farm of nodejs servers
I would like to be able to run the back-end CSG calculations on a farm of nodejs servers, and export the polygons to the client in some way.
This would allow massive generative modelling opportunities.
i am a building architect working with generative modelling and see this tool as perfect for doing that. Sick of Rhino and Grasshopper closed source.
Just want to add. The solid modelling graph can be farmed across many processes. Since its a graph it should be easy to do this and pipe the result back up into the parent.
:+1: Sorry if I have not yet commented on this Ged, I am very short on time:) This is really a neat idea, that I did not envision at all (wanting to concentrate on pure client side at first). I can see the potential in this however, so I'll explore the possibilities of server side processing , as well as how a CSG tree could be programatically split up to paralelize its processing.
Given my lack of experience with node etc, feel free to give it a shot aswell :)
Hey mark
Glad you like it too. I am busy with building a laser CNC that I will interface with nodejs and openjscad.
But if I get time will have a go

Hey Gerard ! I am curious: what are you doing with openjscad + cnc? Slicing via csg ? Providing a simple web interface ?
I am an architect.
So I need a web cad system to generate designs. Then I need to output the parts to CNC laser cutter and stereo lithographic printer.
Using nodejs allows me to automate it all On 06/11/2012 9:59 AM, "Mark Moissette" [email protected] wrote:

Yes i need to do slicing and project the slice to a Svg path, I also nd the parts of the SVG Path to knwo the 3d object they were projected from.
This allows the 2D path to "know" what each line maps to as a 3d object
