[Plugin] ComponentReporter++ v1.2

Hi TIG, thanks for the plugin!
Whether it is possible to copy the report in a clipboard? But only "Instances+Report"!
It is sometimes better than the CSV file.

Hi Tig, I'm trying to get this to work, reporting the components only if the dynamic attribute "report" is true. After a little experimentation, I think I should be changing line 135 to read

	    inlist.push(c) if ((c.typename=="ComponentInstance") && (c.attribute_dictionaries['report'] == 'TRUE'))

But that creates no results (I do have a DC in my model with the attribute 'report' set to 'TRUE')

Could you point out where I'm going wrong?

TIG · 19 Nov 2014, 12:02

Should you not be looking at the c.definition rather than the instance ?
Also are you sure that's the attribute_dictionary name ?
Perhaps ' dynamic_attributes' ??
Try this Ruby Console snippet on a selected DC instance to see what I mean:
Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].definition.attribute_dictionaries.each{|d|puts;p d.name;puts;d.each_pair{|k,v|puts"#{k} = #{v}"}}

oceanembers · 19 Nov 2014, 13:56

oh I see! I completely misunderstood attribute_dictionaries.

		dict = c.attribute_dictionaries['dynamic_attributes']
	    inlist.push(c) if ((c.typename=="ComponentInstance") && (dict['report'] == 1))

This works great, thanks Tig.

Hi TIG
About "ComponentReporter++.rb"
is theres some way the plugin including columns like Lenght X, Lenght y and Lenght Z of the box ?:
im new in rubys, sorry.

DEFN-NAME | COUNT | DESCRIPTION | X | Y | Z| GUID |

Any help i will apreciate.

Of course.
This is just an 'example' script.
Get the group/component-instance .bounds and get .width/height/depth [lenX/lenY/lenZ]
The add the extra columns into the CSV and include the three values .to_s etc...

Ok.
I will try to do it
I was trying to make a list of material of framing walls but did not have the length of the studs and ledgers, i'm more familiar with the language of AutoLISP for AutoCAD, so I'm starting to learn the language of the rubys, any suggestions to learn ruby?
thanks.

Is it possible to find and retrieve information from attributes in nested components?
ideally I would like to achieve a plugin like "TIG-exportDCs2csv[2].rb" that is able to Exports all Selected DCs' data into a file BUT FROM "NESTED" (or child) COMPONENTS AS WELL.
Anyone can help with this?

sjdorst · 18 Jan 2016, 23:27

@Tig,

Can this plugin report current Attribute values AND formulas (if any) side by side?

If yes - Great!

If not, please consider this a suggested improvement, as well as a request for information - should you know of another plugin that provides this functionality.

Thanks in advance!

Steve

Hi, TIG Thanks for this plugin.
can I get this (Please see attached image) information in one and a simple excel sheet?
Thanks again.

This is old code.
It's for DCs only.
It was posted as an example, for you to edit as you wish.
To add a 'header' simply create the first line before the other rows.
Then adjust the units to report in feet and change the code to report the instance count rather than material...
So from line#40 change it to read like this:

    data=["Name#{sep}Width#{sep}Depth#{sep}Height#{sep}Quantity"]
    insts.each{|inst|
      defn=inst.definition
      name=defn.name.tr(sep, "_")
      lenx=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes", "lenx", 0).to_f.to_feet.to_s
      leny=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes", "leny", 0).to_f.to_feet.to_s
      lenz=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes", "lenz", 0).to_f.to_feet.to_s
      quan=defn.instances.length.to_s
      dat = "#{name}#{sep}#{lenx}#{sep}#{leny}#{sep}#{lenz}#{sep}#{quan}"
      data << dat
    }

Thanks a lot this worked perfectly fine.

Hi TIG, I stumbled on this plugin as the 2020 pro version generate report does not give the option of exporting the length of a welded curve as an option. I can see the length in the entity info when I click on a curve so I assume that data can be extracted. Do you know if this is possible to do? I started to study basic ruby but if this is not a possibility then I will just have to wait for sketchup pro to provide that in the future.

mozarov · 25 Sept 2021, 10:28

Hi TIG, Thank you very much for the plugin. Is there a way to get all DCs reported within another DC?
I've attached dynamic drawer model as an example. I'd like to get report of nested parts of a drawer.
Thanks again.

Dynamic drawer 210925.skp

TIG · 25 Sept 2021, 15:05

If you edit the component-instance the nested instances should become accessible ?
Then your reports will be based of the instances in each nested collection...

mozarov · 27 Sept 2021, 12:32

TIG thank you for quick answer. I have named component instances (ie right, left, bottom part etc.) inside dynamic drawer component but still get report of drawers outer dimensions only. I am trying to get report of inner parts of the drawer. Like your ComponentReporter++ cycles through all components and gives report of all components within other component. I would like to get same report of all mined nested DC parts of a DC drawer. Thanks again.

mozarov · 12 Feb 2022, 09:54

Please help me out TIG. I am banging my head to a wall for months now. How to make your code cycle through nested DCs ant get their LenX, LenY, LenZ, other attributes to csv?
Plaease help, I am stuck.

Dynamic drawer 220210.skp

TIG · 12 Feb 2022, 11:44

Doesn't my earlier posts about DCs cover this ?
https://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=659662#p659662
Edit the object to access the DCs within it ?

mozarov · 12 Feb 2022, 12:46

Sorry I don't explain it right. Be selecting a drawer I get report of drawers "parent" attributes. Please see the attached picture.
What I am trying to get is DC childrens report, like on the second screenshot.
Please help me out.

Hello TIG
I have edited your code and it exports all DCs of the model. How to make it export only selected DCs?
I think I have to write ss = model.selection line somewhere. But where should I put it?
Thank you for your help.

=begin
(c) TIG 2011
Script&#058;
TIG-exportDCs2csv.rb
Type;
  TIG.exportDCs2csv
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.
Version;
1.0 20111104 First issue.
1.1 20111221 DCs customized.
