⁠File Simplifier

File Simplifier is a docker container to simplify file and optionnaly convert them to ply. It uses :

• OpenCTM⁠ to convert the 3D file to stl and optionnaly convert the stl to ply.
• Fast-Quadric-Mesh-Simplification⁠ to simplify the file.

⁠Build the container

docker build -t tag_name -f dockerfile_path path_to_the_folder_containing_the_docker_file

The -f tag is optional on LINUX if the Dockerfile is properly named (no file extension).

⁠Run the container

docker run image_name -f|--filename name_of_the_file_without_extension -i|--input input_dir -o|--output output_dir -s|--status path_to_the_folder_where_to_write_the_status_json_file | --targetsize target-size-of-output -t | --convert -c

Parameters :

• name_of_the_file_without_extension : the name of the 3D file without the extension.
• input_dir: the relative or absolute path to the folder which contains the 3D file.
• output_dir: the relative or absolute path to the folder where the outputs folder will be stacked. Note that the path must exist.
• path_to_the_folder_where_to_write_the_status_json_file: the relative or absolute path to the folder which will contain the status.json file which consists in a live report of the process to use with the task actionner.
• target-size-of-output: target size in megabytes.
