Description
The frdConverter has a couple of downsides:
- it is foreign code in our repository
- it requires
mono
, which is pretty dependency-heavy (~700Mb on Ubuntu) - it is fragile to use as it needs an absolute path
- there is no way to easily install it user/system-wide as it would require some wrapper script
- it doesn't produce a
.series
/.pdv
file which links output to time.
My suggestion is to replace it with ccx2paraview as it is easy to install, use, and produces .pdv
files.
I am currently trying to get it to a state where installing it is as easy as pipx install ccx2paraview
.
calculix/ccx2paraview#35
This would simplify the CalculiX repo, its documentation, post-processing in the tutorials, and the VM.
