python 条形图 stack,将图像应用于pyplot python条形图

So below is a snippet of my code, and it all works fine. Just curious instead of display bars with specific colors, can an image be applied to the bar, such as a countries flag etc. (please ignore my inconsistent order of param passing)

thanks

l_images=["australia.png","turkey.png"] # this is desired

l_colors=["pink","blue"]

if (l_bar_dir=="vertical"):

plt.bar(xs2,ys,tick_label=xs,color=l_colors,bottom=bottoms,width=bar_width,align='center') # set plot to be a bar graph

else:

plt.barh(bottom=xs2,width=ys,tick_label=xs,align='center',color=l_colors) # set plot to be a bar graph

AFAIK there's no built-in way to do this, although matplotlib does allow hatches in bar plots. See for example, hatch_demo.

But it's not terribly difficult to put together several calls to plt.imshow in the form of a bar plot. Here is a rather crude function that could be used to make basic bar plots using images, using your idea of flags as the images.

import numpy as np

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

from scipy.misc import imread

def image_plot(heights, images, spacing=0):

# Iterate through images and data, autoscaling the width to

# the aspect ratio of the image

for i, (height, img) in enumerate(zip(heights, images)):

AR = img.shape[1] / img.shape[0]

width = height * AR

left = width*i + spacing*i

right = left + width

plt.imshow(img, extent=[left, right, 0, height])

# Set x,y limits on plot window

plt.xlim(0, right)

plt.ylim(0, max(heights)*1.1)

# Read in flag images

usa_flag = imread('american_flag.png')

aussie_flag = imread('australian_flag.png').swapaxes(0, 1)

turkish_flag = imread('turkish_flag.png').swapaxes(0, 1)

# Make up some data about each country

usa_data = 33

aussie_data = 36

turkish_data = 27

data = [usa_data, aussie_data, turkish_data]

flags = [usa_flag, aussie_flag, turkish_flag]

image_plot(data, flags, spacing=2)

Without doing anything fancy to the x and y axes, returns this plot.
