[Plugin] Purge Folder of SKPs

halroach

Would there be a way to automate the Purge command to a whole folder full of SKP models? Either with an external script or from within Sketchup...

Ideas?

To use open one of the SKPs in the folder to be processed.
Type TIG.batchpurge in the Ruby Console... All of the SKPs are processed in turn and purged, a report is shown for each in the Console... Use will care - it's not 'undoable'...

TIG, could you please rewrite sketchup, multithread it and make it 64 bit capable - no hurry, whenever you have 5 mins...!!

ODM

very cool.I tested and found model.save not is supporting chinese filenames and path, such as:

Sketchup.open_file "/Users/liuzhenyi/Desktop/中文/测试.skp"
-> true
model = Sketchup.active_model
model.save "/Users/liuzhenyi/Desktop/中文/测试.skp"
-> nil

TIG

Some aspects of Ruby 1.8~ that ships with Sketchup fail when presented with Unicode characters in names/paths - like File... operations, which are used here to get/set file-names/paths etc etc... So that's probably it...

TIG

I've recast the code to avoid using 'tr' BUT I fear it might still fail as it must use File.delete(), File.exist?() and File.rename() to work and these might fail with Unicode names/paths ??
Please get the code again and retry...

ODM

Still not available, the Chinese path and file name.


model = Sketchup.active_model
path=model.path
path1=File.expand_path(model.path)
path2=model.path.tr("\\","/")

path.class #-> string
path1.class #-> string
path2.class #-> string

path,path1 and path2, all class are string, all value are "/Users/liuzhenyi/Desktop/中文/测试.skp"
so,path=path1=path2.

{File.expand_path(model.path)} same as the original {model.path.tr("\","/") or model.path}

File.delete(), File.exist?() and File.rename() , I tested ,not supported chinese.

I use google search, found it difficult to support.

Thanks TIG. hope you have a good solution.

TIG

As I suspected the File.xxx() methods you listed require ASCII character names/paths - yours are Unicode... The methods are necessary for the tool to complete successfully, so until some future version of Sketchup ports with v1.9+ Ruby we are stumped.

sorry to dig up an old thread... but......

i just tried this, and it rocks, my only request/question

Is it possible to do make it include subfolders?

Thanks for the help!
