CSG library for use with THREE.js

Package Exports

  • @lichr/three-csg-ts

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@lichr/three-csg-ts) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

three-csg-ts

CSG (Constructive Solid Geometry) library for three.js with Typescript support.

This is a typescript rewrite of THREE-CSGMesh.

Concept

CSG is the name of a technique for generating a new geometry as a function of two input geometries.

CSG is sometimes referred to as "Boolean" operators in 3d modelling packages.

Internally it uses a structure called a BSP (binary space partitioning) tree to carry out these operations.

The supported operations are .subtract, .union, and .intersect.

By using different combinations of these 3 operations, and changing the order of the input models, you can construct any combination of the input models.

Installation

  • Install with npm npm i -save three-csg-ts
  • Install with yarn yarn add three-csg-ts

Example usage

import * as THREE from 'three';
import { CSG } from 'three-csg-ts';

// Make 2 meshes..
const box = new THREE.Mesh(new THREE.BoxGeometry(2, 2, 2), new THREE.MeshNormalMaterial());
const sphere = new THREE.Mesh(new THREE.SphereGeometry(1.2, 8, 8));

// Make sure the .matrix of each mesh is current
box.updateMatrix();
sphere.updateMatrix();

// Perform CSG operations
// The result is a THREE.Mesh that you can add to your scene...
const subRes = CSG.subtract(box, sphere);
const uniRes = CSG.union(box, sphere);
const intRes = CSG.intersect(box, sphere);
