There is an example project in the example folder. Run it using:

cd example
deno run --allow-net --allow-read server.ts

# or

make example

There are also automated tests that can be run using:

cd tests

API

The project is an ES6 module. Simply import the module:

import OpenSCAD from "./openscad.js";
// OPTIONAL: add fonts to the FS
import { addFonts } from "./openscad.fonts.js";
// OPTIONAL: add MCAD liibrary to the FS
import { addMCAD } from "./openscad.mcad.js";

// Instantiate the application
const instance = await OpenSCAD();

// OPTIONAL: add fonts to the FS
addFonts(instance);

// OPTIONAL: add MCAD liibrary to the FS
addMCAD(instance);

// Write a file to the filesystem
instance.FS.writeFile("/input.scad", `cube(10);`);

// Run OpenSCAD with the arguments "/input.scad -o cube.stl"
instance.callMain(["/input.scad", "-o", "cube.stl"]);

// Read the data from cube.stl
const output = instance.FS.readFile("/cube.stl");
