generate simple 3D models in Wavefront .obj file format

simple wavefront file writer

about

This is a very simple writer for the Wavefront .obj file format describing 3D models.

The project homepage is at https://github.com/mmitch/wavefront-simple

example

This code

		// generate a cube at (0, 0, 0) with edge length 1
		Cube cube = new Cube(Coordinate.ORIGIN, 1);
		// write object to file
		cube.writeTo(new FileOutputStream("/tmp/cube.obj"));

creates an .obj file that looks like this:

V 0 0 0
V 0 0 1
V 0 1 0
V 0 1 1
V 1 0 0
V 1 0 1
V 1 1 0
V 1 1 1
f 1 3 4 2
f 1 3 7 5
f 1 5 6 2
f 2 4 8 6
f 3 7 8 4
f 5 7 8 6

usage

This is a library, no standalone program (although test executables are available in the de.cgarbs.wavefront.test.app package).

To include wavefront-simple in your project, add this to your build.gradle:

repositories {
    repositories {
        maven {
			name "cgarbs.de repo"
			url "https://www.cgarbs.de/maven2"
		}
	}
}

dependencies {
	compile 'de.cgarbs:wavefront-simple:0.6.0'
}

Note: You should propably update the version number (0.6.0 in the example above) to the most current version (see the HISTORY.md file).

The same coordinates should work for Maven projects, too.

build

Just run gradle, the project will configure, compile and then run the checks.

dependencies

• Java 8
• Gradle
• further dependencies are fetched automatically, see build.gradle

further plans

• centralize tests from Container subclasses into ContainerTest
• add rotation operation(?)
• add colors/textures(?)
