SuperSCAD is an advanced application/library for generating 2D and 3D models in OpenSCAD in Python. SuperSCAD is based, among others, on the factory pattern and delivers to you as 2D and 3D modeler the superpowers of Python.
The full documentation is available at https://superscad.readthedocs.io.
We advise to create a Python virtual environment in a project folder:
cd awsesome-project
python -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip install super-scadUsing your favorite editor, copy-paste the code from the demo in the next section and save the file under
openscad-logo.py.
vi openscad-logo.py Run python and open the generated openscad-logo.scad in openscad.
python openscad-logo.py
openscad openscad-logo.scadCongratulations, you just finished your first SuperSCAD project.
Below is an example of SuperSCAD utilizing the factory pattern.
from super_scad.boolean.Difference import Difference
from super_scad.d3.Cylinder import Cylinder
from super_scad.d3.Sphere import Sphere
from super_scad.other.Modify import Modify
from super_scad.scad.Context import Context
from super_scad.scad.Scad import Scad
from super_scad.scad.ScadWidget import ScadWidget
from super_scad.scad.Unit import Unit
from super_scad.transformation.Rotate3D import Rotate3D
class Logo(ScadWidget):
"""
SuperSCAD widget for generating OpenSCAD logo.

def build(self, context: Context):

size: float = 50.0
hole: float = size / 2.0
height: float = 1.25 * size
cylinder = Cylinder(height=height, diameter=hole, center=True, fn4n=True)
sphere = Sphere(diameter=size, fn4n=True)
return Difference(children=[sphere,
cylinder,
Modify(highlight=True, child=Rotate3D(angle_x=90.0, child=cylinder)),
Rotate3D(angle_y=90.0, child=cylinder)])
if __name__ == '__main__':
scad = Scad(context=Context(fn=360))
logo = Logo()
scad.run_super_scad(logo, 'logo.scad')The example generates the logo of OpenSCAD.
