py3dframe.Frame.from_json

classmethod Frame.from_json(filename)

Load the Frame object from a JSON file.

See also

• method from_dict() to load the Frame object from a dictionary.

Parameters:

filename (str) – The name of the JSON file.

Returns:

The Frame object.

Return type:

Frame

Examples

Create a Frame object and save it to a JSON file using the default method (quaternion, rotation_vector, rotation_matrix):

from py3dframe import Frame
frame = Frame.from_axes(origin=[1, 2, 3], x_axis=[1, 0, 0], y_axis=[0, 1, 0], z_axis=[0, 0, 1], convention=0)
frame.to_json("frame.json")

# Reload the Frame object from the JSON file:

loaded_frame = Frame.from_json("frame.json")

Warning, the method no longer saves the parent frame. To save/load a system of frames, consider using the FrameTree class.

from py3dframe import Frame

parent = Frame.from_axes(origin=[0, 0, 0], x_axis=[1, 0, 0], y_axis=[0, 1, 0], z_axis=[0, 0, 1], convention=0)
child = Frame.from_axes(origin=[1, 0, 0], x_axis=[1, 0, 0], y_axis=[0, 1, 0], z_axis=[0, 0, 1], convention=0, parent=parent)

child.to_json("child_frame.json")
parent.to_json("parent_frame.json")

# Reload the frames from the JSON files

loaded_parent = Frame.from_json("parent_frame.json")
loaded_child = Frame.from_json("child_frame.json")
loaded_child.parent = loaded_parent # IMPORTANT
