Plotlywrapper wraps plotly to make easy plots easy to make. Check out the docs!

2D Brownian Bridge

Motivation

Compare the following code snippets which generate the same plot.

Plotly

Taken from https://plot.ly/python/getting-started/

import plotly
from plotly.graph_objs import Scatter, Layout
plotly.offline.plot({
"data": [
    Scatter(x=[1, 2, 3, 4], y=[4, 1, 3, 7])
],
"layout": Layout(
    title="hello world"
)
})

Plotlywrapper

import plotlywrapper as pw
plot = pw.line(x=[1, 2, 3, 4], y=[4, 1, 3, 7])
plot.title('hello world')
plot.show()

Install

To install the latest release:
