get_size() and calculate_volume() methods return None about python-admesh HOT 8 CLOSED

You are not missing anything, those methods (in fact really admesh C functions), despite their names, don't return anything, they only calculate the value and save it in the internal stats struct. Due to #3 this remains unavailable for python-admesh.

Solution might be to extend python-admesh with methods that do not blindly copy admesh terrible API (I don't want to go that way) or fix #3 and look to stl.stats.volume.

@hroncok I see. May be I have to customize admesh to output data that can be converted to python dict or something.

from python-admesh.

Well, please try to avoid customizing admesh, when other solution is possible.

I might be able to create a custom method that would return as many stats as currently possible - in a dict.

In [1]: from admesh import Stl

In [2]: s = Stl('test/block.stl')

In [3]: s.calculate_volume()

In [4]: s.stats['volume']
Out[4]: 61.023746490478516

In [5]: s.stats['size']
Out[5]: {'x': 3.9370079040527344, 'y': 3.9370079040527344, 'z': 3.9370079040527344}

Expect a release soon.

0.98.3 released on pypi, tnaks for the report.

Just curious: What project do you want to use this in?

from python-admesh.

Thanks. This goes in online quotation for a 3D Printing Service. :)
