# matplotlib-config
**matplotlib-config** is a set of defaults and utility functions for
[matplotlib 3+](https://www.matplotlib.org).
## Dependencies
* matplotlib3.0.0+ (tested on matplotlib 3.6.2)
* python3 (tested on python 3.9.18)
## Usage
Our use case in generating figures is typically one figure and
corresponding source file per directory.
The easiest way to use this in your project is to copy
`local_mpl_config.py` somewhere (manually or use `git submodule`), and
then create a symlink to it in each figure's sub-directory.
An example directory structure:
```
figures/sample-plot/plot.pdf
figures/sample-plot/plot.py
figures/sample-plot/local_mpl_config.py -> ../local_mpl_config.py
figures/another-example/plot.pdf
figures/another-example/plot.py
figures/another-example/local_mpl_config.py -> ../local_mpl_config.py
figures/local_mpl_config.py
```
In your Python source code, the following is the minimum to get started:
```python
import local_mpl_config as lmc
lmc.initialize()
```
See the [example](#example) for additional usage.
You can also generate documentation using `pydoc`:
```bash
pydoc -w local_mpl_config
```
## Example
Running [example.py](example.py) will produce the following:
