Usage

from BinPackerPro.BinPackerPro import BinPackerPro

# declare an object of class BinPackerPro
box1 = [{"BoxName":f"Box{i}","Length":20.0,"Height":20.0,"Width":20.0,"Weight":50.0} for i in range(24)]
box2 = [{"BoxName":f"Box{i}","Length":20.0,"Height":40.0,"Width":40.0,"Weight":100.0} for i in range(24,28)]
bin_packer_pro = BinPackerPro(
        pallet_length = 80.0, #float
        pallet_width = 40.0, #float
        pallet_height = 100.0, #float
        dimension_units = "inch", #str
        pallet_weight = 2000.0 , #float
        weight_units = "pound", #str
        pacakge_list = box1+box2 # list(dict)
)

# use pack function to run bin packer
bin_packer_pro.pack() # this function runs the bin packer algorith to find the least number of pallets to fit the given package list and also the box arrangement in each pallet

# use get_box_arrangement function to get the box arrangement in each pallet
box_arrangement = bin_packer_pro.get_box_arrangement() # this function gives box arrangement and rotation in each pallet
print(box_arrangement)
#Output
