Integrating plas.io into another app #53

Open rtm opened 9 years ago

rtm commented 9 years ago

Sorry if "issues" is not the right place for this type of question, in which case let me now where to ask instead.

I want to integrate plas.io into an existing node app. It would be best to have the display (of the model, not the controls) built right into my current UI. The LAS file in question comes from S3. Are there hooks/APIs which I can use to accomplish such a thing?

It would also be acceptable to have plas.io running in a iframe in my app. I would run a separate plas.io server. However, I would like the iframe to display only the model again, not the controls, and pass in both the file to be rendered and the parameters to render it somehow, perhaps as query parameters to a URL handed off to plas.io.

Any ideas about how I should proceed here?

Any thoughts on this?

@rtm Hi Bob, did you have any luck with this? I am working on similar task at the moment, want to integrate plasio into existing node/angular application. Regards, Roman.

We've had some people embed plasio as iframes as @rtm suggested, but haven't had a use case where we didn't want the controls to show up so that functionality isn't there. Also please do take a look at a more modern plasio renderer here: https://github.com/hobu/plasio-ui
