'''
Colorbar toolkit with two classes and a function:

    :class:`ColorbarBase`
        the base class with full colorbar drawing functionality.
        It can be used as-is to make a colorbar for a given colormap;
        a mappable object (e.g., image) is not needed.

    :class:`Colorbar`
        the derived class for use with images or contour plots.

    :func:`make_axes`
        a function for resizing an axes and adding a second axes
        suitable for a colorbar

The :meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar` method uses :func:`make_axes`
and :class:`Colorbar`; the :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.colorbar` function
is a thin wrapper over :meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar`.

    *extend*      [ 'neither' | 'both' | 'min' | 'max' ]
                  If not 'neither', make pointed end(s) for out-of-
                  range values.  These are set for a given colormap
                  using the colormap set_under and set_over methods.
    *spacing*     [ 'uniform' | 'proportional' ]
                  Uniform spacing gives each discrete color the same
                  space; proportional makes the space proportional to
                  the data interval.
    *ticks*       [ None | list of ticks | Locator object ]
                  If None, ticks are determined automatically from the
                  input.
    *format*      [ None | format string | Formatter object ]
                  If None, the
                  :class:`~matplotlib.ticker.ScalarFormatter` is used.
                  If a format string is given, e.g. '%.3f', that is
                  used. An alternative
                  :class:`~matplotlib.ticker.Formatter` object may be
                  given instead.
    *drawedges*   [ False | True ] If true, draw lines at color
                  boundaries.

    indexed colors (that is, when the mappable has norm=NoNorm()),
    or other unusual circumstances.

                   than the sequence of *boundaries*. For each region
                   delimited by adjacent entries in *boundaries*, the
                   color mapped to the corresponding value in values
                   will be used.

colorbar_doc = '''

Add a colorbar to a plot.

Function signatures for the :mod:`~matplotlib.pyplot` interface; all
but the first are also method signatures for the
:meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar` method::

  colorbar(**kwargs)
  colorbar(mappable, **kwargs)
  colorbar(mappable, cax=cax, **kwargs)
  colorbar(mappable, ax=ax, **kwargs)

arguments:

  *mappable*
    the :class:`~matplotlib.image.Image`,
    :class:`~matplotlib.contour.ContourSet`, etc. to
    which the colorbar applies; this argument is mandatory for the
    :meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar` method but optional for the
    :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.colorbar` function, which sets the
    default to the current image.

keyword arguments:

  *cax*
    None | axes object into which the colorbar will be drawn
  *ax*
    None | parent axes object from which space for a new
    colorbar axes will be stolen
  *use_gridspec*
    False | If *cax* is None, a new *cax* is created as an instance of
    Axes. If *ax* is an instance of Subplot and *use_gridspec* is True,
    *cax* is created as an instance of Subplot using the
    grid_spec module. 


Additional keyword arguments are of two kinds:

  axes properties:
%s
  colorbar properties:
%s

If *mappable* is a :class:`~matplotlib.contours.ContourSet`, its *extend*
kwarg is included automatically.

Note that the *shrink* kwarg provides a simple way to keep a vertical
colorbar, for example, from being taller than the axes of the mappable
to which the colorbar is attached; but it is a manual method requiring
some trial and error. If the colorbar is too tall (or a horizontal
colorbar is too wide) use a smaller value of *shrink*.

For more precise control, you can manually specify the positions of
the axes objects in which the mappable and the colorbar are drawn.  In
this case, do not use any of the axes properties kwargs.

returns:
    :class:`~matplotlib.colorbar.Colorbar` instance; see also its base class,
    :class:`~matplotlib.colorbar.ColorbarBase`.  Call the
    :meth:`~matplotlib.colorbar.ColorbarBase.set_label` method
    to label the colorbar.

''' % (make_axes_kw_doc, colormap_kw_doc)

docstring.interpd.update(colorbar_doc=colorbar_doc)


class ColorbarBase(cm.ScalarMappable):
    '''
    Draw a colorbar in an existing axes.

    This is a base class for the :class:`Colorbar` class, which is the
    basis for the :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.colorbar` function and the
    :meth:`~matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar` method, which are the
    usual ways of creating a colorbar.

    It is also useful by itself for showing a colormap.  If the *cmap*
    kwarg is given but *boundaries* and *values* are left as None,
    then the colormap will be displayed on a 0-1 scale. To show the
    under- and over-value colors, specify the *norm* as::

        colors.Normalize(clip=False)

    To show the colors versus index instead of on the 0-1 scale,
    use::

        norm=colors.NoNorm.

    Useful attributes:

        :attr:`ax`
            the Axes instance in which the colorbar is drawn

        :attr:`lines`
            a LineCollection if lines were drawn, otherwise None

        :attr:`dividers`
            a LineCollection if *drawedges* is True, otherwise None

    Useful public methods are :meth:`set_label` and :meth:`add_lines`.
