trimesh.exchange.misc

Functions:

load_dict(data, **kwargs)	Load multiple input types into kwargs for a Trimesh constructor.
load_meshio(file_obj[, file_type])	Load a meshio-supported file into the kwargs for a Trimesh constructor.
load_msgpack(blob, **kwargs)	Load a dict packed with msgpack into kwargs for a Trimesh constructor

trimesh.exchange.misc.load_dict(data, **kwargs)

Load multiple input types into kwargs for a Trimesh constructor. Tries to extract keys: ‘faces’ ‘vertices’ ‘face_normals’ ‘vertex_normals’

Parameters

• data (accepts multiple forms) –

  -dict: has keys for vertices and faces as (n,3) numpy arrays -dict: has keys for vertices/faces (n,3) arrays encoded as dicts/base64

  with trimesh.util.array_to_encoded/trimesh.util.encoded_to_array

  -str: json blob as dict with either straight array or base64 values -file object: json blob of dict

• file_type (not used) –

Returns

loaded – -vertices: (n,3) float -faces: (n,3) int -face_normals: (n,3) float (optional)

Return type

dict with keys

trimesh.exchange.misc.load_meshio(file_obj, file_type=None, **kwargs)

Load a meshio-supported file into the kwargs for a Trimesh constructor.

Parameters

• file_obj (file object) – Contains a meshio file

• file_type (str) – File extension, aka ‘vtk’

Returns

loaded – kwargs for Trimesh constructor

Return type

dict

trimesh.exchange.misc.load_msgpack(blob, **kwargs)

Load a dict packed with msgpack into kwargs for a Trimesh constructor

Parameters

blob (bytes) – msgpack packed dict containing keys ‘vertices’ and ‘faces’

Returns

loaded – Keyword args for Trimesh constructor, aka mesh=trimesh.Trimesh(**loaded)

Return type

dict
