Input/Outputs
vtkIO module of geos-mesh package contains generic methods to read and write different format of VTK meshes.
geos.mesh.io.vtkIO module
- Input and Ouput methods for VTK meshes:
VTK, VTU, VTS, PVTU, PVTS readers
VTK, VTS, VTU writers
- class geos.mesh.io.vtkIO.VtkOutput(output: str, is_data_mode_binary: bool)[source]
Bases:
object- is_data_mode_binary
- output
- geos.mesh.io.vtkIO.read_mesh(vtk_input_file)[source]
Read vtk file and build either an unstructured grid or a structured grid from it.
- Parameters:
vtk_input_file (str) – The file name. Extension will be used to guess file format If first guess fails, other available readers will be tried.
- Raises:
ValueError – Invalid file path error
ValueError – No appropriate reader available for the file format
- Returns:
Mesh read
- Return type:
vtkPointSet
- geos.mesh.io.vtkIO.write_mesh(mesh, vtk_output, canOverwrite=False)[source]
Write mesh to disk.
Nothing is done if file already exists.
- Parameters:
mesh (vtkPointSet) – Grid to write
vtk_output (VtkOutput) – File path. File extension will be used to select VTK file format
canOverwrite (bool, optional) – Authorize overwriting the file. Defaults to False.
- Raises:
ValueError – Invalid VTK format.
- Returns:
0 if success
- Return type:
int
