First, you can invoke the demo from the command line by saying perl -MPDL::Demos::Prima Second, you can invoke the demo from with the pdl shell by saying pdl> demo prima Finally, all of the content is in the pod documentation, so you can simply read this, though it won't be quite so interactive. :-) perldoc PDL::Demos::Prima podview PDL::Demos::Prima =head1 DESCRIPTION The documentation in this module is meant to give a short, hands-on introduction to L<PDL::Graphics::Prima|PDL::Graphics::Prima/>, a plotting library written on top of the L<Prima|Prima/> GUI toolkit. =cut ############################## # Check load status of Prima # ############################## my $min_version = 0.13; my $loaded_prima = eval { require PDL::Graphics::Prima; return 0 if $PDL::Graphics::Prima::VERSION < $min_version; require PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple; PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple->import(); require Prima::Application; Prima::Application->import(); 1; }; ########################################### # Pull the demo pod into a data structure # ########################################### # Pull the pod apart into the following sort of array structure # @demo = ( # 'Introduction' => $first_paragraph => $first_code, # 'Introduction' => $second_paragraph => $second_code, # ... # 'First steps' => $first_paragraph => $first_code, # ... # ); my (@demo, $curr_section, $curr_par, $curr_code); my $curr_state = 'section_title'; while(my $line = <DATA>) { # Only =head2s in this documentation last if $line =~ /=head1/; if ($line =~ /^=head2 (.*)/) { # Add the current section's name and an empty arrayref $curr_section = $1; } elsif ($line =~ /^\n/) { if (defined $curr_par and defined $curr_code) { push @demo, $curr_section, $curr_par, $curr_code; $curr_par = $curr_code = undef; } } elsif (not defined $curr_par) { $curr_par = $line; } elsif (not defined $curr_code and $line !~ /^\s/) { $curr_par .= $line; } elsif ($line =~ /^\s/) { # Accumulate code lines, stripping off the leading space $line =~ s/^\s//; $curr_code .= $line; } } # Add some extra content for Prima viewing only if ($loaded_prima) { unshift @demo, 'Introduction', 'This is the demo for L<PDL::Graphics::Prima|PDL::Graphics::Prima/>.

This module provides a set of friendly wrappers for simple, first-cut data visualization. L<PDL::Graphics::Prima|PDL::Graphics::Prima/>, the underlying library, is a general-purpose 2D plotting library built as a widget in the L<Prima GUI toolkit|Prima/>, but we don't need the full functionality for the purposes of this demo. use PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple; my $x = sequence(100)/10; line_plot($x, $x->sin); =head2 More than just lines! In addition to numerous ways to plot x/y data, you can also plot distributions and images. The best run-down of the simple plotting routines can be found in L<the Synopsis for PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple/SYNOPSIS>. $distribution = grandom(100); hist_plot($distribution); $x = sequence(100)/10; cross_plot($x, $x->sin); $image = rvals(100, 100); matrix_plot($image); =head2 Mouse Interaction Plots allow for L<mouse interaction|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple/"Interactive Features">, herein referred to as twiddling. You can resize the window, zoom with the scroll wheel, or click and drag the canvas around. There is also a right-click zoom-rectangle, and a right-click context menu. hist_plot(grandom(100)); # Run this, then try using your mouse In your Perl scripts, and in the PDL shell for some operating systems and some versions of L<Term::ReadLine>, twiddling will cause your script to pause when you create a new plot. To resume your script or return execution to the shell, either close the window or press 'q'. # If your PDL shell supports simultaneous # input and plot interaction, running this # should display both plots simultaneously: $x = sequence(100)/10; cross_plot($x, $x->sin); line_plot($x, $x->cos); =head2 Multiple plots without blocking The blocking behavior just discussed is due to what is called autotwiddling. To turn this off, simply send a boolean false value to auto_twiddle. Then, be sure to invoke twiddling when you're done creating your plots. auto_twiddle(0); hist_plot(grandom(100)); matrix_plot(rvals(100, 100)); twiddle(); Once turned off, autotwiddling will remain off until you turn it back on. # autotwiddling still off hist_plot(grandom(100)); matrix_plot(rvals(100, 100)); twiddle(); =head2 Adding a title and axis labels Functions like L<hist_plot|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple/hist_plot>, L<cross_plot|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple/cross_plot>, and L<matrix_plot|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple/matrix_plot> actually create and return plot objects which you can subsequently modify. For example, adding a title and axis labels are pretty easy. For titles, you call the L<title method on the plot object|PDL::Graphics::Prima/title>. For axis labels, you call the L<label method on the axis objects|PDL::Graphics::Prima::Axis/label>. # Make sure autotwiddling is off in your script auto_twiddle(0); # Build the plot my $x = sequence(100)/10; my $plot = line_plot($x, $x->sin); # Add the title and labels $plot->title('Harmonic Oscillator'); $plot->x->label('Time [s]'); $plot->y->label('Displacement [cm]'); # Manually twiddle once everything is finished twiddle(); =head2 Saving to a file L<PDL::Graphics::Prima::Simple> excels at user interaction, but you can save your plots to a file using L<save_to_file|PDL::Graphics::Prima/save_to_file> or L<save_to_postscript|PDL::Graphics::Prima/save_to_postscript> methods, or by right-clicking and selecting the appropriate menu option. auto_twiddle(0); $x = sequence(100)/10; line_plot($x, $x->sin)->save_to_postscript; # You can supply a filename to the method if you like. # Also available is save_to_file, which saves to raster # file formats. Expect save_to_postscript to be merged # into save_to_file in the future. =head2 Adding additional data to the plot Once you have created a plot, you can L<add additional data to it|PDL::Graphics::Prima/dataSets>. You achieve this by adding a new L<DataSet|PDL::Graphics::Prima::DataSet> with the data you want displayed. auto_twiddle(0); my $plot = hist_plot(grandom(100)); # Add a Gaussian curve that "fits" the data use PDL::Constants qw(PI); my $fit_xs = zeroes(100)->xlinvals(-2, 2); my $fit_ys = exp(-$fit_xs**2 / 2) / sqrt(2*PI); $plot->dataSets->{fit_curve} = ds::Pair($fit_xs, $fit_ys); twiddle(); The default L<plot type|PDL::Graphics::Prima::PlotType/> for L<pairwise data|PDL::Graphics::Prima::DataSet/Pair> is L<Diamonds|PDL::Graphics::Prima::PlotType/ppair::Diamonds>. You can choose a L<different pairwise plot type|PDL::Graphics::Prima::PlotType/Pairs>, or even mix and match L<multiple pairwise plot types|PDL::Graphics::Prima::PlotType/SYNOPSIS>. auto_twiddle(0); my $plot = hist_plot(grandom(100)); # Add a Gaussian curve that "fits" the data use PDL::Constants qw(PI); my $fit_xs = zeroes(200)->xlinvals(-5, 5); my $fit_ys = exp(-$fit_xs**2 / 2) / sqrt(2*PI); $plot->dataSets->{fit_curve} = ds::Pair($fit_xs, $fit_ys, # Use lines plotTypes => [ ppair::Lines( # with a thickness of three pixels lineWidth => 3, # And the color red color => cl::LightRed, ), ppair::Diamonds, ], ); twiddle(); =head2 The plot command If you want to specify everything in one command, you can use the plot function. This lets you put everything together that we've already discussed, including multiple DataSets in a single command, title specification, and x and y axis options. # Generate some data: my $xs = sequence(100)/10 + 0.1; my $ys = $xs->sin + $xs->grandom / 10; my $y_err = $ys->grandom/10; # Plot the data and the fit plot( -data => ds::Pair($xs, $ys, plotTypes => [ ppair::Triangles(filled => 1), ppair::ErrorBars(y_err => $y_err), ], ), -fit => ds::Func(\&PDL::sin, lineWidth => 3, color => cl::LightRed, ), -note => ds::Note( pnote::Text('Incoming Signal', x => 0.2, y => sin(0.2) . '-3em', ), ), title => 'Noisey Sine Wave', x => { label => 'Time [s]', scaling => sc::Log, }, y => { label => 'Measurement [Amp]' }, ); =head2 Enjoy PDL::Graphics::Prima! I hope you've enjoyed the tour, and I hope you find L<PDL::Graphics::Prima|PDL::Graphics::Prima/> to be a useful plotting tool! # Thanks! =head1 AUTHOR David Mertens C<dcmertens.perl@gmail.com> =head1 LICENSE AND COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2013, David Mertens.
