# OpenSCAD Kernel for Jupyter

I was missing a Jupyter Kernel for [OpenSCAD](https://www.openscad.org/). So I took up the challenge and here is the result.  

Any regular text in a cell is added to the overall OpenSCAD code buffer. This allows you to build up an OpenSCAD model in multiple steps using Jupyter cells and document the design along the way.

## Preconditions
- Jupyter or Jupyterlab should have been installed
- Please make sure that OpenSCAD has been installed on your system (e.g. with apt install openscad) and that it can be called on the command line:

```
openscad -v
```
diplays the version. E.g. 2019.12.20

## Installation

```
pip install jupyter-openscad-kernel
```

We try to install the kernel specification automatically. If the kernel does not appear you can try to execute the following command
```
python -m iopenscad setup
```

## Installation from source

```
git clone https://github.com/pschatzmann/jupyter-openscad-kernel.git
cd openscad-kernel
pip install .
```

## Optional Steps
If you want to be able to display stl files you need to install a mime renderer for Jupyter. E.g
```
jupyter labextension install jupyterlab-viewer-3d
```
If you want to have syntax highlighting for OpenSCAD:
```
jupyter labextension install jupyterlab-openscad-syntax-highlighting
```


Now you can launch your kernel my calling

```
jupyter lab
```
or 
```
jupyter workspace
```
## Versions
- 1.0     Initial Version
- 1.0.1   Additional syntax checking; Publish to pypi
