ConstructiveSolidGeometry.jl

A lightweight constructive solid geometry and ray tracing package for scientific computing in Julia.

Installation

You can install this package with the following Julia command:

Pkg.add("ConstructiveSolidGeometry")

The package can then be loaded and used in a Julia script or a Jupyter Notebook by:

using ConstructiveSolidGeometry

Note that plotting functionality for this package is dependent on Plots package and the PyPlot backend. If you don't have these already, install them by:

Pkg.add("Plots")
Pkg.add("PyPlot")

The PyPlot package requires that matplotlib (a python package) be installed on your system, which can be done using apt-get, pip, or by following the full instructions here.
