💅 SINGLECELLMESH 💅

okay bestie, welcome to singleCellMesh — it's part of OpenFOAM (aka The Open Source CFD Toolbox), and it's lowkey one of those lil utilities that just does one thing. Iconic behaviour honestly. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

singleCellMesh [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no positional args, just you and a pile of options like it's a build-your-own-adventure. 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does it actually DO, you ask? it maps fields to a mesh with all internal faces removed — that's the singleCellFvMesh situation — and then it writes the result out to the region singleCell. 🎀

so like. every internal face? gone. deleted. not invited to the party. 💀 and the mapped fields land in region singleCell, periodt.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -case dir — tell it which case directory to use instead of just vibing in the cwd. 🏠
  • -constant — include the constant/ dir in the times list. let it in, bestie. 🫶
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the file you specify for the decomposePar dictionary. 🗂️
  • -latestTime — select the latest time. main character time only. ⏰👑
  • -noZero — exclude the 0/ dir from the times list. sorry 0/, not today. 🙈
  • -parallel — run in parallel. [Parallel option] — yes it's giving multithreading era. 🔥
  • -time ranges — a list of ranges. e.g. :10,20 40:70 1000:, none, etc. go off with the ranges. 📊
  • -doc — display documentation in your browser. slay, reading era. 📖
  • -help — display short help and exit. the quick lil peek. ✨
  • -help-full — display full help and exit. the whole lore drop. 💖

🧚 ADVANCED OPTIONS 🧚

these are the deep cuts, iykyk.

  • -debug-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is 1 if you omit the value. (can be used multiple times) 🐛
  • -fileHandler handler — override the file handler type. 📁
  • -hostRoots ((host1 dir1) .. (hostN dirN)) — per-host slave root directories for distributed running. the host specification can be a regex. [Parallel option] 🌐
  • -info-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered info switch. default is 1 if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times) ℹ️
  • -lib name — additional library or library list to load (can be used multiple times). load 'em up. 📚
  • -noFunctionObjects — do not execute function objects. they stay seated. 🪑
  • -opt-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered optimisation switch (int/bool). default is 1 if the value is omitted. (can be used multiple times) ⚡

reminder bestie: -parallel, -hostRoots and -roots are all tagged [Parallel option] in the original, so don't be surprised when they only really matter in distributed running. no cap. 🫶
