Bumps altair from 5.4.0 to 5.5.0.

Release notes

Sourced from altair's releases.

Version 5.5.0

Release 5.5.0

The Vega-Altair team is pleased to announce the release of version 5.5.0. This version introduces several exciting new features and enhancements including a revamped theme system, a new renderer optimized for screen readers, and numerous type system updates that improve auto-completion and make it easier to integrate Altair into larger typed programs.

This release adds Python 3.13 and removes Python 3.8 support. It also includes a variety of documentation improvements and a range of important bug fixes.

Thanks to our maintainers (@​binste, @​dangotbanned, @​joelostblom, @​mattijn, and @​jonmmease), returning contributors (@​MarcoGorelli, @​daylinmorgan, and @​dsmedia), and first time contributors (@​jpn--, @​davidgroves, and @​apoorvkh) for these improvements.

What's Changed

Deprecation

alt.themes

This release deprecates the alt.themes ThemeRegistry object and replaces it with an improved theme API in the new alt.theme module. See the updated Chart Themes documentation for more information.

[!NOTE] Usage of the legacy alt.themes registry will be supported until version 6, but will now display a warning on first use.

• Refactor alt.themes -> alt.theme by @​dangotbanned in #3618
• Adds @alt.theme.register decorator by @​dangotbanned in #3526
• Adds ThemeConfig (TypedDict) by @​dangotbanned in #3536

Example of registering a custom theme

import altair as alt
import pandas as pd
data = pd.DataFrame({'x': [5, 3, 6, 7, 2],
'y': ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E']})
@​alt.theme.register("my_little_theme", enable=True)
def custom_theme():
return alt.theme.ThemeConfig(
config={
"bar":{"color":"black"}
}
)
chart = alt.Chart(data).mark_bar().encode(
x='x',
y='y',
)
chart  # enable default using alt.theme.enable("default")
