Documentation

There are many examples; run python -m pyqtgraph.examples for a menu.

Some (incomplete) documentation exists at this time.

  • Easiest place to get documentation is at http://www.pyqtgraph.org/documentation
  • If you acquired this code as a .tar.gz file from the website, then you can also look in doc/html.
  • If you acquired this code via GitHub, then you can build the documentation using sphinx. From the documentation directory, run: $ make html

Please feel free to pester Luke or post to the forum if you need a specific section of documentation to be expanded.
