Header-only terminal plotting library for C++

Primary LanguageC++MIT LicenseMIT

C++ terminal plotting library

Build Status

WARNING: This library is a work in progress!

Header-only.

Compile examples with C++14 support; link with -lm (gcc/libstdc++ >= 4.9 required; tested with gcc 4.9, gcc 6.0 and clang 3.9). The library tries to detect terminal capabilities automatically; a xterm-compatible terminal is recommended.

A CMake build environment is provided which will build examples and optionally pack headers into a single header library.

Please note that non-POSIX platforms (e.g. Windows) are currently not supported and compilation for them will fail.

Packing headers

pack.py is a python script which can pack all headers into a single-header library. The following command will generate a header file (plot_lib.hpp) ready for inclusion in other projects.

./pack.py plot.hpp > plot_lib.hpp

The script will be run automatically by the CMake build system when the BUILD_SINGLE_HEADER option is set. A file named plot.hpp will be created in the build dir. A working Python 3 installation is required.
