serialize-stl

=============

### STL (ASCII and binary) file serialization

Produces a [STL](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_%28file_format%29) (STereoLithography) ASCII string or binary buffer from a mesh. Face normals are computed internally if not provided.

Install

-------

```bash

$ npm install serialize-stl

```

Usage

-----

```javascript

var serializeSTL = require('serialize-stl');

var fs = require('fs');

var mesh = {

  positions: [

    [-1.0, 0.0, 0.0],

    [ 0.0, 1.0, 0.0],

    [ 1.0, 0.0, 0.0]

  ],

  cells: [

    [0, 1, 2]

  ]

};

// if ascii === true, will output an ASCII STL file.

// if faceNormals is falsy normals will be computed internally

var buf = serializeSTL(mesh.cells, mesh.positions/*, faceNormals, ascii*/);

fs.writeFileSync('mesh.stl', buf);

```
