index.html sample does not work

[paulusm]

The sample index.html and main.js do not seem to work: the model file is read, but the sd.load() call does not seem to return.

When I try adjusting the load call, with:

sd.load('model/test.xml').then( model => { console.log("Valid = " + model[0].valid); drawing = model.drawing('#model1', true, false); });

This returns valid, but gives the error:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: model.drawing is not a function

..and the sim and project properties also seem to be missing.

aah, yup! sorry about this @paulusm. I refactored things and haven't updated the examples (and in particular moved the drawing code out to a still-private repo). I will work to fix this but it will probably be this coming weekend.

Great, thanks - it looks like it could be a great resource.

@bpowers any updates? Looks promising!

Hi @bpowers, looks like you've done a significant refactor and it'd be great to see a quick example of how to get the simulation running.

Hi @janbaykara, @tomkooij, and @paulusm! Can you describe what you're interested in doing? Is it embedding a model in a website (like from a <script> or <link> tag in HTML), including it in a larger website with an existing build process (using npm install sd.js and import { Model } from 'sd.js';), or some other use case? Are you interested just in showing a model or results, or interacting with a simulation?

Just trying to get an idea for what to prioritize

Thanks @bpowers. I would like to visualise models that we use in high-school physics exams in The Netherlands (https://github.com/tomkooij/modelleertaal) and (http://www.tomkooij.nl/modelleertaal/). I wonder if sd.js would be usuable to visualise (render) the models.

I can elaborate if needed :).

Hi @bpowers, I was interested in integrating it into a webapp, and running the model in the browser using parameters from the user / those saved from previous sessions (so parameters retrieved through an API). So in my case it would be part of the build with npm etc..
