* chore(gitignore): ignore yarn error log

* build(yarn): update yarn lock

* build(preview-service webpack): add extra resolved path to preview service webpack config

because of yarn package hoisting, there are no package level node_modules folder anymore.

* build(docker): update dockerignore with yarn specific configs

* build(docker): update Dockerfiles for yarn workspaces utilization

* ci(circleci): update server test job to yarn

* ci(circle): disable cache restore

* ci(circleci): trying the node orb yarn-run

* ci(circleci): yarn-run again

* ci(circleci): disable node orb

* ci(circleci): change base node image for tests

* ci(circleci): add yarn cache

* ci(circleci): remove node install step

* ci(circleci): add server specific cache archives

* ci(circleci): test build and publish

* ci(circleci): change npm auth method to suit yarn

* ci(circleci): trying new builder image

* ci(circleci): another base image, maybe this works

* ci(circleci): force a specific docker engine version

* ci(circleci): add yarn version plugin and its changes

We're working to stabilize the 2.0 API, and until then there will be breaking changes.

📚 Speckle Docs website

Getting started

Working with viewer (for more, check ./src/example.js):

import { Viewer } from '@speckle/viewer'

const v = new Viewer({
  container: document.getElementById('renderer'),
  showStats: true
})

Development

For testing purposes you can see viewer in action by running yarn example, which will run an example server at 'http://127.0.0.1:3002'.

To build the library run yarn build, to build a dev (unminified w/ sourcemaps) build run yarn build:dev and to run a dev build in watch mode run yarn dev.

API

Syntax and examples for supported API methods. The examples assume a Viewer instance named v.

Load/Unload an object

v.loadObject( objectUrl ) / v.unloadObject( objectUrl )

Example: v.loadObject( 'https://speckle.xyz/streams/3073b96e86/objects/e05c5834368931c9d9a4e2087b4da670' )

Get properties of loaded objects

v.getObjectsProperties()

This returns a dictionary with { propertyName: propertyInfo } elements. The property information provided is:

  • type ( == 'string' / 'number' / 'boolean'): the property type
  • objectCount (int): How many objects in the scene have this property
  • allValues (array of objectCount elements): The values for this property of all objects that have this property
  • minValue - the smallest value (using < operator, works also on strings)
  • maxValue - the largest value
  • uniqueValues - a dictionary of { uniqueValue: occurenceCount } elements, secifying how many objects have the property set to that specific value

Filtering and coloring

Those calls filter and color the objects loaded in the scene, and drops the previous applied filters (filtering is not additive).

Syntax: await v.applyFilter( { filterBy, colorBy, ghostOthers } )

The 3 optional parameters are:

  • filterBy: A dictionary that specify the filter. Elements are in the form { propertyName: propertyValueFilter }. The propertyValueFilter can be one of:

    • A specific value: (only objects with that property value pass the filter)
    • An array of values: An object passes the filter if its value is in the array
    • A range of values, specified by { 'gte': value1, 'lte': value2 } (greater than or equal, lower than or equal)
    • An exclusion list, specified by { 'not': excludedValuesArray }
  • colorBy: A dictionary that makes all objects colored based on a property value. Two types of coloring are supported:

    • Gradient (from a numeric property): { 'type': 'gradient', 'property': propertyName, 'minValue': propertyMinValue, 'maxValue': propertyMaxValue, 'gradientColors': [color1, color2], default: colorForObjectsWithMissingProperty }
    • Category (for coloring each unique value differently): { 'type': 'category', 'property': propertyName, 'values': { value1: color1, value2: color2, ... }, 'default': colorForAnyOtherValue }. The values and the default parameters are optional: Random colors are generated if they are omitted.
  • ghostOthers: A boolean (default false). If set to true, then the objects that are filtered out are actually shown with very low opacity, so that the remaining objects have a better context.

For colorBy, setting a color to null will use the original material instead of coloring it.

To remove all filters: await v.applyFilter( null )
