Amazon EMR cluster matplotlib error

问题

I'm using an AWS cluster EMR 5.3.1 with Hadoop + Spark + Hive + Zeppelin

When I use Zeppelin and type command:

%python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1, 2, 3])

I get error:

ImportError: Gtk3 backend requires pygobject to be installed.

How to solve it?

回答1:

Before importing pyplot module you need to change matplotlib's backend to Agg

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('Agg')
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot([1,2,3])
