[Plugin] ComponentReporter++ v1.2

TIG · 23 Jan 2012, 11:03

IF you want to use the nested component containing the linear info then you can readily add extra code into another column in the CSV. OR make a separate CSV report on linear info.
Here's how to do it separately.
The tool runs***, its code finds all components in the model with instances having a name containing 'hedge' and thereby their nested component giving the linear info drawn as a line or curve.
It takes all edges in this nested component and totals their length.
It writes a CSV listing the instance-name [e.g. 'c.hedge'], instance's-layer, definition-name, linear total [in meters]
Sorted in order, with a header line and a total of the minear-meterage.
Copy/paste this whole set of code into a new file [Notepad.exe] that you make in the Plugins folder named ' TIG-hedgelengths.rb'

require 'sketchup.rb'
module TIG
 ###
 unless file_loaded?(File.basename(__FILE__))
   UI.menu("Plugins").add_item("Hedges Length CSV"){self.hedgelengths()}
 end
 file_loaded(File.basename(__FILE__))
 ###
 def self.hedgelengths()
  model=Sketchup.active_model
  if model.path.empty?
    dir=Dir.pwd
	tit="Untitled"
  else
    dir=File.dirname(model.path)
	tit=model.title
  end
  ###
  rows=[]
  model.definitions.each{|d|
    next if d.group? or d.image?
	d.instances.each{|i|
	  txt=""
	  if i.name=~/[Hh]edge/
		txt << i.name+","
		txt << i.layer.name+","
		txt << d.name+","
		lin=0
		d.entities.each{|c|
		  if c.class==Sketchup;;ComponentInstance
		    c.definition.entities.each{|e|
			  if e.class==Sketchup;;Edge
			    lin+=e.length
			  end
			}
		  end
		}
		txt << sprintf("%.3f", lin.to_m) ### 3d.p.
	  end
	  rows << txt
	}
  }
  rows.dup.each{|e| rows.delete(e) if e.empty? }
  rows.sort!
  ## add total
  rows=["INST-NAME,INST-LAYER,DEFN,LIN.METERS"]+rows
  tot=rows.length.to_s
  rows << "\n,,TOTAL,=SUM(D2;D#{tot})"
  ###
  csv=File.join(dir, tit+"_HedgesLength.csv").tr("\\","/")
  ###
  begin
     file=File.open(csv,"w")
  rescue### trap if open
     UI.messagebox("Report;\n\n  "+csv+"\n\nCannot be written - it's probably already open.\nClose it and try making the Report again...\n\nExiting...")
	 return nil
  end
  ###
  rows.each{|row| file.puts(row) }
  file.close
  ###
  UI.messagebox("Report;\n"+csv+"\nWritten.")
  UI.openURL("file;///"+csv)
  ###
 end
end

***Usage: either type TIG.hedgelengths in the Ruby Console... OR more easily use the Plugins menu item...

Thanks TIG, that's simply amazing Elegant and simple.

Now thanks to your plugins I've got the basis for a complete plant counter (areas, individual plants and hedges and shelterbelts - Sketchup has just become a LOT more useful), thanks again.

output from TIG-hedge.lengths.rb

Hi Tig,
Great plugin - thanks. Ive used this on several jobs now and wonder if you can help me to make a few tweaks. I've been trying to use this to count components in a selection. I know that the plugin exports 3 csv documents and was wondering if you can help me to tailor the script to get the count Im after - Im afraid Im a total noob to Ruby but am more than happy to have a play with it if you can offer a little advice.

Id like to be able to generate a count for eithera whole model or for a selection within the model. I know that the script already generates a count for a selection but I'd like to be able to summarize items with the same name -giving me a total number.

I also wonder if its possible to only display the component name and the count and none of the other information (guid, description, material etc). Im trying to reduce the amount of work I need to do to tidy up the csv files that are generated.

Ive been playing with this whenever I get some spare time but would love a little advice.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

Sam

Unfortunately I am having errors in counts for nested components...
example...
3 component 1 in model
1 component 2 inside component 1...

Report returns 3 counts of 1 and 1 count of 2 in stead of 3 counts of 1 and 3 counts of 2

Counts in instances report are correct.

Counts in instances report are correct.
There ARE 3 instances of compo1.
There IS 1 instance of compo2.
You might 'see' 3 of compo2, but these are actually three representations on the same object.
The different reporting formats are a way of covering various bases...

If you want it to somehow report things differently, then rework the code as you wish...
It is 'open source' after all...

Omarian · 4 Apr 2013, 07:53

TIG,

This is similar to a problem I am having. I want to call up the running length of walls at base (where Y axis would be zero, and which would exclude door openings)or ceiling (which would give total lengths for molding etc). Is it possible to convert the above reporting script into a DCfunction in much the same way as you had created the DCvolume function? You may need specific functions that would take only the sum of lengths of the edges of the outer or inner faces of the wall at the base(ie excluding doors) and at the ceiling (which would include door openings).

TIG · 4 Apr 2013, 09:34

It wouldn't be so easy...

BUT you can write any custom function you like to add to a DC...

So let's say you want the perimeter of all faces that have a normal==Z_AXIS.reverse [facing down - i,e, the bottom of a ceiling slab] inside a DC you do something like:

require('sketchup')
require('dynamiccomponents.rb')
if defined?($dc_observers)
  # Open Dynamic Component Functions (V1) class, only if DC extension is active
class DCFunctionsV1
 protected
 # return the perimeter (in inches) of face.normal==Z_AXIS.reverse
 if not DCFunctionsV1.method_defined?(;perimeter)
  def perimeter(a) # Usage as DC function; =perimeter()
	se = @source_entity
	if se.is_a?(Sketchup;;Group)
		allfaces = se.entities.grep(Sketchup;;Face)
	else #component-instance
		allfaces = se.definition.entities.grep(Sketchup;;Face)
	end
	faces=[]
	allfaces.each{|face| faces << face if face.normal==Z_AXIS.reverse }
	tr = se.transformation
	xs = tr.xscale #***
	ys = tr.yscale #***
	peri = 0.0
	faces.each{|face|
		tlen = 0.0
		face.outer_loop.edges.each{|e|
			elen = e.length # this is an unscaled length
			slen = elen*(1) #*** adjust for any X/Y scaling in (1) if needed ?
			tlen += slen
		}
		peri += tlen
	}
    return peri
  end
 end 
end#class
end#if

This takes no notice of any scaling applied to the DC object, reporting the original perimeter...

Thanks a million, it worked like a charm.

I only need The only modification I would like this plugin would measure diagonal objects properly, instead of bounding box ... and to work with groups also...

in the Ruby Console to run it.
Exports all DCs is the model with a Name,LenX,LenY,LenZ,Layer[s]...
'CSV' file - in the model's folder and named after the model thus:
ModelName.skp >>> ModelNameDCs.csv
If a new model is unsaved the current directory receives the new file.
All Layers used in the DC are listed by name and visible ones marked
thus >>LayerName<<
Edit sep="," if something other than separating comma is desired e.g. ';'
Make sep="\t" if a TSV file is desired and change ext="csv" to ext="tsv".
It uses the current Model Units.

I was unable to generate the report. My model is in decimal> millimeters.
The dynamic component is in cm. Can you tell me what the problem is.

(This returns ruby console)

Do you have ',' set as your decimal-separator, instead of '.' ?
This might cause issues ??

TIG

I did 2 tests

drawing from scratch, I think the componet, add option LenX leny, lenz, the report is generated normally.
If this same component attributes modify a component value (eg 10 cm to 20 cm lenz), then display the error of failing to convert ...

thanks

pd. I have a component I created and I'm doubling, changing their values to create furniture.
This report would be a solution to export cuts grain orientation panel

TIG

With separator "," error occurs.
With separator "." export the file, but does not make mm

As coidgo would have to call from the menu?

It would be so?

require 'sketchup.rb'

UI.menu("PlugIns").add_item("Tig Export") {
exportDCs2csv
}

Thanks

TIG · 15 Nov 2013, 18:02

The units are probably arriving in SketchUp base units == inches.
So either multiply your columns in Excel by 25.4 to make mm OR when you a 'length' in inches do something like
sprintf("%.1f", length.to_mm)
so 1.0" >> 25.4 ?

Thanks for your help.
the ComponentReporter + + plugins I reported in mm but axes x, y, z
You could modify this plugin to me that report LenX leny, lenz,(dynamic attributes)+ material, definition, of what is selected?
in one csv.

Thanks again, my knowledge of programming are very beginner

thank you very much, works perfect.
Just an observation. If doubled within skp component and modify its dimensions (eg. LenX) reports all copies with the same value

ud can have the report grouped plugin components, adding the name of the group in a new column?
