Hello,
I use Paraview to visualize optical measurement data during buckling
experiments we perform at our institute. Normally I do the
visualization after the test, however, I would like to extend our
capabilities and monitor the results during the test. I have some
experience in Python scripting in Paraview, but I cannot figure out
how to dynamically add files to a reader. What I would like to do is
launch a script that observes a directory for new files, automatically
load the file and update the render window to the last entry. In
pseudo code I would like to do something like the following (not
working):
>> observer = MyObserver('my_directory')
>> reader = XMLUnstructuredGridReader(FileName = ['stage-1.vtu'])
>> warp = WarpByVector()
>> ....
>> while True:
fname = observer.next()
if fname:
reader.FileName.append(fname)
UpdatePipeline()
Render()
>>
Can something like this be accomplished with the python scripting
interface to Paraview?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Marco
