How to bind data with plot function?

I think you want something like this, which is creating a overload of the plotting function for a specific type you create (here exemplified with UnicodePlots):

julia> using UnicodePlots
       struct Foo
           x::Vector{Float64}
           y::Vector{Float64}
       end
       Foo(x) = Foo(x,sin.(x))
       plot(f::Foo) = lineplot(f.x,f.y)
plot (generic function with 1 method)

julia> f = Foo(0:pi/64:2*pi)
Foo([0.0, 0.04908738521234052, 0.09817477042468103, 0.14726215563702155, 0.19634954084936207, 0.2454369260617026, 0.2945243112740431, 0.3436116964863836, 0.39269908169872414, 0.44178646691106466  …  5.841398840268521, 5.890486225480862, 5.939573610693203, 5.988660995905543, 6.037748381117884, 6.086835766330224, 6.135923151542564, 6.1850105367549055, 6.234097921967246, 6.283185307179586], [0.0, 0.049067674327418015, 0.0980171403295606, 0.14673047445536175, 0.19509032201612825, 0.24298017990326387, 0.29028467725446233, 0.33688985339222005, 0.3826834323650898, 0.4275550934302821  …  -0.42755509343028253, -0.3826834323650904, -0.33688985339222, -0.2902846772544625, -0.24298017990326418, -0.19509032201612872, -0.1467304744553624, -0.0980171403295605, -0.04906767432741809, -2.4492935982947064e-16])

You can also make the evaluation lazy, for example:


julia> struct Foo2{T}
           r::T
       end

julia> plot(f::Foo2) = lineplot(f.r,sin.(f.r))
plot (generic function with 1 method)

julia> plot(f2)
      ┌────────────────────────────────────────┐ 
    1 │⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡤⠊⠉⠉⠑⢤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀│ 
      │⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠞⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠳⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀│ 
...

then the structure only stores the step range, not the actual data.
