Introduction

A 100% dart library for reading and writing STL files, a 3D file format widely used in 3D printing.

 $ flutter pub add vector_math

Examples

1. Read an STL file from a File into a List of Triangles

import 'package:dart_stl/stl_reader.dart';

File bunnyFile = File('bunny.stl');
List<Triangle>? tris = StlReader.loadSTL(bunnyFile);

2. Write a List of Triangles to an STL file

import 'package:dart_stl/stl_writer.dart';

List<Triangle> bunnyTriangles = ...
File bunnyFile = File('bunny.stl');

StlWriter.writeSTL(bunnyTriangles,"bunny",bunnyFile);

3. Write/read STL data to/from a String

List<Triangle> bunnyTriangles = ...
String bunnySTL = StlWriter.toSTL(bunnyTriangles,"bunny");
List<Triangles> bunnyTriangles2 = StlReader.fromSTL(bunnySTL);
