OS X Screencast to animated GIF

This gist shows how to create a GIF screencast using only free OS X tools: QuickTime, ffmpeg, and gifsicle.

To capture the video (filesize: 19MB), using the free "QuickTime Player" application:

	# create figure form matplotlib.pyplot
	fig = plt.figure()

	# make global min/max for the whole array,
	# so colour scale will be consistent between the frames
	data_min = np.nanmin(full_data_panel.values)
	data_max = np.nanmax(full_data_panel.values)

	# create iterator
	data_frames_iterator = full_data_panel.iteritems()

	full_data_dict = dict()

	for frame in fetch_batch():
	for layer in frame['entries']: # single batch can contain more than one timestamp
	layer_coords = dict()
	# convert lists of axes into dict
	for layer_coord in layer['indexAxes']:
	layer_coords[layer_coord[0]] = layer_coord[1]

	# latitude and longitude should be present in the axes output

	def fetch_batch(page=0):
	while True:
	res = API.datasets(DATASET_ID).area().get(
	apikey=APIKEY,
	polygon=POLYGON,
	count=PAGESIZE,
	var=VARIABLE,
	offset=PAGESIZE * page,
	grouping='location',
	)
