Installation

Pip installation

pip install werk24    # install the library
werk24 init           # obtain a trial license

Quick Start

Here's how you can use the Werk24 client to extract data from a technical drawing:

import asyncio
from werk24 import Werk24Client, AskMetaData

async def read_drawing(path, asks):
  with open(path, "rb") as fid:
    async with Werk24Client() as client:
        return [msg async for msg in client.read_drawing(fid, asks)]

asyncio.run(read_drawing("<path>", [AskMetaData()]))
