matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib

I presume you mean pypi said that the latest version was 1.0.1? PyPi
recently (and rightly so) stopped automatically pull eggs from third-party
locations (this is a *huge* security risk). Version 1.0.1 was the last
version that was directly hosted on PyPi because the test suite made the
package so much bigger after that version.
There was talk about granting "top-tier" projects like matplotlib and
basemap special permission to upload larger eggs to PyPi. I don't know if
that has happened yet.
Cheers!

I faced the problem of upgrading my matplotlib to 1.3.1 having my
python2.7. Its on Fedora am talking about. Its the dmg file available here
http://matplotlib.org/downloads.html
When I checked for upgrading from Terminal, it said matplotlib1.0.1 is the
latest version.

Perhaps Anaconda would be best for an easy to install environment and much
of the commonly used scientific computing tools?
http://continuum.io/downloads
As for PyNIO, due to licensing issues, it isn't installable through pip or
easy_install. If you go to their website and create a free account, you can
get an installer that would work fine out of the box, but I have never
tried to install PyNIO in an Anaconda environment.
https://www.pyngl.ucar.edu/Download/install_from_binary.shtml
As for "reading" IDL from python, no such thing exists AFAIK. I have come
across this tool: https://code.google.com/p/i2py/. I have never used it
(luckily), so I can't vouch for its usefulness. The goal of i2py is not to
be a one-to-one converter of IDL code into python, but rather to be an
assistant when migrating an IDL codebase into Python. The human still has
to go over the resulting code and make it valid. The most important thing
for the code migration is to start with unit tests in IDL, and then have
identical unit tests in python. This helps to make sure all of the code is
doing exactly what you expect them to do before and after code migration.
Best of luck to you!

One possibility is that with v1.3, we changed how packaging was done.
Unfortunately, this did cause some transitional issues. The best bet is to
uninstall *all* versions of matplotlib, pylab, and mpl_toolkits first, then
re-install v1.3.1. Note that waiting for the v1.4 release wouldn't
necessarily solve anything as it is the transition *from* older versions of
matplotlib that is the issue rather than transitioning *to* newer versions.
Hopefully this helps,
Ben Root

matplotlib 1.3.1 works quite well with python 2.7.

I never recommend pip to Windows users (at least not until everything is in
wheels).
The last few times I had no problem `easy_install`ing the matplotlib exe
installer in a virtualenv, nor any of the other exe installers.
(pip is for Linux users, I never found anything better than easy_install on
Windows.)

Hello dydy,
If you've never done programing in python I would recommend a book
"dive into python" any version will do but the latest one is 3 I
think. Asking this questions in tut...@py... will probably
get you even further since they mainly deal with general python
learning.
Whatever you can use through command prompt you can use in python if
you use import subprocess. Subprocess.call("command") calls whatever
command you want over the command line. If you can call IDL to run
files over command line this can be an option. If not you're going to
have to use a wrapper tool like SWIG is foc c/c++ or another module to
connect to IDL. A useful module here will usually be os as well.
As for installations of modules under windows platforms, that's always
tricky, I recommend using a virtualenv with pip, because then
generally installing a module boils down to using "pip install". But
even in virtualenv on windows I've had issues with installing i.e.
matplotlib and found it impossible and I've had to install it
system-wide by using one of the unofficial binary installers from:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and from then I have to
start start each virtualenv with the option --system-site-packages
which kind of defeats the purpose of a virtualenv, but such is the
nature of developing on win's....
(I've read that you can activate local modules by hand, but I've not
been able to reproduce it)
I know this is a bunch of new info, I suggest you read up on it, best of luck,
Dino

Hey, even I had similar issue.
Later I learnt python2.7 could support matplotlib version1.0.1 only.
So if you want to upgrade your matplotlib, you first need to upgrade your
python.

Hello all,
I interested in python programming that is why I join in this forum.
I want to know how to install new module in my python program?. I use python
under windows OS.
Actually, I interest with PyNio but I don't know how to install it.
Another question is how to make other language, for example, IDL, can be
read in python?
Thank you....
Dydy
