# QPlot

A library of for scientific plotting with Qt Widgets / C++.

[![Build Status](https://jenkins.esss.dk/dm/job/ess-dmsc/job/qplot/job/master/badge/icon)](https://jenkins.esss.dk/dm/job/ess-dmsc/job/qplot/job/master/)

[![Conan package](https://img.shields.io/badge/conan-package-blue)](https://github.com/ess-dmsc/conan-qplot)

Contains the following:

* Simple containers for list- and map-based histograms (QHist.h)

* KnightRiderWidget for scalar value visualization

  
![screenshot](documentation/screenshots/kr.png)

* [qcustomplot](https://www.qcustomplot.com/) (v2.1.0)

* Convenience classes based on qcustomplot

    - QPlot1D for 1-dimensional histogram widgets

    - QPlotDraggable for selecting points and ranges in 1d plots

A conan package of the library is available on the

[ESS Artifactory](https://artifactory.esss.lu.se/artifactory/ecdc-conan-release/).

### Building

First make sure that the environment variable `QT6_DIR` points to the root location of you Qt6 installation.

```

export QT6_DIR=/path/to/qt6/root

```

Then run the following commands

```

git clone https://github.com/ess-dmsc/qplot.git

cd qplot

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

make

```

### Miscelleanous

You can build doxygen API docs with `make api_doc`, though there is little in terms of descriptions. The [test](test) subdirectory contains some interactive examples of how each widget is to be used. You can also glean examples of usage in the following projects that make extensive use of this library

* [daquiri](https://github.com/ess-dmsc/daquiri)

* [events-nmx-classify](https://github.com/ess-dmsc/events-nmx-classify)

* [qpx-gamma](https://github.com/usnistgov/qpx-gamma)
