BooleanOperations
=================

Boolean operations on paths which uses a super fast `polygon clipper
library by Angus Johnson <http://www.angusj.com/delphi/clipper.php>`__.

You can download the latest version from PyPI:

https://pypi.org/project/booleanOperations.

Install
-------

`Pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/>`__ is the recommended tool to
install booleanOperations.

To install the latest version:

.. code:: sh

    pip install booleanOperations

BooleanOperations depends on the following packages:

- `pyclipper <https://pypi.org/project/pyclipper/>`__: Cython wrapper for
  the C++ Clipper library
- `fonttools <github.com/behdad/fonttools>`__

All dependencies are available on PyPI, so they will be resolved
automatically upon installing booleanOperations.

BooleanOperationManager
-----------------------

Containing a ``BooleanOperationManager`` handling all boolean operations
on paths. Paths must be similar to ``defcon``, ``robofab`` contours. A
manager draws the result in a ``pointPen``.

.. code:: py

    from booleanOperations import BooleanOperationManager

    manager = BooleanOperationManager()

BooleanOperationManager()
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Create a ``BooleanOperationManager``.

manager.union(contours, pointPen)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Performs a union on all ``contours`` and draw it in the ``pointPen``.
(this is a what a remove overlaps does)

manager.difference(contours, clipContours, pointPen)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Knock out the ``clipContours`` from the ``contours`` and draw it in the
``pointPen``.

manager.intersection(contours, clipContours, pointPen)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Draw only the overlaps from the ``contours`` with the
``clipContours``\ and draw it in the ``pointPen``.

manager.xor(contours, clipContours, pointPen)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Draw only the parts that not overlaps from the ``contours`` with the
``clipContours``\ and draw it in the ``pointPen``.

manager.getIntersections(contours)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Returning all intersection for the given contours

BooleanGlyph
------------

A glyph like object with boolean powers.

.. code:: py

    from booleanOperations.booleanGlyph import BooleanGlyph

    booleanGlyph = BooleanGlyph(sourceGlyph)

BooleanGlyph(sourceGlyph)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Create a ``BooleanGlyph`` object from ``sourceGlyph``. This is a very
shallow glyph object with basic support.

booleanGlyph.union(other)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Perform a **union** with the ``other``. Other must be a glyph or
``BooleanGlyph`` object.

.. code:: py

    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph).union(BooleanGlyph(glyph2))
    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph) | BooleanGlyph(glyph2)

booleanGlyph.difference(other)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Perform a **difference** with the ``other``. Other must be a glyph or
``BooleanGlyph`` object.

.. code:: py

    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph).difference(BooleanGlyph(glyph2))
    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph) % BooleanGlyph(glyph2)

booleanGlyph.intersection(other)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Perform a **intersection** with the ``other``. Other must be a glyph or
``BooleanGlyph`` object.

.. code:: py

    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph).intersection(BooleanGlyph(glyph2))
    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph) & BooleanGlyph(glyph2)

booleanGlyph.xor(other)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Perform a **xor** with the ``other``. Other must be a glyph or
``BooleanGlyph`` object.

.. code:: py

    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph).xor(BooleanGlyph(glyph2))
    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph) ^ BooleanGlyph(glyph2)

booleanGlyph.removeOverlap()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Perform a **union** on it self. This will remove all overlapping
contours and self intersecting contours.

.. code:: py

    result = BooleanGlyph(glyph).removeOverlap()

--------------

booleanGlyph.name
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The **name** of the ``sourceGlyph``.

booleanGlyph.unicodes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The **unicodes** of the ``sourceGlyph``.

booleanGlyph.width
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The **width** of the ``sourceGlyph``.

booleanGlyph.lib
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The **lib** of the ``sourceGlyph``.

booleanGlyph.note
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The **note** of the ``sourceGlyph``.

booleanGlyph.contours
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

List the **contours** of the glyph.

booleanGlyph.components
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

List the **components** of the glyph.

booleanGlyph.anchors
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

List the **anchors** of the glyph.
