Not able to plot graph: matplotlib is needed for plotting

问题


I am able to generate *.dat file:

vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ./mprof run --python test_sl.py 
vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ls *.dat
mprofile_20151001035123.dat

But when I am trying to plot graph then it is saying "matplotlib is needed for plotting"

vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ./mprof plot --output=plot.png 
matplotlib is needed for plotting.

Did I miss anything?

Function I am profiling is run() which is inside: file_to_be_profiled.py

#!/usr/bin/python

import time
import os, sys, commands
from memory_profiler import profile
from guppy import hpy

@profile
def run():
    d = {}
    l = []
    hp = hpy()
    before = hp.heap()

    d["k1"] = 'val1'
    d["k2"] = 10
    count = 0
    while (count < 9):
        l.append(count)
        print 'The count is:', count
        count = count + 1
    print "Good bye!"
    after = hp.heap()
    leftover = after - before
    print leftover

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(run())

And I am invoking run() from my test script: test_sl.py:

#!/usr/bin/python

import commands

# for the time being I am running my test to profile method: run() inside file_to_be_profiled.py
run_cmd = './file_to_be_profiled.py
commands.getstatusoutput(run_cmd)

I am running on ubuntu machine. But apt-get install did not worked for me. Then I did the install from source. But then also I am getting same error.

apt-get failed:

vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ sudo apt-get install -y python-matplotlib
[sudo] password for vikaskuk:
Reading package lists... Done

Package python-matplotlib is not available, but is referred to by another package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'python-matplotlib' has no installation candidate
vikask@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ./mprof plot --output=plot.png
matplotlib is needed for plotting.

Then I attempted pip install... which also did not go through:

vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ pip install matplotlib

Finally I tried installing from source which seems to be succeeded:

vikas@server:~/matplotlib$ cd matplotlib-master/

But when I try to plot the graph I hit the original issue:

vikas@server:~/matplotlib/matplotlib-master$ cd ../../memory_profiler-0.36
vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ./mprof plot --output=plot.png 
matplotlib is needed for plotting.

I was able to successfully do apt-get update(there was some firewall issue and then I successfully did: sudo apt-get install -y python-matplotlib.

But still I am getting some issue while running mprof:

vikas@server:~/memory_profiler-0.36$ ./mprof plot --output=plot.png
Using last profile data.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./mprof", line 494, in <module>

    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className, interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use)
_tkinter.TclError: no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable

Why do I need to set the display? I am working on ubuntu hosted machine.


回答1:


You need to install matplotlib, as instructed (this error in thrown by mprof when it can't find matplotlib).

You can do so using pip pip install matplotlib (you might need to prefix this with sudo) or your package manager:

  • sudo apt-get install -y python-matplotlib on Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives.
  • sudo yum install -y python-matplotlib on RHEL, CentOS and derivatives.



回答2:


It seems matplotlib: 3.0.1 does not go well with python 3.7 in conda environment. df.plot() command could not be executed properly showing "ImportError: matplotlib is required for plotting" but actually matplotlib is installed.

I tried to downgrade matplotlib to 3.0.0 then everything is fine.

conda install -n [your_conda_envionment] matplotlib==3.0.0




回答3:


I had the same problem. I used memory_profiler lib typing this commands (mprof run runner.py and mprof plot) and got a message "matplotlib is needed for plotting"

I tried to get rid of this problem following advice I found here but in the result I solved this problem completing these simple steps:

  1. delete files in /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/ connected with matplotlib (or you can uninstall matplotlib using the ordinary way)

  2. use sudo yum-builddep python-matplotlib to install connected packages (222 packages were installed, if you need apt-get, you need this command: sudo apt-get build-dep python-matplotlib)

  3. install matplotlib sudo yum reinstall python-matplotlib (or use install command, with apt-get: sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib)

I believe this will help.




回答4:


I had same problem on freshely installed Ubuntu 16.04. To solve it, I have installed SciPy like this: sudo pip install scipy

Also I had to install tkinter lib like this: sudo apt-get install python-tk

I guess somewhere in the past, matplotlib had scipy as dependency, but now it only has numpy, while mprof plot requires scipy.
