Graph images in Sage Documentation

[Albert Yao]

Hi all,

Just wondering whether it's possible to show images of graph outputs in sage documentation. If so, how can I do it?

Many thanks,

Albert

Yes, it is possible. Here are two examples depending on what kind of
graph you're talking about.

Graph theory graph:
https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/graphs/sage/graphs/graph_plot.html
and source code:
https://github.com/sagemath/sage/blob/develop/src/sage/graphs/graph_plot.py

Plot of a function graph:
https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/plotting/sage/plot/plot.html
and source code:
https://github.com/sagemath/sage/blob/develop/src/sage/plot/plot.py

tl;dr

Add sphinx PLOT pieces, like
(note that the code inside them must be Python code, not Sage code)

------------------------

.. PLOT::

sphinx_plot(graphs.WheelGraph(15))
