make emulate
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9001/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d "{someKey: someVal}"
# or

Getting started

Assuming you have blender installed at the command line (e.g., blender launches the app at the cml), run the following command to render the included STL file. Replace this STL argument with any other STL you would like rendered out to PNG.

blender arch_docker.blend --background --python ethentic_v4.py -- 10.stl pla peach cove

This command will run the NY-Times Docker Image inside of your current directory and perform the render inside of the Docker container. just replace withe last argument with the name of your STL.

docker pull nytimes/blender:2.93-cpu-ubuntu18.04

docker run -w /tmp/ --volume $(pwd):/tmp/ nytimes/blender:2.93-cpu-ubuntu18.04 blender script_v2.blend --background --python ethentic_v2.py -- causeways_7.stl alumide orange
