"""
A directive for including a Matplotlib plot in a Sphinx document
================================================================
By default, in HTML output, `plot` will include a .png file with a link to a
high-res .png and .pdf. In LaTeX output, it will include a .pdf.
The source code for the plot may be included in one of three ways:
1. **A path to a source file** as the argument to the directive::
.. plot:: path/to/plot.py
When a path to a source file is given, the content of the
directive may optionally contain a caption for the plot::
.. plot:: path/to/plot.py
The plot's caption.
Additionally, one may specify the name of a function to call (with
no arguments) immediately after importing the module::
.. plot:: path/to/plot.py plot_function1
2. Included as **inline content** to the directive::
.. plot::
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.image as mpimg
import numpy as np
img = mpimg.imread('_static/stinkbug.png')
imgplot = plt.imshow(img)
3. Using **doctest** syntax::
.. plot::
A plotting example:
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> plt.plot([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6])
Options
-------
The ``plot`` directive supports the following options:
format : {'python', 'doctest'}
The format of the input.
include-source : bool
Whether to display the source code. The default can be changed
using the `plot_include_source` variable in :file:`conf.py`.
encoding : str
If this source file is in a non-UTF8 or non-ASCII encoding, the
encoding must be specified using the ``:encoding:`` option. The
encoding will not be inferred using the ``-*- coding -*-`` metacomment.
context : bool or str
If provided, the code will be run in the context of all previous plot
directives for which the ``:context:`` option was specified. This only
applies to inline code plot directives, not those run from files. If
the ``:context: reset`` option is specified, the context is reset
for this and future plots, and previous figures are closed prior to
running the code. ``:context: close-figs`` keeps the context but closes
previous figures before running the code.
nofigs : bool
If specified, the code block will be run, but no figures will be
inserted. This is usually useful with the ``:context:`` option.
Additionally, this directive supports all of the options of the `image`
directive, except for *target* (since plot will add its own target). These
include *alt*, *height*, *width*, *scale*, *align* and *class*.
Configuration options
---------------------
The plot directive has the following configuration options:
plot_include_source
Default value for the include-source option
plot_html_show_source_link
Whether to show a link to the source in HTML.
plot_pre_code
Code that should be executed before each plot. If not specified or None
it will default to a string containing::
import numpy as np
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
plot_basedir
Base directory, to which ``plot::`` file names are relative
to. (If None or empty, file names are relative to the
directory where the file containing the directive is.)
plot_formats
File formats to generate. List of tuples or strings::
[(suffix, dpi), suffix, ...]
that determine the file format and the DPI. For entries whose
DPI was omitted, sensible defaults are chosen. When passing from
the command line through sphinx_build the list should be passed as
suffix:dpi,suffix:dpi, ...
plot_html_show_formats
Whether to show links to the files in HTML.
plot_rcparams
A dictionary containing any non-standard rcParams that should
be applied before each plot.
plot_apply_rcparams
By default, rcParams are applied when ``:context:`` option is not used
in a plot directive. This configuration option overrides this behavior
and applies rcParams before each plot.
plot_working_directory
By default, the working directory will be changed to the directory of
the example, so the code can get at its data files, if any. Also its
path will be added to `sys.path` so it can import any helper modules
sitting beside it. This configuration option can be used to specify
a central directory (also added to `sys.path`) where data files and
helper modules for all code are located.
plot_template
Provide a customized template for preparing restructured text.
