Using .stl export plugin through Ruby API

Thank you! I’ve looked into both options. The second option unfortunately won’t work for me because I am using Sketchup Make 2017, which will never be updated. I tried out Sketchup Free, which has STL export as a native plugin. However, Sketchup Free does not seem to have a ruby console, so I can’t use it for my project.

I’m a little unsure how to proceed with the first option you laid out. I’m very new to ruby (just started learning several weeks ago), and I have never used github before. I tried looking at the source code for the file “exporter.rb,” but I am unsure of what constants/methods to look for and how to use them. Do you have any suggestions?

My apologies if I come across as rather ignorant. Have to start somewhere.
