I like the idea of having this as a user option.
There are a bunch of conda-installable packages that have lot of good colormaps. Maybe we should consider adding one or more of those as (optional) dependencies? The poorly named colormaps
(https://pratiman-91.github.io/colormaps/) has a lot. Palettable (https://jiffyclub.github.io/palettable/) also has a lot (but not the old NCL ones).
New feature type
New plot and/or plot enhancement
What is this new feature?
Based on the nice work from @brianpm, having access to old NCL colormap
.rgb
files and code to generate matplotlib colomap objects, it seems very helpful to the user if they could supply a colormap file to use in the ADF.In addition to
.rgb
files,.csv
files can also be an option as matplotlib can build a colormap from those files as well.These options will live in the
adf_variable_defaults.yaml
file under a new variable name likecolormap_file
.Assistance required?
No, I will make a PR when the feature is ready
