Im using python 3.4 and Django 1.8. I want to \"print\" a matplotlib result in a Django template. I reach this a few days ago, so I continue in other things of my Django App
The final solution was to create a special view that returns the matplotlib plot in an empty template, like this:
def grafico (rquest):
pos = arange(10)+ 2
barh(pos,(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10),align = 'center')
yticks(pos,('#hcsm','#ukmedlibs','#ImmunoChat','#HCLDR','#ICTD2015','#hpmglobal','#BRCA','#BCSM','#BTSM','#OTalk'))
xlabel('Popularidad')
ylabel('Hashtags')
title('Gráfico de Hashtags')
subplots_adjust(left=0.21)
buffer = io.BytesIO()
canvas = pylab.get_current_fig_manager().canvas
canvas.draw()
graphIMG = PIL.Image.fromstring('RGB', canvas.get_width_height(), canvas.tostring_rgb())
graphIMG.save(buffer, "PNG")
pylab.close()
return HttpResponse (buffer.getvalue(), content_type="Image/png")
The next step is to put in your template this:
And thats all!
