I/O for various mesh formats

Project description

meshio

CircleCI codecov Code style: black PyPi Version Debian CI DOI GitHub stars

There are various mesh formats available for representing unstructured meshes. meshio can read and write all of the following and smoothly converts between them:

Simply call

meshio-convert input.msh output.vtu

with any of the supported formats.

In Python, simply call

import meshio

mesh = meshio.read(filename)
# mesh.points, mesh.cells, ...

to read a mesh. To write, do

points = numpy.array([
    [0.0, 0.0, 0.0],
    [0.0, 1.0, 0.0],
    [0.0, 0.0, 1.0],
    ])
cells = {
    "triangle": numpy.array([
        [0, 1, 2]
        ])
    }
meshio.write_points_cells(
    "foo.vtk",
    points,
    cells,
    # Optionally provide extra data on points, cells, etc.
    # point_data=point_data,
    # cell_data=cell_data,
    # field_data=field_data
    )

or explicitly create a mesh object for writing

mesh = meshio.Mesh(points, cells)
meshio.write("foo.vtk", mesh)

For both input and output, you can optionally specify the exact file_format (in case you would like to enforce binary over ASCII VTK, for example).
