Consider moving to JuliaPlots #34

Closed BeastyBlacksmith closed 4 days ago

BeastyBlacksmith commented 1 year ago

I am currently in the process of preventing that Plots.jl's backends go unmaintained so I'd like you to think about moving this repository even if you currently think this may never happen in your case, since usually people are pretty bad at predicting when that happens ;)

Best, Simon

Hi Simon! Sorry: I didn't even see this (I haven't been active here in quit a while)

Agreed: This is a problem. Maintaining something that I don't currently need is not all that practical.

I don't mind transferring over InspectDR to Julia plots - especially if people want to enhance it.

I'm not sure this is still something you want to do anymore - given that you've recently removed InspectDR from Plots.jl.

Let me know.

BeastyBlacksmith commented 2 weeks ago

I am still happy to do that

ma-laforge commented 1 week ago

Ok. I tried transferring, but I got: "You don’t have the permission to create public repositories on JuliaPlots."

Thought I was making a request to be approved by the organization - but I guess not.

Please let me know how to proceed.

I sent you an invite, you should be able to do that after accepting it.

Transfer done. I'm wondering if Plots.jl also wanted NumericIO.jl for generating SI/ENG/SCI notation since it is direct dependency of InspectDR. I use it to make labels a bit more readable, and I could not figure out how get the desired effect using Showoff.jl.

The API could probably be improved, but I didn't invest much time in designing something better. Last big change was to leverage Ryu algorithm after Grisu was deprecated in Julia.

...Not sure if accessing that software layer is considered good practice - but Ryu implementation is much better than what I coudl have done.

sure

Ok. Transfered NumericIO as well.
