As of Matplotlib 2.2, `numpy.datetime64` objects are handled the same way
as `datetime.datetime` objects.
-If you prefer the pandas converters and locators, you can register their
-converter with the `matplotlib.units` module::
-
- from pandas.tseries import converter as pdtc
- pdtc.register()
-
-If you only want to use the `pandas` converter for `numpy.datetime64` values ::
-
- from pandas.tseries import converter as pdtc
- import matplotlib.units as munits
- import numpy as np
-
- munits.registry[np.datetime64] = pdtc.DatetimeConverter()
+If you prefer the pandas converters and locators, you can register them. This
+is done automatically when calling a pandas plot function and may be
+unnecessary when using pandas instead of Matplotlib directly. ::
+ from pandas.plotting import register_matplotlib_converters
