Bug#1001105: RFP: pyvista -- 3D plotting and mesh analysis



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-python@lists.debian.org, debian-science@lists.debian.org

* Package name    : pyvista
  Version         : 0.32.0
  Upstream Author : The PyVista Developers
* URL             : https://github.com/pyvista/pyvista
* License         : MIT
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : 3D plotting and mesh analysis

PyVista is...

- "VTK for humans": a high-level API to the Visualization Toolkit (VTK)
- mesh data structures and filtering methods for spatial datasets
- 3D plotting made simple and built for large/complex data geometries

PyVista is a helper module for the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) that
wraps the VTK library through NumPy and direct array access through a
variety of methods and classes. This package provides a Pythonic,
well-documented interface exposing VTK's powerful visualization
backend to facilitate rapid prototyping, analysis, and visual
integration of spatially referenced datasets.

This module can be used for scientific plotting for presentations and
research papers as well as a supporting module for other mesh 3D
rendering dependent Python modules.


pyvista has started being used in demos for some client packages
(dolfinx), where it is used to visualize solutions. It would be nice
to be able to run these demos without seeing the "pyvista is required
to visualise the solution" warning message.

Well suited to team maintenance under the Debian Python Team, but
could be adopted by more specialized teams such as the Debian Science
Team.
