Usage

Default workflow (direct STL generation):

• Create a new directory, preferably outside this repo, to hold the generated STL files, and cd into that directory.
• Run ${PATH_TO_REPO}/bin/reference.py --config=${PATH_TO_REPO}/configs/Blanks.yaml --output=$(pwd) (swap the config/output values as needed). The script loads the YAML via bricks/config.py and writes config.json plus .stl assets without touching the deprecated OpenSCAD toolchain.
• Consume the generated STL files with the slicer of your choice.

Legacy workflow (kept for archival purposes):

• ${PATH_TO_REPO}/bin.DEPRECATED/configure.py still emits .scad sources and Makefiles compatible with openscad. Only use this path if you explicitly need the historical artifacts; the pytest suite and bin/reference.py no longer call it.

configure.py options

• --config this is one or multiple of the configs in the configs directory. At least one must be given.
• if config contains at least one remix config, then --remix_input must be provided. This takes a glob as input,

PythonSCAD & Testing

The repository also contains a PythonSCAD toolkit (pythonscad/) that mirrors the SCAD primitives in pure Python. The canonical Blank-Wall-4x1 generator now lives in bin/reference.py and is validated through pytest.

Run the PythonSCAD tests with:

pytest tests

Or run pytest from inside tests/. The local conftest.py ensures the repository root is on PYTHONPATH either way. See pythonscad/README.md and tests/README.md for module-level details, helper descriptions, and documented invariants enforced by the suite.
