Using holoviews

[basnijholt]

This package looks great!

You seem to have implemented an interface on top of bokeh and matplotlib, are you aware of the existence of holoviews?

I think that using HoloViews will greatly reduce the amount of code here :)

Thanks! Yes, holoviews (and holoplot) look like they would be by far the most sensible way to go now - I still need to get round to learning them properly.

The plotting aspect of xyzpy started a while before I knew about them and is really just things I have added ad-hoc when I needed them. So the whole thing is a bit of an unguided mess, albeit a functional one and convenient for me! I am tempted to make the link to holoviews a bit more prominent though.
