ArchipackObject¶
ArchipackObject base class provide functions to support “copy to selected” and easy access to datablock.
- filter(o) : return boolean, ensure object contains your datablock eg : archipack_window.filter(o) may use it in poll
- datablock(o) : return datablock or None, ensure object contains your datablock eg : d = archipack_window.datablock(o)
- find_in_selection(context, auto_update=True) : store context and find current instance in selection. return object or None. Wont store context and always return None if auto_update is False
- restore_context(context) : restore context - active + selection
Implementation¶
- PropertyGroup MUST inherits from ArchipackObject
- PropertyGroup MUST use archipack_ prefix and you MUST use the same name for bpy.types.Mesh.property
- PropertyGroup MUST be registered as bpy.types.Mesh property to handle alt + d
Base object PropertyGroup¶
class archipack_door(ArchipackObject, Manipulable, PropertyGroup):
...
def update(self, context):
o = self.find_in_selection(context, self.auto_update)
if o is None:
return
# update object's mesh (see bmesh_utils as reference)
bmed.buildmesh(context, o, self.verts, self.faces)
# restore context
self.resore_context(context)
Register module¶
def register():
bpy.utils.register_class(archipack_door)
Mesh.archipack_door = CollectionProperty(type=archipack_door)
Ui Panel¶
@classmethod
def poll(cls, context):
return archipack_door.filter(context.active_object)
def draw(self, context):
o = context.active_object
if not archipack_door.filter(o):
return
layout = self.layout
layout.operator('archipack.door_manipulate', icon='HAND')
props = archipack_door.datablock(o)
Manipulate Operator¶
class ARCHIPACK_OT_door_manipulate(Operator):
bl_idname = "archipack.door_manipulate"
bl_label = "Manipulate"
bl_description = "Manipulate"
bl_options = {'REGISTER', 'UNDO'}
@classmethod
def poll(self, context):
return archipack_door.filter(context.active_object)
def invoke(self, context, event):
d = archipack_door.datablock(context.active_object)
d.manipulable_invoke(context)
return {'FINISHED'}
Create Operator¶
class ARCHIPACK_OT_truss(ArchipackCreateTool, Operator):
bl_idname = "archipack.truss"
bl_label = "Truss"
bl_description = "Create Truss"
bl_category = 'Archipack'
bl_options = {'REGISTER', 'UNDO'}
def create(self, context):
m = bpy.data.meshes.new("Truss")
o = bpy.data.objects.new("Truss", m)
# add propertyGroup to mesh
d = m.archipack_truss.add()
context.scene.objects.link(o)
o.select = True
context.scene.objects.active = o
self.load_preset(d)
self.add_material(o)
m.auto_smooth_angle = 1.15
return o
def execute(self, context):
if context.mode == "OBJECT":
bpy.ops.object.select_all(action="DESELECT")
o = self.create(context)
o.location = bpy.context.scene.cursor_location
o.select = True
context.scene.objects.active = o
self.manipulate()
return {'FINISHED'}
else:
self.report({'WARNING'}, "Archipack: Option only valid in Object mode")
return {'CANCELLED'}
