RWSAT - ACIS Extensions for NURBS-Python (geomdl)

This repository contains the rwsat project and it contains 2 modules

• sat2json for extracting spline geometries and trim curves from ACIS .SAT files
• satgen for generating sample geometries to test sat2json

The rwsat project is based on the work of Dr. Adarsh Krishnamurthy with various improvements and new features.

Requirements

1. CMake
2. 3D ACIS Modeler

Compiling RWSAT

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/orbingol/rwsat.git
2. Enter the directory: cd rwsat
3. Update submodules: git submodule update --init
4. Use CMake to generate make files
5. Use make install to compile and install into the build directory

Using RWSAT

sat2json

The simplest way to use sat2json is as follows:

$ sat2json MODEL.sat licence_file=license.dat

This command will convert MODEL.sat into a JSON file which is directly readable by geomdl via exchange.import_json API call.

The license.dat contains your unlock_key which can be found inside your license source file at the following location:

Run sat2json without any command-line arguments for more details on using the application.

satgen

The simplest way to use satgen is as follows:

$ satgen SAMPLE.sat licence_file=license.dat

The arguments are very similar to sat2json command. Please note that the SAMPLE.sat file is the output of the satgen command.
