MacPorts Installation¶
Required¶
There isn’t a MacPorts package for Toyplot yet, but you can still use MacPorts to install the Dependencies before installing Toyplot using pip:
$ sudo port install py-multipledispatch
$ sudo port install py-numpy
$ sudo port install py-pip
$ sudo port install py-reportlab
$ sudo port select --set pip pip27
$ sudo pip install toyplot
PNG Export¶
To generate static PNG versions of your Toyplot figures, you’ll need Ghostscript:
$ sudo port install ghostscript
MP4 Export¶
If you plan to render animated Toyplot figures as MP4 files, you’ll need all the above for exporting PNG images, plus ffmpeg:
$ sudo port install ffmpeg
