manim_compat

Compatibility Mobs backed by Algan’s vendored Manim Community geometry.

The compatibility layer is intentionally narrow at the rendering boundary: Manim constructs and manipulates its normal Mobject graph, then ManimMob converts the resulting cubic Bezier circuits into Algan render primitives. This lets Algan expose Manim’s large collection of composite Mobjects without copying the geometry algorithms, while all animation, materials and rendering remain native to Algan.

Functions

from_manim(value, *, scene=None, add_to_scene=True)

Recursively convert values returned by delegated Manim APIs.

Converted Mobs register themselves with scene by default, exactly as directly constructed Mobs do, because Algan builds render primitives from the Scene’s actor list: a Mob that is not an actor never draws, no matter how it is spawned or styled. Pass add_to_scene=False only for conversions that duplicate geometry some other Mob already renders.

Parameters:

• value (Any)

• add_to_scene (bool)

install_opengl_aliases(namespace)

Install renderer-equivalent OpenGL names after native Mobs are imported.

Parameters:

namespace (Mapping[str, Any] | dict[str, Any])

to_manim(value)

Recursively convert Algan values used as Manim constructor arguments.

Parameters:

value (Any)
