classmethod from_json(geo_json)

Make radiance material from json {

“type”: “sphere”, // Geometry type “modifier”: {} or “void”, “name”: “”, // Geometry Name “center_pt”: {“x”: float, “y”: float, “z”: float}, “radius”: float

}

classmethod from_string(geometry_string, modifier=None)

Create a Radiance material from a string.

If the material has a modifier the modifier material should also be part of the string or should be provided using modifier argument.

radius = None

to_json()

Translate radiance material to json {

“type”: “sphere”, // Geometry type “modifier”: {} or void, // Modifier “name”: “”, // Geometry Name “center_pt”: {“x”: float, “y”: float, “z”: float}, “radius”: float

}
