BasePrintOrganizer

class compas_slicer.print_organization.BasePrintOrganizer(slicer)[source]

Bases: object

Base class for organizing the printing process. This class is meant to be extended for the implementation of the various print organizers. Do not use this class directly in your python code. Instead use PlanarPrintOrganizer or InterpolationPrintOrganizer.

Attributes:

slicer (compas_slicer.slicers.PlanarSlicer) – An instance of the compas_slicer.slicers.PlanarSlicer.

Attributes

number_of_layers	Number of layers in the PrintOrganizer.
number_of_paths
number_of_printpoints	Total number of points in the PrintOrganizer.
total_length_of_paths	Returns the total length of all paths.
total_print_time	If the print speed is defined, it returns the total time of the print, else returns None

Methods

__init__(slicer)
create_printpoints()	To be implemented by the inheriting classes
get_printpoint_neighboring_items(layer_key, ...)	layer_key: str
get_printpoint_up_vector(path, k, normal)	Returns the printpoint up-vector so that it is orthogonal to the path direction and the normal
get_printpoints_attribute(attr_name)	Returns a list of printpoint attributes that have key=attr_name.
number_of_paths_on_layer(layer_index)	int: Number of paths within a Layer of the PrintOrganizer.
output_gcode(parameters)	Gets a gcode text file using the function that creates gcode :Parameters: parameters (dict with gcode parameters)
output_nested_printpoints_dict()	Creates a nested PrintPoints as a dictionary.
output_printpoints_dict()	Creates a flattened PrintPoints as a dictionary.
printout_info()	Prints out information from the PrintOrganizer
printpoints_indices_iterator()	Iterate over the printpoints of the print organizer.
printpoints_iterator()	Iterate over the printpoints of the print organizer.
remove_duplicate_points_in_path(layer_key, ...)	Remove subsequent points that are within a certain threshold.
