💖 TRANSFORMPOINTS 💖

okay bestie, welcome to transformPoints, part of OpenFOAM (aka The Open Source CFD Toolbox). it's the glow-up tool for your mesh points, no cap ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

transformPoints [OPTIONS]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Transform (translate / rotate / scale) mesh points. that's it, that's the whole vibe — your mesh is getting a makeover and honestly? she deserves it 💅

note, bestie, this one matters: roll = rotate about x, pitch = rotate about y, yaw = rotate about z. write that down. tattoo it. iykyk 🦋

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -case dir — specify the case directory to use (instead of the cwd). like, tell her which folder we're doing this in 🏠
  • -decomposeParDict file — use the specified file for the decomposePar dictionary 📓
  • -origin point — use the specified point as the origin for rotations. the center of the whole spin moment 🌀
  • -parallel — run in parallel [Parallel option] 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️
  • -region name — specify an alternative mesh region 🗺️
  • -rollPitchYaw vector — rotate by '(roll pitch yaw)' degrees. yes, in that order, in degrees 🔄
  • -rotate (vectorA vectorB) — rotate from vectorA to vectorB — eg, '((1 0 0) (0 0 1))' 📐
  • -rotate-angle (vector scalar) — rotate angle degrees about vector — eg, '((1 0 0) 45)' 🎯
  • -rotateFields — read and transform vector and tensor fields too. not just the points, the fields are getting the treatment bestie 💫
  • -scale scalar | vector — scale by the specified amount — eg, for uniform [mm] to [m] scaling use either 📏
  • -time time — specify the time to search from and apply the transformation (default is latest) ⏰
  • -translate vector — translate by the specified vector — eg, '(1 0 0)' before rotations 🚚
  • -yawPitchRoll vector — rotate by '(yaw pitch roll)' degrees. yeah, this one's the opposite order of -rollPitchYaw, don't get it twisted 😭
  • -doc — display documentation in browser 🌐
  • -help — display short help and exit 👋
  • -help-full — display full help and exit 📜

🌈 ADVANCED OPTIONS 🌈

  • -debug-switch name=val — specify the value of a registered debug switch. default is 1 if the value is omitted. (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) 📚
  • -noFunctionObjects — do not execute function objects 🚫
  • -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) ⚙️
  • -roots (dir1 .. dirN) — slave root directories for distributed running [Parallel option] 🌳
  • -doc-source — display source code in browser 👀
  • -help-man — display full help (manpage format) and exit 📖
  • -help-notes — display help notes (description) and exit 📝
