USAGE
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
To get started with pyAssimp, examine the `sample.py` script in `scripts/`,
|
||||
which illustrates the basic usage. All Assimp data structures are wrapped using
|
||||
ctypes. All the data+length fields in Assimp's data structures (such as
|
||||
`aiMesh::mNumVertices`, `aiMesh::mVertices`) are replaced by simple python
|
||||
lists, so you can call len() on them to get their respective size and access
|
||||
members using [].
|
||||
### Complete example: 3D viewer
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to load a file named 'hello.3ds' and print the first
|
||||
`pyassimp` comes with a simple 3D viewer that shows how to load and display a 3D
|
||||
model using a shader-based OpenGL pipeline.

|

|
||||
To use it, from within `/port/PyAssimp`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ cd scripts
|
||||
$ python ./3D-viewer <path to your model>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can use this code as starting point in your applications.

substituted by assertions ...):
