2.3. METplotpy Upgrade Instructions

This section summarizes and highlights important changes to METplotpy since version 3.1.0, including:

Note

Plots that originally utilized the Python Plotly plotting package are now using Matplotlib. As a result, all plots in this repository utilize Matplotlib. This removes the dependency on chrome by the kaleido module in Plotly. The kaleido/chrome dependency required run-time downloading of chrome and also broke existing functionality.

The version numbering for METplotpy has been updated to 13.0.0 to provide consistency and clarity with all METplus components. View the requirements.txt/nco_requirements.txt file at the top level of the repository for version numbers for the corresponding third-party packages.
