Any examples for simple uses of the libSlic3r API #5143

Hi,

I am developing a software in C++ and have successfully imported the libslic3r libraries into my project. I was wondering if there are any examples out there (even very simple ones) of using the API to import a model, slice it and exporting GCode. Basically anything to help me get started on how to use the API beyond the list of classes and methods.

Any help is much appreciated.

@MBeghal there are some test-files inside slic3r itself (slic3r>slic3r>src>test) you can use as examples. Also, I found this python-slic3r-api helpfull: https://github.com/VasanthBalguri/slic3r-python/tree/master.

Do you have some advice on how to import libslic3r into your project? How did you manage it? I would really be thankfull for your advice!
