The Plot system provides a way to visualise data. It includes functions for text-based plotting that work in the REPL, and JavaScript visualisations that are rendered in a browser. It is designed as a front end 'grammar', modeled after that Grammar of Graphics and implemented with various back ends. Currently Vega-Lite is complete as a backend. It is integrated with data-frame, and can also be used independently.

• cl-spark
• yason
• LASS

To get a local copy up and running follow these steps:

An ANSI Common Lisp implementation. Developed and tested with SBCL and CCL.

To make the system accessible to ASDF (a build facility, similar to make in the C world), clone the repository in a directory ASDF knows about. By default the common-lisp directory in your home directory is known. Create this if it doesn't already exist and then:

1. Clone the repositories

cd ~/common-lisp && \
git clone https://github.com/Lisp-Stat/plot

2. From the REPL reset the ASDF source-registry to find the new systems:

   (asdf:clear-source-registry)

3. Load the system

   (asdf:load-system :plot/vega)

If you have installed the slime ASDF extensions, you can invoke this with a comma (',') from the slime REPL.

To get the third party systems that these system may depend on you can use a dependency manager, such as Quicklisp or CLPM Once installed, get the dependencies with either of:

(clpm-client:sync :sources "clpi") ;sources may vary

(ql:quickload :plot)

You need do this only once. After obtaining the dependencies, you can load the system with ASDF as described above without first syncing sources.

For examples, please refer to the Documentation.
