Faster (than PyAssimp) Python bindings for Assimp, Cython-based, BSD3 license.

It uses the same naming as the original library, so examples from the official docs can be used directly (minus C sintaxis).

from assimpcy import aiImportFile, aiPostProcessSteps as pp 
flags = pp.aiProcess_JoinIdenticalVertices | pp.aiProcess_Triangulate 
scene = aiImportFile('mymodel.3ds', flags)
print('Vertex {} = {}'.format(v, scene.mMeshes[0].mVertices[0]))

Matrices, quaternions and vectors are returned as Numpy arrays.

It is compatible with:

• Windows: Python 3.5+
• Linux: Python 2.7, 3.4+

• Assimp >= 3.1.1
• Numpy >= 1.9.2

The easiest way is:

pip install assimpcy

If that does not work for you, please check Installation for instructions.

• Cameras
• Lights
• Export functionality

Those might be added in the future.

And what about the name? Well, cyassimp was already taken 😞.
