I use django and matplotlib quite a bit at my work. I can probably help
you. It is pretty easy to set up with a few basics.
I am actually thinking of contributing to the documentation on this.
Unfortunately, my code is at work, so I can give the best concrete
examples right now. However, basically, I import StringIO and output the
the results from from matplotlib to StringIO. I then convert the
StringIO to a base64 string, and then pass this string to my template. I
can create dynamic images this way.
Sorry I am so vague, but if you email me back, I promise to follow up.

Hi,
I am very new to python, so sorry if the question is basic.
I am also very new to Django. I followed the instructions on
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial01/ through
tutorial 4 to set up a sample webpage and play around with it.
I would like to generate plots via matplotlib and display the png
files on the webpage. However, I am not sure where to start. I looked
at the cookbook here:
http://wiki.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Django
but I was not sure which urls.py the recommended change needs to be
made to and where charts.py should go.
Does anyone know how to embed an image in a webpage. Is there a step
by step tutorial I could follow. I found some tutorials but they were
dated and do not work with the latest versions. I am using for python
2.7.5, matplotlib u'1.4.x' and django 1.6.2.
Thanks,
Aarthi
