Install

Example Usage
```python3 from backstrip import backstrip from matplotlib import pyplot as plt import seaborn as sns
titanic = sns.load_dataset("titanic") ax = sns.boxplot(data=titanic, x="age", y="class", hue="alive", orient="h") backstrip(ax, hatch=["oo", "xx"], orient="h")
plt.show() ```

```python3 from backstrip import backplot from matplotlib import pyplot as plt import seaborn as sns
g = backplot( data=sns.load_dataset("titanic"), x="class", y="age", hue="alive", col="who", style="alone", # hatches by this column )
plt.show() ```

API
See function docstrings for full parameter and return value descriptions.
backstrip: direct, axes-level interface
```python3 def backstrip( ax: plt.Axes, alpha: float = 0.5, hue: typing.Optional[typing.Iterable[str]] = None, hatch: typing.Optional[typing.Iterable[str]] = None, hatch_color: typing.Union[str, typing.Iterable[str]] = "white", orient: typing.Literal["v", "h"] = "v", **kwargs, ) -> None: """Draws background strips behind boxplot patches on a matplotlib Axes object to enhance the visual identifiability of hue-keyed groups.
This function iterates over PathPatch objects (representing boxes) within a
matplotlib Axes, and draws semi-transparent rectangles (strips) in the
background.
These strips can be customized in color (`hue`), pattern (`hatch`), and
orientation (`orient`).
"""
```
backplot: tidy-data, figure-level interface
```python3 def backplot( data: pd.DataFrame, x: typing.Optional[str] = None, y: typing.Optional[str] = None, hue: typing.Optional[str] = None, style: typing.Optional[str] = None, col: typing.Optional[str] = None, row: typing.Optional[str] = None, order: typing.Optional[typing.Sequence[str]] = None, hueorder: typing.Optional[typing.Sequence[str]] = None, styleorder: typing.Optional[typing.Sequence[str]] = None, hatches: typing.Optional[typing.Sequence[str]] = None, orient: typing.Literal["v", "h"] = "v", palette: typing.Optional[typing.Union[str, typing.Sequence[str]]] = None, backstripkws: dict = frozendict(), legendwidthinches: float = 1.5, legendkws: dict = frozendict(), **kwargs: dict, ) -> sns.FacetGrid: """Create a composite plot that combines boxplots with backstrips, optionally hatched according to a categorical style variable.
Provides a tidy-data, seaborn-like interface for backstrip elements. Unlike
backstrip, this function uses the seaborn.catplot interface to create
boxplots (and then applies backstrips to the resulting axes).
Notes
-----
If boxplot strips contain more than one style column value, they will be
hatched with both (or all) corresponding hatch patterns.
