PyGeometry first draft about pyansys-geometry HOT 5 CLOSED

• Create a units module for handling conversions. Define ISU (i.e. metric) as reference and implement working mechanisms for that. Linked to Start the units subpackage #2

Simply use pint.

• Create a plotting module for visualizing the entity objects. Linked to Implement plotting subpackage #3

Generalize this. I can have the potential new hire work on this. Don't bother with plotting for this first pass.

The idea was generalizing it, yes. In the sense that all objects can be plotted.

my_obj.plot()

But we could also have a ScenePlotter (or similar) which would allow us to feed it multiple objects and plot them all together. I'll give it a second thought anyway. Thanks @akaszynski! And we will definitely be using PyVista. It was on the roadmap ;)

from pyansys-geometry.

Create a math/algebra module for operations with entity objects.

Reuse pyvista as much as possible as VTK's been tested out. See methods like https://docs.pyvista.org/api/core/_autosummary/pyvista.DataSet.transform.html

Main tasks in this issue are finished, only documentation improvement ones are missing
