If you don't need interactive plots, you might consider doing it the
old-fashioned way: saving the plots as png files in batch mode
and displaying with firefox.
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('Agg') #non-interacive back-end
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
....
plt.savefig('/home/me/public_html/plots/thefile.png',dpi=100)
We've automated this so the python script makes the plots,
builds an image gallery with thumbnails and
then copies the plots off our cluster (which doesn't mount
the web server directory) and onto the web server
using rsync. For example
