Python 3 implmentation and documentation

Open saltynexus opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I installed meshmagick the other day by issuing the following command

conda install -c frongere meshmagick

I'm able to run meshmagick from the terminal command line (e.g. meshmagick my_mesh.stl --show) and import in python 3.7 (e.g. import meshmagick) without any trouble, however I'm not sure how to work with meshmagick in python. Right now I execute things like

os.system('meshmagick my_mesh.stl --show')

and it works as intended, but it's obviously not running explicitly in python. When I execute meshmagick.__version__ it returns '1.0.5' which from the README should be something like '2.0'?

I'm confused on what versions are available and where. Is the installation method above suppose to install the latest version (just installed the other day)? Is any documentation on how to use meshmagic explicitly in python (not via terminal command line)?
