Merging multiple STEP files into one resulting file

Hello everybody,

last week we luckily discovered this library. After some testing of the library, we think this project is a great possibility to push the idea of a simplified usage of OpenCascade more forward.

Since our ecosystem is mainly based on NodeJs & TypeScript backend services, we think this library would fit greatly into our environment. Currently we use a self build C++ wrapper for OCC, which is then translated with SWIG into a C#-usable library for a .NET backend service - we would like to replace this service with a Nodejs based service.

Our two main use cases (or what we want to achieve is) for OpenCascade inside backend services are:

  • Converting STEP files into GLTF files via CLI / Code
  • Merging / loading multiple STEP files into one document with a model specific transformation matrix. The result then can be exported as a STEP file as well.

It would be great if the library could be extended since our knowledge about OCC is currently very limited - but we work on it.

Hello Maximilian,

thank you for the feature proposal! I will have a look at how this can be implemented and let you know, as soon as I found a solution...
