compas.geometry.Polyhedron

class compas.geometry.Polyhedron(vertices, faces)[source]

Bases: compas.geometry.shapes._shape.Shape

A polyhedron is defined by its vertices and faces.

Parameters

• vertices (list of compas.geometry.Point or list of [x, y, z]) – The point locations of the vertices of the polyhedron.

• faces (list of list of int) – The faces as a list of index lists.

Methods

copy([cls])	Make an independent copy of the data object.
from_data(data)	Construct a polyhedron from its data representation.
from_halfspaces(halfspaces, interior_point)	Construct a polyhedron from its half-spaces and one interior point.
from_json(filepath)	Construct an object from serialized data contained in a JSON file.
from_jsonstring(string)	Construct an object from serialized data contained in a JSON string.
from_planes(planes)	Construct a polyhedron from intersecting planes.
from_platonicsolid(f)	Construct a polyhedron from one of the platonic solids.
to_data()	Convert an object to its native data representation.
to_json(filepath[, pretty])	Serialize the data representation of an object to a JSON file.
to_jsonstring([pretty])	Serialize the data representation of an object to a JSON string.
to_vertices_and_faces()	Returns a list of vertices and faces.
transform(transformation)	Transform the polyhedron.
transformed(transformation)	Returns a transformed copy of this primitive.
validate_data()	Validate the object’s data against its data schema (self.DATASCHEMA).
validate_json()	Validate the object’s data against its json schema (self.JSONSCHEMA).

Attributes
