You use Python Handout as a library inside a normal Python program:
- Install via
pip3 install -U handout. - Run your script via
python3 script.py. (You can start withexamples/start.pyfrom the repository.) - Open
output/index.htmlin your browser to view the result. - Iterate and refresh your browser.
Create the handout via doc = handout.Handout(outdir) to access these features:
| Feature | Example |
|---|---|
| Add Markdown text as triple-quote comments. | """Markdown text""" |
Add text via print() syntax. |
doc.add_text('text:', variable) |
| Add image from array or url. | doc.add_image(image, 'png', width=1) |
| Add video from array or url. | doc.add_video(video, 'gif', fps=30, width=1) |
| Add matplotlib figure. | doc.add_figure(fig, width=1) |
| Add custom HTML. | doc.add_html(string) |
Insert added items and save to <outdir>/index.html. |
doc.show() |
