Hello,

I have some matlab files I’d like to get into PV. Initially, the data is quite 
simple: sphere centers, radii, color attribute (a few 100K spheres). In the 
past, I’ve manually converted the files into .vtk formats using Python w/ scipy 
to load/parse the .mat files. But I’d like to avoid creating additional files 
and just read the .mat files directly.

I *think* I’d like to do this w/ Python still (but without creating files), if 
that’s an option. Basically, I’d welcome suggestions for the simplest approach, 
at least initially. I’m not terribly concerned about the “slowness” of Python 
reading/converting the .mat files.

Using PV 5.4.1. And the solution needs to be easily adopted by others who will 
be using PV.

I’m sure there are concerns that I’ve side-stepped, e.g. would I ever want to 
use it in client/server mode, etc.

I’ve seen https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Plugin_HowTo 
<https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Plugin_HowTo> and I was also curious if a 
“Programmable Source” would be an option. 

thanks! (and it’s nice to re-join the community after a long absence)
