Jarvis-PLOT: YAML-driven plotting engine

Jarvis-PLOT

Jarvis-PLOT is a lightweight, Python/Matplotlib-based plotting framework developed for Jarvis-HEP,
but it can also be used as a standalone scientific plotting tool.

It provides a simple command-line interface (CLI) to generate publication-quality figures from YAML configuration files, with most layout and style decisions handled by predefined profiles and style cards.

Installation

pip install Jarvis-PLOT

The PyPI distribution name is now Jarvis-PLOT. The Python import package and entrypoint remain unchanged:

import jarvisplot

jplot path/to/config.yaml

If you have an older environment that still uses the historical package name, replace:

pip uninstall jarvisplot
pip install Jarvis-PLOT

Command-Line Usage

Display help information:

jplot -h

Run Jarvis-PLOT with one or more YAML configuration files:

jplot path/to/config.yaml

Rebuild local cache for the current project workdir:

jplot path/to/config.yaml --rebuild-cache

Project Workdir and Cache

• You can set project.workdir in YAML.
• If output.dir is omitted, Jarvis-PLOT defaults to <workdir>/plots/.
• Data cache is stored in <workdir>/.cache/.
• Profiling pipelines are prebuilt once and reused from cache when source fingerprint and profile settings are unchanged.
• Profiling uses a fast two-stage grid reduction (pregrid + render bin) for large datasets.

Example: SUSYRun2 Ternary Plots

jplot ./bin/SUSYRun2_EWMSSM.yaml
jplot ./bin/SUSYRun2_GEWMSSM.yaml

Note: The data file paths inside the YAML files must be updated to match your local setup.

Example: Dynesty Runplot

Jarvis-PLOT includes a reusable dynesty runplot format. With a dataset named dynesty, the figure can use the built-in card without writing axes or layer details:

DataSet:
- name: dynesty
  path: path/to/dynesty_result.csv
  type: csv

Figures:
- name: dynesty_logL_vs_logX
  enable: true
  style:
  - a4paper_2x1
  - dynesty_runplot

See docs/specs/DYNESTY_RUNPLOT.md for the default axes, KDE, scatter overlay, and evidence summary behavior.

Notes

• Figures are saved automatically to the output paths defined in the YAML configuration.
• Common output formats include PNG and PDF (backend-dependent).
• Saved figures include file metadata such as Creator: Jarvis-PLOT, powered by Jarvis-HEP and Jarvis-PLOT version: X.Y.Z; the PNG Description also includes both fields for macOS Finder compatibility.
• Jarvis-PLOT works in headless environments (SSH, batch jobs) without any GUI backend.
