How to display the value of the bar on each bar with pyplot.barh()?

Question

I generated a bar plot, how can I display the value of the bar on each bar?

Current plot:

Answer 1

I needed the bar labels too, note that my y-axis is having a zoomed view using limits on y axis. The default calculations for putting the labels on top of the bar still works using height (use_global_coordinate=False in the example). But I wanted to show that the labels can be put in the bottom of the graph too in zoomed view using global coordinates in matplotlib 3.0.2. Hope it help someone.

def autolabel(rects,data):
"""
Attach a text label above each bar displaying its height
"""
c = 0
initial = 0.091
offset = 0.205
use_global_coordinate = True

if use_global_coordinate:
    for i in data:        
        ax.text(initial+offset*c, 0.05, str(i), horizontalalignment='center',
                verticalalignment='center', transform=ax.transAxes,fontsize=8)
        c=c+1
else:
    for rect,i in zip(rects,data):
        height = rect.get_height()
        ax.text(rect.get_x() + rect.get_width()/2., height,str(i),ha='center', va='bottom')
