mpl-third-party

List of matplotlib user-contributed packages. These are served at http://matplotlib.org/mpl-third-party/.

To add your package to the list, create a YAML file your-cool-mpl-package.yml in the packages directory. The file must have the following fields:

repo: matplotlib/cmocean
section: colormaps
description: Perceptually uniform colormaps for commonly-used oceanographic variables
site: # optional, default repo site
keywords:  # optional,
pypi_name:  # optional, default repo name
conda_package:  # optional
conda_channel:  # optional, default conda-forge

Either fork this repo and add the new file there, or navigate into the packages directory above and use the Add File button at the top of the page. Then open a pull request with the new file.

Note: The name of the yml file and the name of the repo should ideally match.

The section entry should be one of the sections listed in ./section_names.yml.

Development

The list of yml files in packages/ is parsed by python/build.py using template.rst and the result is saved to docs/source/packages.rst. This script is called by docs/Makefile using make html. This runs a sphinx-build and makes the page at build/html/index.html.

This was heavily based on the nice work at https://pyviz.org.
