Bases: object

A simple pyparsing-based parser for fontconfig patterns.

parse(self, pattern) [source]

Parse the given fontconfig pattern and return a dictionary of key/value pairs useful for initializing a font_manager.FontProperties object.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.family_escape(repl, string, count=0)

Return the string obtained by replacing the leftmost non-overlapping occurrences of pattern in string by the replacement repl.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.family_unescape(repl, string, count=0)

Return the string obtained by replacing the leftmost non-overlapping occurrences of pattern in string by the replacement repl.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.generate_fontconfig_pattern(d) [source]

Given a dictionary of key/value pairs, generates a fontconfig pattern string.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.parse_fontconfig_pattern(pattern)

Parse the given fontconfig pattern and return a dictionary of key/value pairs useful for initializing a font_manager.FontProperties object.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.value_escape(repl, string, count=0)

Return the string obtained by replacing the leftmost non-overlapping occurrences of pattern in string by the replacement repl.

matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern.value_unescape(repl, string, count=0)

Return the string obtained by replacing the leftmost non-overlapping occurrences of pattern in string by the replacement repl.
