Background

This package provides an opinionated API that tries to mimic (up to a point) that of OpenSCAD. Currently, this package uses the CSG.js library to implement most functionality.

This package was part of OpenJSCAD.ORG but is now an 'independent' module in the JSCAD organization. Hopefully, this makes usage and development easier.

It gives you ONE variant of syntaxic sugar/ flavor to do solid modeling.

It is using semantic versioning to signal minor and breaking changes.

Installation

npm install @jscad/scad-api

Usage

This package is included by default in OpenJSCAD.org but you can also use it 'standalone'.

const scadApi = require('@jscad/scad-api')

const {cube, sphere} = scadApi.primitives3d
const {union} = scadApi.booleanOps

const base = cube({size: 1, center: true})
const top = sphere({r: 10, fn: 100, type: 'geodesic'})

const result = union(base, top)

API

The API documentation (incomplete) can be found here For more information, see the OpenJsCad User Guide.

For questions about the API, please contact the User Group

NOTE: at this time combined union() of 2d & 3d shapes is not officially supported but still possible via union({extrude2d: true}, op1, op2) this might change in the future
