[Plugin] ComponentReporter++ v1.2

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?

@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!

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

Edit this part:

model = Sketchup.active_model
defs=model.definitions

to limits defs to those selected DC instances

model = Sketchup.active_model
#defs=model.definitions
ins = model.selection.grep(Sketchup;;ComponentInstance)
defs=[]
ins.each{|i|
  next unless i.definition.attribute_dictionary("dynamic_attributes")
  defs << i.definition
}
defs.uniq

There's probably a more elegant way to do this, but I'm trying to reuse the old code with minimal editing

Hello TIG
I have changed the piece of code you gave me but now it doesnt get nested childrens DC attributes. Only selected Parents cabinet attributes are reported. My dynamic cabinet has nested dynamic parts which contains DC attributes RepL, RepW and so on. Please help, just one tiny step left.
Here is the code I have now.

	model = Sketchup.active_model
	#defs=model.definitions
	ins = model.selection.grep(Sketchup;;ComponentInstance)
	defs=[]
	ins.each{|i|
	next unless i.definition.attribute_dictionary("dynamic_attributes")
	defs << i.definition
	}
	defs.uniq
		
    dcs=[]
    defs.each{|dc|
      next if not dc.attribute_dictionary("dynamic_attributes")
      dcs << dc
    }
    if not dcs
      UI.messagebox("No DCs were available.\nExiting.")
     return nil
    end#if
    insts=[]
    dcs.each{|dc|insts << dc.instances}
    insts.flatten!
    insts.uniq!
    insts.compact!
    data=[]
    insts.each{|inst|
      defn=inst.definition
      #name=defn.name.tr(sep,"_")
      repname=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","repname",0).to_s
     repmat=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","repmat",0).to_s
     rept=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","rept",0).to_s
     repl=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","repl",0).to_s
     repw=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","repw",0).to_s
     reppvc=defn.get_attribute("dynamic_attributes","reppvc",0).to_s
      dat=repname+sep+repmat+sep+rept+sep+repl+sep+repw+sep+reppvc
                
      data << dat
    }

You asked for selected DCs I gave you that !
Now you want any DCs inside the selected DCs ??
That's much more convoluted.

You could find all DCs in the definitions that have instances, then reduce that list by testing for those in the selection, OR those that have a DC instance that has a parent that's the definition of one of the nested DC instances...
But as I said it complicated and beyond simple advice at the moment...
Perhaps someone else can chip in while I' very busy on other things...

Hi TIG
Thanks for your help. It just shows how little I understand abaut the task. May I ask for your permission to post this code somewhere else on the internet?
Besides if it isn't too hard I could pay for solving this problem. Please contact me if you interested.
Thanks again for your help.
