💖 LUMPEDPOINTZONES 💖

okay bestie, sit down, we're doing OpenFOAM Commands Manual things. this is lumpedPointZones(1), and it's part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). yes THE toolbox. the iconique one. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lumpedPointZones [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one binary, a pile of options, no positional arguments to trip over. we love a clean entry point. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does this little cutie actually do? it creates lumpedPointZones.vtp so you can verify the segmentation of pressure integration zones used by the lumpedPoint BC.

that's the whole job. it makes the .vtp file, you open the .vtp file, you look at your zones, you go "oh. oh that's not right" or "slay, that's exactly right". it's a vibe check for your boundary condition, fr fr. 🌸

ngl, this is a debugging/visualisation helper. if you're not using the lumpedPoint BC, this page is not your main character. if you ARE, welcome home. 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -case dir — point it at the case directory you wanna use instead of the cwd. cwd is the default, obviously. 😌
  • -region name — pick a different mesh region, if your case is built like that. multi-region girlies rise. 🌈
  • -verbose — extra verbosity. more words. more lore. more "what is it doing" energy. 🔥
  • -doc — opens the documentation in your browser. no cap, it literally launches a browser. 🖥️
  • -help — short help, then exit. the snack version. 🍓
  • -help-full — full help, then exit. the whole meal. 🍽️

🧚 ADVANCED OPTIONS 🧚

these are for when you're feeling brave. or desperate. or both.

  • -debug-switch name=val — set the value of a registered debug switch. if you omit the value, the default is 1. (can be used multiple times, go off) 🐛
  • -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type. yes you can just... choose a different one. 😭
  • -info-switch name=val — set the value of a registered info switch. omit the value and the default is 1. (can be used multiple times) 📢
  • -lib name — load an additional library or library list. (can be used multiple times) 🧩
  • -opt-switch name=val — set the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). omit the value and the default is 1. (can be used multiple times) ⚡
  • -doc-source — displays the source code in your browser. peek behind the curtain, bestie. 👀
  • -help-compat — displays compatibility options, then exits.
  • -help-man — displays full help in manpage format, then exits. meta. we're in a manpage about manpages. 💀
  • -help-notes — displays help notes (the description), then exits.

🙈 COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS 🙈

  • -noFunctionObjects — this option is ignored.

that's it. it's ignored. it does nothing. it's the decorative pillow of options. we respect it anyway. 🫶
