[Paraview] VTK-Python script or Paraview server manager script?

[Olumide]

Hello,

Being a bit of a VTK/Paraview newbie, I'm having a little difficulty 
selecting the right tool for the job. I've got a number of polygonal 
primitives; lines, spheres, cylinders etc, in a 3d application and I 
would like to export and view these objects in Paraview. Because the 3d 
app is scriptable, I can write a plugin to export the primitives as VTK 
geometry data, but I shrink at the thought of handling low level 
operations that would be required. Therefore I'm considering another 
option namely: to have the 3d app write a VTK-Python or 
Paraview-Servermanager script based on the primitives in the scene. The 
problem now, is which scripting technique is better for the task, 
bearing in mind that what I would like to do is to view the primitives 
in Paraview.

Initially, I started out writing a Paraview-Servermanager script, but I 
later realized that a VTK-Python script might do the job as well, _if_ 
VTK-Python scripts can export programmatically created scene data.

Please advise.

Thanks.
