# ifcquery
A CLI tool for querying and inspecting IFC building models. All output is
structured JSON (or human-readable text), making it easy to pipe into other
tools or scripts.
## Installation
```bash
pip install ifcquery
```
Requires `ifcopenshell`. The `clash` subcommand additionally requires the
IfcOpenShell C++ geometry bindings (`ifcopenshell.geom`).
## Usage
```
ifcquery <ifc_file> <command> [options] [--format json|text]
```
The `--format` flag controls output. Default is `json`; use `text` for
indented human-readable output.
## Subcommands
### summary
Get a model overview: schema version, entity counts, and project info.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc summary
```
```json
{
"schema": "IFC4",
"total_entities": 1847,
"project": {
"id": 1,
"name": "Office Building",
"description": null
},
"types": {
"IfcWall": 42,
"IfcSlab": 12,
"IfcWindow": 36
}
}
```
### tree
Display the spatial hierarchy from IfcProject down through sites, buildings,
storeys, and their contained elements.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc tree
```
```json
{
"id": 1,
"type": "IfcProject",
"name": "Office Building",
"children": [
{
"id": 2,
"type": "IfcSite",
"name": "Default Site",
"children": [
{
"id": 3,
"type": "IfcBuilding",
"name": "Main Building",
"children": [
{
"id": 4,
"type": "IfcBuildingStorey",
"name": "Ground Floor",
"elements": [
{"id": 10, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall001"},
{"id": 11, "type": "IfcSlab", "name": "Floor001"}
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
```
### info
Get detailed information about a specific element by step ID.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc info 10
ifcquery model.ifc info '#10'
```
Returns attributes, property sets, type relationship, material assignment,
spatial container, and placement matrix.
```json
{
"id": 10,
"type": "IfcWall",
"attributes": {
"Name": "Wall001",
"Description": null,
"ObjectType": "LOADBEARING"
},
"property_sets": {
"Pset_WallCommon": {
"IsExternal": true,
"FireRating": "2HR"
}
},
"element_type": {"id": 50, "type": "IfcWallType", "name": "Standard"},
"material": {"id": 60, "type": "IfcMaterial", "name": "Concrete"},
"container": {"id": 4, "type": "IfcBuildingStorey", "name": "Ground Floor"},
"placement": [
[1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 5.0],
[0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0],
[0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0],
[0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0]
]
}
```
### select
Filter elements using the ifcopenshell selector syntax.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc select 'IfcWall'
ifcquery model.ifc select 'IfcWall, IfcSlab'
```
```json
[
{"id": 10, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall001"},
{"id": 11, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall002"},
{"id": 20, "type": "IfcSlab", "name": "Floor001"}
]
```
Results are sorted by ID.
### relations
Show all relationships for an element, organized by category: hierarchy,
children, type relationships, groups, systems, material, and connections.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc relations 10
```
```json
{
"id": 10,
"type": "IfcWall",
"name": "Wall001",
"hierarchy": {
"parent": {"id": 4, "type": "IfcBuildingStorey", "name": "Ground Floor"},
"container": {"id": 4, "type": "IfcBuildingStorey", "name": "Ground Floor"}
},
"children": {
"openings": [{"id": 30, "type": "IfcOpeningElement", "name": "Opening01"}]
},
"type_relationship": {
"type_of": {"id": 50, "type": "IfcWallType", "name": "Standard"}
},
"material": {"id": 60, "type": "IfcMaterial", "name": "Concrete"}
}
```
Empty categories are omitted from output.
Use `--traverse up` to walk the spatial hierarchy from the element up to
IfcProject:
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc relations 10 --traverse up
```
```json
[
{"id": 10, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall001"},
{"id": 4, "type": "IfcBuildingStorey", "name": "Ground Floor"},
{"id": 3, "type": "IfcBuilding", "name": "Main Building"},
{"id": 2, "type": "IfcSite", "name": "Default Site"},
{"id": 1, "type": "IfcProject", "name": "Office Building"}
]
```
### clash
Check a single element for geometric intersections and clearance violations
against other elements.
```bash
ifcquery model.ifc clash 10
ifcquery model.ifc clash 10 --clearance 0.5
ifcquery model.ifc clash 10 --scope all --tolerance 0.001
```
Options:
- `--clearance <meters>` -- minimum clearance distance to check
- `--tolerance <meters>` -- intersection tolerance (default: 0.002)
- `--scope {storey,all}` -- check against same-storey elements or all elements (default: storey)
```json
{
"element": {"id": 10, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall001"},
"scope": "storey",
"pass": false,
"checks": {
"intersection": {
"pass": false,
"tolerance": 0.002,
"clashes": [
{
"element": {"id": 11, "type": "IfcWall", "name": "Wall002"},
"type": "intersection",
"distance": 0.0,
"p1": [2.5, 2.5, 1.5],
"p2": [2.5, 2.5, 1.5]
}
]
},
"clearance": {
"pass": true,
"clearance": 0.5,
"clashes": []
}
}
}
```
Requires the IfcOpenShell C++ geometry bindings.
