New Features, Tools

• Preflight Checks: pyRevit Extensions can now include a checks/ directory with python scripts engine in *_check.py and implementing a Preflight Check type. These checks will automatically show up in the new Preflight Checks tool

  • PRs Merged #1103 #1135 #1129 #1125 #1123 #1014 #975

• Custom IronPython Engine: pyRevit now includes a custom IronPython engine. This engine is NOT the default for this release, so we have a chance to get it tested, but it will be the default soon. All previous engines are still supported. The custom engine provides a solution to all the IronPython conflicts and import wpf errors hopefully. To use this, go to pyRevit settings and switch the IronPython engine under Core Settings to this new custom engine, or use the pyRevit CLI to attach using this engine pyrevit attach master default --installed

• Added New doc-updater hook: This hook is executed every time a model is updated. See example here this example hook, automatically updates the height of new walls to 5 when they are created

• Added New Tool (#883: Tool to Clear BIM360 Collaboration Cache): Find under Wipe tools

• Added ReKey buttons to Keynote Manager (#701: Keynote Manager Needs Keynote-Edit-KEY Button): Both categories and keynotes can be rekeyed now

Breaking Changes

• There are no .run extensions anymore. Run script can now be included inside any extension under the commands/ directory and ending in *_command.py. pyRevit CLI when batch processing using pyrevit run can find these commands. See example here
