unable to get ax when calling barplot()

[nathaliehsieh]

Setup

I am reporting a problem with GSEApy version, Python version, and operating
system as follows:

3.8.6 | packaged by conda-forge | (default, Jan 25 2021, 23:21:18) 
[GCC 9.3.0]
CPython
Linux-4.15.0-169-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.10
0.14.0

Expected behaviour

get ax when calling barplot() without setting 'ofname' to visualize the enrichr results.

Actual behaviour

When I run ax = barplot(enr.res2d) , I got 'NoneType' object returned.

import gseapy as gp
from gseapy.plot import barplot

enr = gp.enrichr(gene_list=gene_list, # or "./tests/data/gene_list.txt",
                 gene_sets=['KEGG_2016','KEGG_2021_Human'],
                 organism='human', # don't forget to set organism to the one you desired! e.g. Yeast
                 outdir=None, # don't write to disk
                )
ax = barplot(enr.res2d,title='KEGG_2021_Human', figsize=(3, 5))
print(type(ax))

output

Steps to reproduce

Hi @nathaliehsieh,

Thanks for reporting the bug. The quickest way to get the ax it to delete line 879-880 of code in below:

The newest release fixed this issue.
