salome-to-python 0.1.0

Convert Salomé-Meca MED meshes and Code_Aster .comm files into NumPy-ready Python data.

SalomeToPython

CLI that converts a Salomé-Meca MED mesh plus its matching Code_Aster .comm file into NumPy-friendly Python arrays (node, elem, mater, pdof, nodf, etc.).

Installation

python -m pip install --user --break-system-packages .

This installs the console script SalomeToPython. (In constrained environments you can also run it via python main.py ... without installing.)

Usage

SalomeToPython [-m] [-b] [-o output.py] path/to/case.med path/to/case.comm

• -m, --mater — include the material matrix parsed from DEFI_MATERIAU (AFFE_MATERIAU must map groups to materials).
• -b, --boundary — include prescribed DOFs (pdof) and nodal loads (nodf) derived from DDL_IMPO / FORCE_FACE.
• -o, --output — optional destination file (defaults to <case_folder>.py).

Without -m or -b, the generator writes only node, elem, eltp, and bc_method, skipping the more expensive parsing steps automatically.

Development

Install deps once (if you are not using the packaged CLI):

python -m pip install --break-system-packages meshio h5py

Then run the tool directly:

python main.py -m -b Input/DoubleCubeCase.med Input/DoubleCubeCase.comm
