gdsfactory.path.Path

class gdsfactory.path.Path(path=None)

Path object for smooth Paths. You can extrude a Path with a CrossSection to create a Component.

Parameters:

path – array-like[N][2], Path, or list of Paths. Points or Paths to append() initially.

__init__(path=None) → None

Creates an empty path.

Methods

__init__([path])	Creates an empty path.
append(path)	Attach Path to the end of this Path.
copy()	Returns a copy of the Path.
curvature()	Calculates Path curvature.
extrude([cross_section, layer, width, ...])	Returns Component by extruding a Path with a CrossSection.
hash_geometry([precision])	Computes an SHA1 hash of the points in the Path and the start_angle and end_angle.
length()	Return cumulative length.
mirror([p1, p2])	Mirrors the Path across the line formed between the two specified points.
move([origin, destination, axis])	Moves the Path from the origin point to the destination.
movex([origin, destination])	Moves an object by a specified x-distance.
movey([origin, destination])	Moves an object by a specified y-distance.
offset([offset])	Offsets Path so that it follows the Path centerline plus an offset.
plot()	Plot path in matplotlib.
rotate([angle, center])	Rotates all Polygons in the Component around the specified center point.
to_dict()

Attributes

bbox	Returns the bounding box of the Path.
center	Returns the center of the bounding box.
size	Returns the (x, y) size of the bounding box.
x	Returns the x-coordinate of the center of the bounding box.
xmax	Returns the maximum x-value of the bounding box.
xmin	Returns the minimum x-value of the bounding box.
xsize	Returns the horizontal size of the bounding box.
y	Returns the y-coordinate of the center of the bounding box.
ymax	Returns the maximum y-value of the bounding box.
ymin	Returns the minimum y-value of the bounding box.
ysize	Returns the vertical size of the bounding box.
