# golden_spiral_extrude
Extrudes a 2D shape along the path of a golden spiral.
When using this module, you should use points to represent the 2D shape. If your 2D shape is not solid, indexes of triangles are required. See [sweep](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-sweep.html) for details.
## Parameters
- `shape_pts` : A list of points represent a shape. See the example below.
- `from` : The nth Fibonacci number you wanna start from.
- `to` : The nth Fibonacci number you wanna go to.
- `point_distance` : Distance between two points on the path.
- `rt_dir` : `"CT_CLK"` for counterclockwise. `"CLK"` for clockwise. The default value is `"CT_CLK"`.
- `twist` : The number of degrees of through which the shape is extruded.
- `scale` : Scales the 2D shape by this value over the length of the extrusion. Scale can be a scalar or a vector.
- `triangles` : `"SOLID"` (default), `"HOLLOW"` or user-defined indexes. See [sweep](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-sweep.html) for details.
## Examples
use <golden_spiral_extrude.scad>;
shape_pts = [
[2, -10],
[2, 10],
[-2, 10],
[-2, -10]
];
golden_spiral_extrude(
shape_pts,
from = 3,
to = 10,
point_distance = 1,
rt_dir = "CLK",
twist = 180,
scale = 0.1
);
