VTK algorithms (filters) follow a standard flow for most cases: 1. Instantiate the algorithm 2. Set the input data object or connection: ``.SetInputDataObject(mesh)`` 3. Adjust algorithm parameters with the setter methods, e.g., ``SetParameterName(value)`` 4. Call ``.Update()`` to run the algorithm 5. Retrieve the output of the algorithm: ``output = alg.GetOutput()`` Let's see if we can try a few VTK algorithms with that standard workflow. ..

It is safe to call this method repeatedly with the same | input data object. The MTime of the vtkAlgorithm will not change | unless the data object changed. | | SetNoPriorTemporalAccessInformationKey(...) | SetNoPriorTemporalAccessInformationKey(self, key:int) -> None | C++: void SetNoPriorTemporalAccessInformationKey(int key) | SetNoPriorTemporalAccessInformationKey(self) -> None | C++: void SetNoPriorTemporalAccessInformationKey() | | Set to all output ports of this algorithm the information key | `vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::NO_PRIOR_TEMPORAL_ACCESS()`. | This should be set on sources of pipelines for which all | timesteps are not necessarily all available at once. This is | typically the case for visualization in situ. | | ote Default value in | `vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::NO_PRIOR_TEMPORAL_ACCESS_RESET` | . `vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline` will set it to | `NO_PRIOR_TEMPORAL_ACCESS_CONTINUE' after execution of the first | time step. | | SetProgressObserver(...) | SetProgressObserver(self, __a:vtkProgressObserver) -> None | C++: void SetProgressObserver(vtkProgressObserver *) | | If an ProgressObserver is set, the algorithm will report progress | through it rather than directly. This means that it will call | UpdateProgress() on the ProgressObserver rather than itself | report it and set progress. This is most useful in situations | where multiple threads are executing an algorithm at the same | time and want to handle progress locally. | | SetProgressShiftScale(...) | SetProgressShiftScale(self, shift:float, scale:float) -> None | C++: void SetProgressShiftScale(double shift, double scale) | | Specify the shift and scale values to use to apply to the | progress amount when `UpdateProgress` is called. By default shift | is set to 0, and scale is set to 1.0. This is useful when the | vtkAlgorithm instance is used as an internal algorithm to solve | only a part of a whole problem. | | If calling on a internal vtkAlgorithm, make sure you take into | consideration that values set of the outer vtkAlgorithm as well | since the outer vtkAlgorithm itself may be nested in another | algorithm. | | ote SetProgressShiftScale does not modify the MTime of the | algorithm. | | SetProgressText(...) | SetProgressText(self, ptext:str) -> None | C++: void SetProgressText(const char *ptext) | | Set the current text message associated with the progress state. | This may be used by a calling process/GUI. Note: Because | SetProgressText() is called from inside RequestData() it does not | modify the algorithm object. Algorithms are not allowed to modify | themselves from inside RequestData(). | | SetReleaseDataFlag(...) | SetReleaseDataFlag(self, __a:int) -> None | C++: virtual void SetReleaseDataFlag(vtkTypeBool) | | Turn release data flag on or off for all output ports. | | Update(...) | Update(self, port:int) -> None | C++: virtual void Update(int port) | Update(self) -> None | C++: virtual void Update() | Update(self, port:int, requests:vtkInformationVector) -> int | C++: virtual vtkTypeBool Update(int port, | vtkInformationVector *requests) | Update(self, requests:vtkInformation) -> int | C++: virtual vtkTypeBool Update(vtkInformation *requests) | | Bring this algorithm's outputs up-to-date. | | UpdateDataObject(...) | UpdateDataObject(self) -> None | C++: virtual void UpdateDataObject() | | Create output object(s). | | UpdateExtent(...) | UpdateExtent(self, extents:(int, int, int, int, int, int)) -> int | C++: virtual int UpdateExtent(const int extents[6]) | | Convenience method to update an algorithm after passing requests | to its first output port. Supports extent request. | | UpdateExtentIsEmpty(...) | UpdateExtentIsEmpty(self, pinfo:vtkInformation, | output:vtkDataObject) -> int | C++: int UpdateExtentIsEmpty(vtkInformation *pinfo, | vtkDataObject *output) | UpdateExtentIsEmpty(self, pinfo:vtkInformation, extentType:int) | -> int | C++: int UpdateExtentIsEmpty(vtkInformation *pinfo, | int extentType) | | This detects when the UpdateExtent will generate no data This | condition is satisfied when the UpdateExtent has zero volume | (0,-1,...) or the UpdateNumberOfPieces is 0. The source uses this | call to determine whether to call Execute. | | UpdateInformation(...) | UpdateInformation(self) -> None | C++: virtual void UpdateInformation() | | Bring the algorithm's information up-to-date. | | UpdatePiece(...) | UpdatePiece(self, piece:int, numPieces:int, ghostLevels:int, | extents:(int, int, int, int, int, int)=...) -> int | C++: virtual int UpdatePiece(int piece, int numPieces, | int ghostLevels, const int extents[6]=nullptr) | | Convenience method to update an algorithm after passing requests | to its first output port. See documentation for Update(int port, | vtkInformationVector* requests) for details. Supports piece and | extent (optional) requests. | | UpdateProgress(...) | UpdateProgress(self, amount:float) -> None | C++: void UpdateProgress(double amount) | | Update the progress of the process object. If a ProgressMethod | exists, executes it. Then set the Progress ivar to amount. The | parameter amount should range between (0,1). | | UpdateTimeStep(...) | UpdateTimeStep(self, time:float, piece:int=-1, numPieces:int=1, | ghostLevels:int=0, extents:(int, int, int, int, int, int)=...) | -> int | C++: virtual int UpdateTimeStep(double time, int piece=-1, | int numPieces=1, int ghostLevels=0, | const int extents[6]=nullptr) | | Convenience method to update an algorithm after passing requests | to its first output port. See documentation for Update(int port, | vtkInformationVector* requests) for details. Supports time, piece | (optional) and extent (optional) requests. | | UpdateWholeExtent(...) | UpdateWholeExtent(self) -> None | C++: virtual void UpdateWholeExtent() | | Bring this algorithm's outputs up-to-date. | | UsesGarbageCollector(...) | UsesGarbageCollector(self) -> bool | C++: bool UsesGarbageCollector() override; | | Participate in garbage collection. | | __call__(self, /, *args, **kwargs) | Call self as a function. | | __rrshift__(self, value, /) | Return value>>self. | | __rshift__(self, value, /) | Return self>>value. | | update(...) | This method updates the pipeline connected to this algorithm | and returns an Output object with an output property.
