Manifold-Swift

A Swift interface to the Manifold geometry library, for manipulation of solid 3D meshes.

This SPM package includes Manifold, as well as its dependencies Clipper2 and oneTBB as Git submodules, so no additional dependencies are needed beyond the C++ standard library. Manifold-Swift covers most of the Manifold API, and naming is similar but using Swift conventions. It works on all Apple platforms as well as Linux and Windows.

Usage

Add the package as a dependency in your Package.swift (or Xcode project). Because the library interfaces with C++, you need to enable C++ interoperability.

let package = Package(
    name: "manifold-swift-example",
    dependencies: [
        .package(url: "https://github.com/tomasf/manifold-swift.git", .upToNextMinor(from: "0.2.0"))
    ],
    targets: [
        .executableTarget(
            name: "manifold-swift-example",
            dependencies: [.product(name: "Manifold", package: "manifold-swift")],
            swiftSettings: [.interoperabilityMode(.Cxx)]
        )
    ]
)

Example

The library uses protocols for vectors and matrices. The Manifold and CrossSection types are generic over V, so you can plug in your own vector type.

struct MyVector: Vector3 {
    let x, y, z: Double
}

let box = Manifold.cube(size: MyVector(x: 12, y: 20, z: 20))
    .rotate(MyVector(x: 20, y: 25, z: 0))

let difference = Manifold.sphere(radius: 10, segmentCount: 25)
    .boolean(.difference, with: box)

let meshGL = difference.meshGL()
// Render or save meshGL.vertices, meshGL.triangles, etc.
