openpyscad 0.0.2

Python library to generate OpenSCAD source code

OpenPySCAD
==========

Python library to generate OpenSCAD source code. This library provides intuitive interface when you handle 3D data.


Install
-------
You can install OpenPySCAD from PyPI.

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install openpyscad


3D Shape
--------

Cube
^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([10, 10, 10])


Generated code: openscad

.. code-block::

cube([10, 10, 10]);

Boolean Operation
-----------------

Union
^^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([20, 10, 10]) + Cube([10, 20, 10])

# You can also write like this
u = Union()
u.append(Cube[20, 10, 10])
u.append(Cube[10, 20, 10])

Generated code:

.. code-block:: openscad

union(){
cube([20, 10, 10])
cube([10, 20, 10])
};

Difference
^^^^^^^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([20, 10, 10]) - Cube([10, 20, 10])

# You can also write like this
i = Difference()
i.append(Cube[20, 10, 10])
i.append(Cube[10, 20, 10])

Generated code:

.. code-block:: openscad

difference(){
cube([20, 10, 10]);
cube([10, 20, 10]);
};


Intersection
^^^^^^^^^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([20, 10, 10]) & Cube([10, 20, 10])

# You can also write like this
i = Intersection()
i.append(Cube[20, 10, 10])
i.append(Cube[10, 20, 10])

Generated code:

.. code-block:: openscad

intersection(){
cube([20, 10, 10]);
cube([10, 20, 10]);
};


Transform
---------

Translate
^^^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([20, 10, 10]).translate([10, 10, 10])

# You can also write like this
r = Translate([10, 10, 10])
r.append(Cube[20, 10, 10])

Generated code:

.. code-block:: openscad

translate([10, 10, 10]){
cube([20, 10, 10]);
};



Rotate
^^^^^^

Source:

.. code-block:: python

Cube([20, 10, 10]).rotate([0, 0, 45])

# You can also write like this
r = Rotate([0, 0, 45])
r.append(Cube[20, 10, 10])

Generated code:

.. code-block:: openscad

rotate([0, 0, 45]){
cube([20, 10, 10]);
};
