Description: pyIGES
        ======
        Python IGES reader with basic functionality to read an IGES file and
        convert some entities to a ``pyvista`` or ``vtk`` mesh.
        
        This module can read in and perform basic parsing of all entities and
        can perform additional parsing and geometry visualization of the
        following entities:
        
        - Vertex List (Type 502 Form 1)
        - Edge List
        - Loop (for specifying a bounded face for BREP geometries
        - Face
        - Circular arc
        - Rational B-Spline Surface
        - Rational B-Spline Curve
        - Conic Arc (Type 104)
        - Line
        - Point
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        Install with pip using:
        
        .. code::
        
           pip install pyiges
        
        Otherwise, if you want the bleeding edge version, feel free to clone
        this repo and install with:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
           git clone https://github.com/pyvista/pyiges
           cd pyiges
           pip install .
        
        
        Usage
        -----
        The ``pyiges`` module can read in many entities as raw text, but only
        NURBS surfaces and bsplines can be converted to ``pyvista`` meshes.
        
        .. code:: python
        
            import pyiges
            from pyiges import examples
        
            # load an example impeller
            iges = pyiges.read(examples.impeller)
        
            # print an invidiual entity (boring)
            print(iges[0])
        
            # convert all lines to a vtk mesh and plot it
            lines = iges.to_vtk(bsplines=True, surfaces=False, merge=True)
            lines.plot(color='w', line_width=2)
        
            # convert all surfaces to a vtk mesh and plot it
            mesh = iges.to_vtk(bsplines=False, surfaces=True, merge=True, delta=0.05)
            mesh.plot(color='w', smooth_shading=True)
            # control resolution of the mesh by changing "delta"
        
            # save this surface to file
            mesh.save('mesh.ply')  # as ply
            mesh.save('mesh.stl')  # as stl
            mesh.save('mesh.vtk')  # as vtk
