Madeleine.js is smart enough to distinguish whether stl files are ASCII or binary, and is able to create and handle multiple 3D model viewers (WARNING: Multiple rendering may slow down the speed). Also, Madeleine.js helps you to immediately render any stl file as you upload!
Features
Parse, render and visualize STL format files.
Automatically distinguish binary and ASCII, and parse it properly.
Accept STL file from external url or user file upload.
Support rendering multiple models (also multi upload).
Provide various themes for model viewer.
Allow user to interact with the model via mouse actions.
Support capturing the rendered 3D model (Implementing)
Support downloading the original stl file (Implementing)
For developers, download or clone this repository and locate it on your web server root. You can check working demo by visiting repo/examples/index.html from your browser. Download any stl file and see how well it works!
Getting Started
First, include resources into element of your code.
All you need to do is simply asking Lily (is Madeleine's sister) to get ready for file upload. She will take care of taking files, parsing, rendering and visualizing them.
<form id="myForm" name="myForm">
<input type="file" id="myForm" name="myForm" multiple>
</form>
<div id="target"></div>
<script>window.onload = function(){ Lily.ready({ target: 'target', // target div id file: 'files', // file input id path: '../src' // path to source directory from current html file });}; </script>
2. Render from file path
If you know the url or path to the stl file, call Madeleine directly with target div id and the file path.
<div id="target" class="madeleine"></div>
<script>window.onload = function(){ var madeleine = new Madeleine({ target: 'target', // target div id data: 'path/to/file.stl', // data path path: '../src' // path to source directory from current html file });}; </script>
