Add PyGMT to pyviz.org

[seisman]

Originally proposed by @chhei-s in the forum post:

Just piggy-backing on this thread - colleagues mentioned https://pyviz.org/tools.html as nice overview page for Python-related plotting modules/libraries. I haven’t seen PyGMT on that list yet - maybe worthwhile adding?

The header text says

This page lists OSS libraries for visualizing data in Python. If you see any missing Python tools, please open a PR for tools.yml. Tools are sorted in each category according to their total downloads (pypi + conda) per month when added to the list

Cheers,
Christian

It sounds a good idea. What do you think @GenericMappingTools/pygmt-maintainers?

I agree that this is a good idea, and it is worthwhile adding PyGMT, maybe under the "geospatial" category (even users can also create histograms, time charts, and "normal" [Cartesian] plots).

maybe under the "geospatial" category

Sounds good. @yvonnefroehlich Would you like to submit a PR to pyviz？

Yes, I can do this 🙂.
@GenericMappingTools/pygmt-maintainers What do we want to state in the builtons field? There no python plotting / visualization packages PyGMT builds on, but maybe we should add GMT there?

    - repo: GenericMappingTools/pygmt
      site: https://www.pygmt.org
      conda_channel: conda-forge
      badges: pypi, conda, codecov
      builtons: [gmt]

Sounds good to me.

To add "gmt" to builtons, you also need to update this file https://github.com/pyviz/pyviz.org/blob/master/tools/builtons.yml.

So, I submitted a PR at pyviz/pyviz.org#167.

[seisman]

PR pyviz/pyviz.org#167 has been merged. Closing.

Thanks all!

Thanks all!

Thanks @chhei for mention this overview page on the GMT Forum!

Thanks @seisman for pointing this out (would be good to save all files with changes before pushing back to GitHub 🙈...)!
