I am working on the documentation of an unregistered package ([GitHub - NumSoftware/Amaru.jl at gh-pages](https://github.com/NumSoftware/Amaru.jl/tree/gh-pages)).
I have several examples in the markdown that generate figures using PyPlot. Then I deploy using Actions.
On the Github page, the text content is just fine but there are no figures.
I tried saving the figures in svg and png formats but no figure files appear in the gh-pages branch after deploying.
Is it something related to PyPlot?
I have no idea where the Github Actions log file is placed.
Any help is appreciated.

I think you are running into this: [Displaying images via raw html is broken for hosted but not local docs · Issue #921 · JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl/issues/921)
Couldn’t you let the images be rendered directly by the at-example block (i.e. having the plot object be the last thing in the at-example block)?

@mortenpi, thanks for your comment.
The figures are generated locally as well as other files with no problems.
All files appear in the gh-pages branch except the figures.
I’ll try to render the images at the end of the @example blocks.
I started to suspect that PyPlot dependencies may not be fulfilled in the remote host.

I tried that, It did not work.
Checking the [Luxor.jl](https://github.com/JuliaGraphics/Luxor.jl/tree/gh-pages) and [ControlSystems.jl](https://github.com/JuliaControl/ControlSystems.jl/tree/gh-pages/dev) packages, they use different approaches to get the figures in the gh-pages branch and rendered in the final HTML. Luxor.jl uploads the figures directly to the assets/figures folder and ControlSystem runs all examples as doctests and apparently, the figures go to the gh-pages branch.
I am wondering why @example does not save figure files.

Sorry, I think my initial guess was wrong. I think you simply [do not have `matplotlib` available on CI](https://github.com/NumSoftware/Amaru.jl/runs/3013709316#step:5:10), and so it’s failing to generate the PNGs?
And [#921](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl/issues/921) would not affect you I think – we resolve those paths if I remember correctly (it’s only an issue if you use at-raw blocks).

Thanks a lot for pointing this. I Fixed CI.yml to include Python dependencies. Now, the figures are [rendered](https://numsoftware.github.io/Amaru.jl/dev/tutorial/tutorial/) alright.
