Prerequisites

OpenScad as ran on command line. Download from openscad.org

On a 'headless' server, you may need to set up a virtual container for the program to render into. The code below is to be ran on the command line before you run the comand line openscad. It may not work on your server. A google search found this example, your system may need something else.
