Nim ImPlot binding

---

ImPlot is an immediate mode, GPU accelerated plotting library for Dear ImGui.

This project uses the modified generator that derived from the achievement of Nimgl/imgui.

Prerequisites

---

• Windows11 or later
  MSys2/MinGW basic commands (make, rm, cp, strip ...)

  pacman -S make mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-{gcc,glfw}
  

• Linux Debian13 Trixie (and Ubuntu families)

  sudo apt install make git gcc g++  
  sudo apt install lib{opengl-dev,gl1-mesa-dev,glfw3-dev,xcursor-dev,xinerama-dev,xi-dev} 
  

  • Install nim (If you'd like to install Nim compiler)

    curl https://nim-lang.org/choosenim/init.sh -sSf | sh
    

    You must now ensure that the Nimble bin dir is in your PATH.
    Place the following line in the ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc file.
    export PATH=/home/username/.nimble/bin:$PATH

Nimble install

---

nimble uninstall implot   # Remove old version if exists
nimble install implot

Running demo programs

---

git clone https://github.com/dinau/nim_implot
cd nim_implot
nimble test

Test source: examples/demo

Compiling application

---

It has to be used cpp backend at compilation for example,

pwd
nim_implot
cd examples/demo
nim cpp -r ImPlotDemo.nim 

Note: C backend is not supported.

Notice: Compilation options

---

If demo programs crash, please try to specify compilation option
--mm:refc instead of --mm:arc or --mm:orc,
especially if you use Nim-2.00, try to specify --mm:refc.
These are TODO at this moment.

Generating ImPlot bindings for development

---

pwd
nim_implot
nimble gen

Genarated file: src/implot.nim

My tools info

---

• Windows11
  • Nim Compiler Version 2.2.4
  • gcc.exe 15.2.0
• Debian 13
  • Nim Compiler Version 2.2.4
  • gcc 14.2.0

Example gallery written in Nim language

---

Now all demo (over 50) programs have been implemented in Nim language (2023/10),
(Orignal demo program is here implot_demo.cpp, (C++))
below images are part of them.
