Hello Lin,
just a short question, i tried the code sample within my projekt but i
couldnt get it to work.
[image: image.png]
can see what the problem could be?
PikoGK Library available within the project?
best regards Torsten

Here's an example:
try{
using (PicoGK.Library oLibrary = new(0.1f))
{
PicoGK.Voxels vox = new(PicoGK.Utils.mshCreateCube());
vox.mshAsMesh().SaveToStlFile(Path.Combine(PicoGK.Utils.strDocumentsFolder(), "PicoGK_XS.stl"));
}
using (PicoGK.Library oLibrary = new(0.2f))
{
PicoGK.Voxels vox = new(PicoGK.Utils.mshCreateCube());
vox.mshAsMesh().SaveToStlFile(Path.Combine(PicoGK.Utils.strDocumentsFolder(), "PicoGK_XS2.stl"));
}
using (PicoGK.Library oLibrary = new(0.3f))
{
PicoGK.Voxels vox = new(PicoGK.Utils.mshCreateCube());
vox.mshAsMesh().SaveToStlFile(Path.Combine(PicoGK.Utils.strDocumentsFolder(), "PicoGK_XS3.stl"));
}}
catch (Exception e){
Console.Write(e.ToString());}
This showcases how to run the PicoGK library with several different voxel
sizes and do something useful in between. Note the using syntax, which
ensures proper cleanup, after you are done with your task.
This greatly simplifies running parameter sweeps, especially with
different voxel sizes, etc.
It requires PicoGK 1.6.
Best,
Lin

You need to install the 1.6 runtime. The image isn't showing up for me, so I can't see the issue. https://github.com/leap71/PicoGK/releases/tag/PicoGK-v1.6.0 Best, |

Hi Lin, I am attempting to run PicoGK headless on a linux environment (I used Corrie's instructions to install it). I have succeeded in running PicoGK with the viewer, but when I try the code that is provided above so I can run it in headless mode I get the following two errors: Program.cs(3,38): error CS1729: 'Library" does not contain a constructor that takes 1 arguments I am new to C# so I'm still learning, but if you or anyone has info that could help me resolve this issue, please let me know. Thank you! |

Thank you for this explanation! Based on this comment and a little tweaking ( not as much as you might think!) I got picoGK to run on my phone 🤣 |

That's awesome! Are you using a terminal emulator to do that? |

Exactly - termux with proot-distro for Ubuntu so I can get dotnet running, and a x-11 server so I can see the viewer. |

Thank you! I'm gonna try that as my hope is to create an STL file with PicoGK and then use FluidX3D (which works on Termux) to run a Lattice-Boltzmann simulation on it. |

I just looked at fluidx3d, looks very interesting! I wonder if there's an opportunity in the future to get a direct voxel import. |

I wanted to share this if anyone else is trying to run PicoGK in headless mode. I was able to create a way to run PicoGK headless on Google Colab. I put it here in a repo: https://github.com/michaelp91-dev/PicoGK-Colab I hope I'm not overstepping boundaries. But I wanted to share this if other people were wanting to do something this root. Obviously, with this, it gives you access to creating a STL file and then using within python, which is exactly what I plan to do with it. I need to run physics based simulations on what I design, and the physics engine I use can take in an STL file. I hope this is of use to others out there! |
