# OSR CAD Tools

This is a CLI(CommandLineInterface) toolset to convert 3D files, using Solidworks and other software.

## Requirements

1. [Node-JS](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
2. Optional: install [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) (Make sure you enable Linux tools on Windows console)
3. Solidworks 2020. In case you are using another version, please find on your disc 'SolidWorks.Interop.sldworks.dll' and replace the one in [./sw/2022](https://git.osr-plastic.org/osr-plastic/osr-cad/src/branch/master/sw/2022)

## Installation

```sh

git clone https://git.osr-plastic.org/osr-plastic/osr-cad.git
cd osr-convert-cad
npm i

# or globally (recommended)

npm i @plastichub/osr-cad -g

```

## Usage

Open a terminal and run this:

```sh
osr-cad --help
```
