Bitub TRex Dynamo Plugin

TRex is collection of utility libraries of model transformation and deployment tasks in the AEC domain. Internally it's using i.e. Xbim libraries to read, transform and write IFC model files.

Currently supports Dynamo 2.12+.

Installation of binary releases

TRex is collection of utility libraries of model transformation and deployment tasks in the AEC domain. Install a recent version of Dynamo and extract the TRex release to the

~/AppData/Roaming/Dynamo/Dynamo Core or ~/AppData/Roaming/Dynamo/Dynamo Revit packages sub folder. Keep the entire package rooted by a single parent folder (i.e. TRex).

Building from development/master branch

The current implementation is under heavy development. It's not guranteed that the latest dev head will seemlessly work and compile. If you like to build your own relase, check out the dev branch run restore packages in Visual Studio and run a clean build.

In general, the master branch is the best option to run your own build.

Dependencies

Build configuration and impacts

Each build will generate a package under ./DeployedPackages (see DeployPath).

  • Debug will run a debug build and copy plugin over to the predefined Dynamo solution directory.
  • Beta will run a debug build
  • Release will run a release build with documentation extraction added (for Dynamo help)

Currently only x64 is supported for Assimp and Xbim. If you like to generate x86 native libraries feel free to modify the build configuration.
