A script for plotting

README.md

Plotting from Julia with Rust - "Just don't!" version :D

1. Run julia plotter.jl in a REPL, changing data1 appropriately
2. Modify your main.rs to dump the interesting files

Otherwise, you can probably setup a loop to redo this every 5 seconds - Makie is fast enough that just parsing and displaying the data should feel pretty fast.

main.rs

// You dump your interesting numbers into a `data1` file
// I just used bogus data here

use std::io::Write;
use std::{f32::consts::PI, fs::File};

fn main() {
    let mut f = File::create("data1").unwrap();
    let data1 = (1..=100)
        .map(|i| (PI / (i as f32)).to_string())
        .collect::<Vec<String>>()
        .join("\n");
    let _ = writeln!(f, "{data1}");
}

plotter.jl

using BetterFileWatching

using GLMakie

watch_file("data1") do _
  xs = parse.(Float32, readlines("data1"))
  scatter(1:100, xs)
end
