fastgif
Python package for creating a gif utilizing multiprocessing to speed up the process. The individual plots are saved in a temp directory and are afterwards cleaned. This takes into account keyboard interrupts as well.
Usage
import fastgif
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
def get_fig(idx):
x_space = np.linspace(0, 10, 30) + (idx / 20)
fig, ax = plt.subplots(dpi=150)
ax.plot(x_space, np.sin(x_space))
ax.grid()
ax.set_ylim(-1.2, 1.2)
ax.set_xlabel('x')
ax.set_ylabel('sin(x)')
fig.suptitle(f'Sine wave gif')
return fig
fastgif.make_gif(get_fig, 100, 'images/sine.gif', show_progress=True, writer_kwargs={'duration': 0.01})Creates the following gif:
