Cl-ply is a library to handle PLY format which is also known as the Stanford Triangle Format.
## Example
Here shows hot to read PLY file with cl-ply.
The following is an example PLY file:
ply
format ascii 1.0
comment this is test ply data.
element vertex 2
property float x
property float y
property float z
element face 2
property list uchar int vertex_indices
end_header
0.0 1.0 2.0
3.0 4.0 5.0
4 0 1 2 3
4 4 5 6 7
It contains two elements, ‘vertex‘ that has three float properties and ‘face‘ that has a list property of integer.
You can read the PLY file as following:
;; open a PLY file, closed automatically when control leaves
(cl-ply:with-ply-for-reading (plyfile #P"/path/to/file.ply")
;; read and print vertex elements
(loop repeat (cl-ply:ply-element-size plyfile "vertex")
do (format t "element vertex ~S~%"
(cl-ply:ply-read-element plyfile "vertex")))
;; read and print face elements
(loop repeat (cl-ply:ply-element-size plyfile "face")
do (format t "element face ~S~%"
(cl-ply:ply-read-element plyfile "face"))))
## Installation
Cl-ply can be installed via Quicklisp.
(ql:quickload :cl-ply)
## API
### [Macro] with-ply-for-reading
WITH-PLY-FOR-READING (var filespec) form* => results
Opens a file stream named by ‘filespec‘ and creates a plyfile object, reading PLY headers from the file. The plyfile object is bound to ‘var‘. ‘with-ply‘ evaluates ‘form‘ as an implicit progn with ‘var‘ and returns the result values. When control leaves the forms, either normally and abnormally, the file stream is automatically closed.
### [Function] ply-open-for-reading
OPEN-PLY-FOR-READING filespec => plyfile
Opens a file stream named by ‘filespec‘, creates a plyfile object and returns it. The plyfile object should be closed after its use.
### [Function] ply-close
PLY-CLOSE plyfile => result
Closes the plyfile object ‘plyfile‘. The return value is that of standard’s ‘close‘ function.
### [Function] ply-element-names
PLY-ELEMENT-NAMES plyfile => element-names
Returns all names of elements in ‘plyfile‘.
### [Function] ply-element-size
PLY-ELEMENT-SIZE plyfile element-name => size
Returns the number of elements named by ‘element-name‘ in ‘plyfile‘.
### [Function] ply-read-element
PLY-READ-ELEMENT plyfile element-name => result
Reads an element of ‘element-name‘ from ‘plyfile‘ and returns as a list of its properties.
### [Function] ply-comments
PLY-COMMENTS plyfile => comments
Returns a list of comments in ‘plyfile‘.
### [Function] ply-obj-info
PLY-OBJ-INFO plyfile => obj_info
Returns object information in ‘plyfile‘.
## FAQ
**Q. Does cl-ply support writing PLY format?**
A. No. Currenly, only reading PLY format is supported.
**Q. Does cl-ply support reading / writing PLY format in binary type?**
A. No. Currently, only ASCII type is supported.
