Writing files using the Command Line Interface

[hvw-001]

Hey!
I'm trying use the Command Line Interface to interact with Cloudcompare. There is not much documentation, but I already figured out how to load files:

CC = pycc.GetCmdLineInstance()
gso = CC.GlobalShiftOptions()
CC.importFile(path, gso)
clouds = CC.clouds()  # CLCloudDescVector
cloudDesc = clouds[0]  # CLCloudDesc
pointcloud: pycc.ccPointCloud = cloudDesc.pc

Now, i'd like to put clouds into the list to save, but I have no real idea how. Following code does not work. Without the clouds.append(pycc.CLCloudDesc(pc)) line, it saves the files loaded from file earlier:

xs = np.arange(0.0, 5.0, 0.1, pycc.PointCoordinateType)
ys = np.ones(len(xs), pycc.PointCoordinateType) * 18.5
zs = np.ones(len(xs), pycc.PointCoordinateType) * 17.33
pc = pycc.ccPointCloud(xs, ys, zs) # build a point cloud
clouds.append(pycc.CLCloudDesc(pc)) #??? 
CC.saveCloud(".bin", True, outputpath)

>>>TypeError: pycc_runtime.CLCloudDesc: No constructor defined!

I tried looking in the code, but the PYBIND stuff is way beyond what I understand.
Is there a quick example somewhere I could look at?

Thanks!

Hello, have you tried the SaveToFile method shown in this example ? https://tmontaigu.github.io/CloudCompare-PythonRuntime/examples.html?highlight=savetofile#loading-a-file

as workaround for now
