Werk24 Client

• Understand the content of your PDF- and image-based Technical Drawings with a simple API call.

Werk24 offers an easy to use API to extract information from PDF- and image-based Technical Drawings. With the API are able to obtain:

• Thumbnails of the Page / Canvas / Sectionals (Cuts and Perspectives)
• Measures incl. tolerances
• Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Frames

let messages = [];
function receive(curMessage) { messages.push(curMessage); }

// load the library of available ask types and the drawing
const askLib = await werk24.loadAsks();
const drawingBytes = fs.readFileSync("./__int_tests__/assets/technical_drawing.png");

// define the hooks that we are interested in
const hooks = [new werk24.Hook(new askLib.W24AskVariantMeasures(), receive)];

// make a new client instance from the environemnt variables
// and perform the call

try {
    await client.readDrawingWithHooks(drawingBytes, hooks);
} catch (e) { console.error(e); } finally { client.close(); }
