rpy2-complex-heatmap-grammar
Python heatmap interface using intuitive grammar of graphics, implemented as an rpy2 wrapper around ComplexHeatmap package.
Introduction
What this package is:
- an exploration in search of the dream API for complex heatmap creation
- trying to get the best of Python, ggplot2 (/plotnine) and ComplexHeatmap
- oriented towards data exploration in Jupyter notebooks with IPython (-compatible) kernel
- pushing boundaries for Python-R interoperability via rpy2
What this package is NOT:
- likely not suitable for beginners (if you can get through installation/used rpy2 before you are not a beginner)
- not a drop-in substitute for ComplexHeatmap for Python
- not ready for production use (API is subject to change)
- not affiliated with rpy2 or ComplexHeatmap
