Kind of a fourier-based redimensionalization, almost).

Style

[ ] Rethink the meaning of color and shapes in node sockets, including whether dynamic functionality is needed when it comes to socket shape (ex. it might be nice to know whether a socket is array-like or uses units). [ ] Rethink the meaning of color and shapes in node sockets, including whether dynamic functionality is needed when it comes to socket shape.

Architecture

Registration and Contracts

[x] Finish the contract code converting from Blender sockets to our sockets based on dimensionality and the property description. [ ] Refactor the node category code; it's ugly. [?] Would be nice with some kind of indicator somewhere to help set good socket descriptions when using geonodes and wanting units.

Managed Objects

[x] Implement modifier support on the managed BL object, with special attention paid to the needs of the GeoNodes socket.

  • Implement preview toggling too, ex. using the relevant node tree collections
  • Remember, the managed object is "dumb". It's the node's responsibility to react to any relevant on_value_change, and forward all state needed by the modifier to the managed obj. It's only the managed obj's responsibility to not update any modifier value that wouldn't change anything. Implement loading the xarray-defined voxels into OpenVDB, saving it, and loading it as a managed BL object with the volume setting. Implement basic jax-driven volume voxel processing, especially cube based slicing. Implement jax-driven linear interpolation of volume voxels to an image texture, whose pixels are sized according to the dimensions of another managed plane object (perhaps a uniquely described Managed BL object itself).

Utils or Services

[ ] Dedicated module for managing the interaction with the tidy3d cloud, to help nuke all the random caches out of existance.

Node Base Class

[ ] Dedicated draw_preview-type draw functions for plot customizations.

  • For now, previewing isn't something I think should be part of the node Custom @cache/@lru_cache/@cached_property which caches by instance ID (possibly based on beartype or pydantic). When presets are used, if a preset is selected and the user alters a preset setting, then dynamically switch the preset indicator back to "Custom" to indicate that there is no active preset It seems that node.inputs and node.outputs allows the use of a move method, which may allow reordering sockets dynamically, which we should expose to the user as user-configurable ordering rules (maybe resolved with a constraint solver). [?] Mechanism for dynamic names (ex. "Library Medium" becoming "Au Medium") [-] Mechanism for selecting a blender object managed by a particular node. Mechanism for ex. specially coloring a node that is currently participating in the preview. Custom callbacks when deleting a node (in free()), to ex. delete all previews with the viewer node.

Socket Base Class

[ ] A feature use_array which allows a socket to declare that it can be both a single value and array-like (possibly constrained to a given shape). This should also allow the SocketDef to request that the input socket be initialised as a multi-input socket, once Blender updates to support those.

  • Implement a shape-selector, with a dropdown for dimensionality and an appropriate IntegerVectorProperty for each kind of shape (supporting also straight-up inf), which is declared to the node that supports array-likeness so it can decide how exactly to expose properties in the array-like context of things. Make to_sockets no-consent to new links from from_sockets of differing type (we'll see if this controls the typing story enough for now, and how much we'll need capabilities in the long run)
  • [?] Alternatively, reject non matching link types, and red-mark non matching capabilities?

Many Nodes

[ ] Implement LazyValue stuff, including LazyParamValue on a new class of constant-like input nodes that really just emit ex. sympy variables. [?] Require a Unit System for nodes that construct Tidy3D objects [ ] Medium Features

  • Accept spatial field. Else, spatial uniformity.
  • Accept non-linearity. Else, linear.
  • Accept space-time modulation. Else, static. Modal Features
  • ModeSpec, for use by ModeSource, ModeMonitor, ModeSolverMonitor. Data includes ModeSolverData, ModeData, ScalarModeFieldDataArray, ModeAmpsDataArray, ModeIndexDataArray, ModeSolver.

Development Tooling

[ ] Implement rye support [ ] Setup neovim to be an ideal editor

Version Churn

[ ] Implement real StrEnum sockets, since they appear in py3.11 [ ] Think about implementing new panels where appropriate (https://developer.blender.org/docs/release_notes/4.1/python_api/) [ ] Think about using the new bl4.1 file handler API to enable drag and drop creation of appropriate nodes (for importing files without hassle). [ ] Keep an eye on our manual __annotations__ hacking; python 3.13 is apparently fucking with it. [ ] Plan for multi-input sockets https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/commit/14106150797a6ce35e006ffde18e78ea7ae67598 (for now, just use the "Combine" node and have seperate socket types for both). [ ] Keep an eye out for volume geonodes in 4.2 (July 16, 2024), which will better allow for more complicated volume processing (we might still want/need the jax based stuff after, but let's keep it minimal just in case)

Packaging

[ ] Allow specifying custom dir for keeping pip dependencies, so we can unify prod and dev (currently we hard-code a dev dependency path). [ ] Refactor top-level __init__.py to check dependencies first. If not everything is available, it should only register a minimal addon; specifically, a message telling the user that the addon requires additional dependencies (list which), and the button to install them. When the installation is done, re-check deps and register the rest of the addon. [ ] Use a Modal and multiline-text-like construction to print pip install as we install dependencies, so that the user has an idea that something is happening. [ ] Test on Windows

TIDY3D BUGS

  • Directly running SimulationTask.get() is bugged - it doesn't return some fields, including created_at. Listing tasks by folder is not broken.
