code:: python

ggplot(diamonds, aes(x='price', color='clarity')) + \
    geom_density() + \
    scale_color_brewer(type='div', palette=7) + \
    facet_wrap('cut')

.. figure:: ./docs/example.png :alt:

Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: bash

$ pip install -U ggplot
# or 
$ conda install -c conda-forge ggplot
# or
pip install git+https://github.com/yhat/ggplot.git

Examples ~~~~~~~~

Examples are the best way to learn. There is a Jupyter Notebook full of them. There are also notebooks that show how to do particular things with ggplot (i.e. make a scatter plot <./docs/how-to/Making%20a%20Scatter%20Plot.ipynb>_ or make a histogram <./docs/how-to/Making%20a%20Scatter%20Plot.ipynb>_).

What happened to the old version that didn't work? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's gone--the windows, the doors, everything <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuxCKv_0GZc>. Just kidding, you can find it here <https://github.com/yhat/ggplot/tree/v0.6.6>, though I'm not sure why you'd want to look at it. The data grouping and manipulation bits were re-written (so they actually worked) with things like facets in mind.
