Standardize plotting colors with flexibility to change

[beckynevin]

This might include other **kwargs

[bnord]

reminder: use color-blindness-friendly palettes.

[bnord]

It might be worth starting with JasonPoh's color and linestyle choices.

[voetberg]

Right now theses are the defaults as far as colors and linestyles go.

        "axis_spines": False, 
        "tight_layout": True,
        "default_colorway": "viridis", 
        "plot_style": "fast", 
        "parameter_labels" : ['$m$','$b$'], 
        "parameter_colors": ['#9C92A3','#0F5257'], 
        "line_style_cycle": ["-", "-."],
        "figure_size": [6, 6]

Which I believe were taken from JasonPoh's defaults, and I know viridis is supposed to be friendly.

[bnord]

@voetberg are these set in the main input config yaml file?

[voetberg]

@bnord - sure are. There are a set of defaults (utils/defaults.py) but otherwise they can set per plot or per-run in the config.

[bnord]

sorry, I'm silly. I couldn't find the config file.

[bnord]

where is it?

[voetberg]

There's no general config file - it's always supplied by the user when running. Defaults has the same fields though. Closest to a config that exists at a moment is generated on the fly during testing here:

DeepDiagnostics/tests/conftest.py

Line 60 in 2a9817f

def config_factory():

Which is used here:

DeepDiagnostics/src/client/client.py

Line 62 in 2a9817f

input_yaml = {

Descriptions and documentation for each one of those fields is still in progress until there's a defined list of plots and metrics

[bnord]

I was thinking that we'd do a config file input so that users didn't have to edit code AND so that they weren't relegated to long CLI strings.

[voetberg]

Sorry I think I'm explaining this poorly. They can use a config file (using the --config flag), and they don't need to edit code. There just isn't a supplied config template yet because not all the metrics/plots we want to use are in place. Once that's completely done, we can brainstorm what fields we want them to modify and what plots/metrics to show off in the template.

[bnord]

oh, sorry. I get it. thanks.
