Hi all,
I was using Houdini 19.5.682 apprentice version for a project and came across the geometry node-- Particle fluid surface, that creates a fine mesh for my use case. I am wondering if I could get a system executable of a file that takes an input point cloud and creates this mesh based on varying parameters (Voxel, particle separation, influence scale...etc). Is there a way I could get a programmatic interface to build this geometry? Highly appreciate any feedback or help. I can upgrade to the licensed version if it helps me meet the need.

You can use `hou` module in Python (or a `hython` executable) to do any operations you can normally do in Houdini GUI using Python, meaning you can read your point cloud data, process it with any tools Houdini has to offer, and output your processed geometry into a file.
