# ifctester
|
|
|
|
With **IfcTester**, you can author and read **Information Delivery Specification** - **IDS** - files and validate your IFC models against IDS to see if your model is compliant. After the audit, you can generate reports in console, as a web page, JSON or BCF file. It works from the command line, as a web app, or as a library.
|
|
|
|
## How to use it
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import ifcopenshell
|
|
from ifctester import ids, reporter
|
|
|
|
|
|
# create new IDS
|
|
my_ids = ids.Ids(title="My IDS")
|
|
|
|
# add specification to it
|
|
my_spec = ids.Specification(name="My first specification")
|
|
my_spec.applicability.append(ids.Entity(name="IFCWALL"))
|
|
property = ids.Property(
|
|
name="IsExternal",
|
|
value="TRUE",
|
|
propertySet="Pset_WallCommon",
|
|
datatype="IfcBoolean",
|
|
uri="https://identifier.buildingsmart.org/uri/.../prop/LoadBearing",
|
|
instructions="Walls need to be load bearing.",
|
|
minOccurs=1,
|
|
maxOccurs="unbounded")
|
|
my_spec.requirements.append(property)
|
|
my_ids.specifications.append(my_spec)
|
|
|
|
# Save such IDS to file
|
|
result = my_ids.to_xml("SampleIDS.xml")
|
|
|
|
# open IFC file:
|
|
my_ifc = ifcopenshell.open("MyIfcModel.ifc")
|
|
|
|
# validate IFC model against IDS requirements:
|
|
my_ids.validate(my_ifc)
|
|
|
|
# show results:
|
|
reporter.Console(my_ids).report()
|
|
```
