* Use operator's poll method to ensure correct execution * Add utilities to get active collection item * Minor fixes zombie code list comprehensions typos cleanup tooltips, descriptions ensure file extension in folder operator use custom UI List instead of generic one ensure active object stays the same after operator execution use passed context instead of bpy * Jump through hoops to not display empty dynamic enums * Group mesh calculation methods in helper module If not using bmesh, the polygon selection status is updated only when getting out of Edit mode. Using bmesh we can get the values in realtime * Remove unused arg name in dosctring
ifcpatch
ifcpatch is a little CLI utility and library that lets you run a predetermined
modification on an IFC file, known as a patch recipe. This is great for
distributing little scripts that need to modify an IFC to users who don't know
how to code or aren't interested in knowing the details.
Installation
ifcpatch is a simple Python module. No compilation or packaging is necessary.
Just download the ifcpatch directory and add it to your Python site packages.
Then, you can run it as a CLI like:
$ python -m ifcpatch
If you want something more Unix-like ...
$ alias ifcpatch='python -m ifcpatch'
Alternatively, you can package it as a distributable.
$ python make.py
$ ./dist/ifcpatch
Usage
Usage is like any other CLI app.
$ ifcpatch -h
usage: __main__.py [-h] -i INPUT [-o OUTPUT] -r RECIPE [-l LOG]
[-a ARGUMENTS [ARGUMENTS ...]]
Patches IFC files to fix badly formatted data
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
The IFC file to patch
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
The output file to save the patched IFC
-r RECIPE, --recipe RECIPE
Name of the recipe to use when patching
-l LOG, --log LOG Specify a log file
-a ARGUMENTS [ARGUMENTS ...], --arguments ARGUMENTS [ARGUMENTS ...]
Specify custom arguments to the patch recipe
Exactly how it is run depends on the recipe. A recipe may require zero or more
arguments which are specific to the recipe. Here's an example which runs the
ExtractElements recipe, which, as the same suggests, extracts out elements.
This recipe expects one argument, which uses the IFC Query
syntax.
In this example, we'll extract out all IfcWall elements.
$ ifcpatch -i input.ifc -o output.ifc -r ExtractElements -a ".IfcWall"
You can also use it as a library.
import ifcpatch
ifcpatch.execute({
"input": "input.ifc",
"output": "output.ifc",
"recipe": "ExtractElements",
"log": "ifcpatch.log",
"arguments": [".IfcWall"],
})
