Hey. This page is more than 5 years old!

To cut a long story short*… for those of you that use (1) Python and (2) plot.ly Dash and I’ve written a package to help import OBJ 3D files** into the Dash framework’s 3dmesh graphs. Hopefully useful if you what to show data a little more contextually, or use OBJ file format as the way to encapsulate (architectural) data
* The story of why I threw the towel in on this blog.
** Import OBJ 3D files with a lot of restrictions – see GitHub repo
Docs for its use a little light on the ground, but the package is on PyPi, so you can import using:
pip install dash-obj-in-3dmesh
And the Github repo code does work as a Dash app, so if you have problems take a look at this, or contact me.
