Render Blender 3D scenes in the cloud (using Docker)

A simple web service that renders a Blender 3D scene with custom text.

Run with docker run -p 8080:8080 steren/blender-as-a-service

API

URL parameters:

• text: The text to render, defaults to HELLO.
• scene: the name of the .blend file to render (without the extension), defaults to basic, other supported values are outrun and outrun-filter.

Example: /?text=OUTRUN&scene=outrun

Bring your own 3D scene:

1. Create a Blender scene, if your scene contains a text object with the name Text, the text will be replaced with the value of the text parameter.
