pyLibMeshb

Python module for accessing mesh and solution files in Gamma Mesh Format (.mesh/.meshb/.sol/.solb). Implemented by compiling the vendored libMeshb source (libmeshb8.c / libmeshb8.h) directly and binding via Python ctypes.

Installation

pyLibMeshb ships as prebuilt wheels for Linux, macOS, and Windows (x86_64), attached to each GitHub Release. No C compiler is required to install — the compiled library is bundled inside the wheel.

Option 1: Install directly from a GitHub Release (recommended)

  1. Go to the Releases page and find the version you want.

  2. Under Assets, right-click the wheel matching your platform and copy the link:

    • pylibmeshb-<version>-*-linux_x86_64.whl for Linux
    • pylibmeshb-<version>-*-win_amd64.whl for Windows

  3. Install it directly from the URL:

    pip install https://github.com/vtpasquale/pyLibMeshb/releases/download/v0.1.0/pylibmeshb-0.1.0-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl

    Replace the URL with the actual asset link for your platform and Python version.

Option 2: Download, then install locally

If you'd rather download the file first (e.g. to inspect it, or install on an air-gapped machine):

# after downloading the .whl file to your machine
pip install ./pylibmeshb-0.1.0-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl

Option 3: Install from source

If no prebuilt wheel matches your platform or Python version, you can build from source. This requires a C compiler.

git clone https://github.com/vtpasquale/pyLibMeshb.git
cd pyLibMeshb
pip install .

Requirements

  • Python 3.12 or later
  • numpy (installed automatically as a dependency)
  • Supported platforms: Linux x86_64, Windows x86_64 (64-bit)

Verifying the install

import pyLibMeshb
print("pyLibMeshb installed successfully")

If you see an ImportError mentioning a missing compiled library (_libmeshb.so / _libmeshb.dll), double-check that you downloaded the wheel matching your operating system and Python version — mixing platforms (e.g. installing the Windows wheel on Linux) will fail at import time.
