What is Revit_Toolkit for - BHoM/Revit_Toolkit GitHub Wiki

Revit_Toolkit is a set of tools that enable and support exchange of information between BHoM and Revit. The heart of the process is the Adapter that links Revit with BHoM. It allows for the following actions:

• Pull from Revit to BHoM
• Push from BHoM to Revit and update Revit elements
• Remove Revit elements

Push and Pull include conversion from and to Revit, which is being triggered on the fly.

Revit_Toolkit includes a range of support classes and methods that extend the core BHoM to embrace the complexity of Revit. These, among others, are:

• dedicated Requests supported by a range of filtering methods that allow specified queries
• BHoM wrappers for Revit elements: Sheets, Viewports, IViews, DraftingInstances, ModelInstances etc.
• general methods to process Revit elements and documents, mainly for conversion purposes

All Adapter actions can be taken from any of the BHoM-supported UIs: Grasshopper, Dynamo or Excel. Additionally, all relevant methods and classes are public, therefore other applications can be built upon the code base of Revit_Toolkit (see simple Forms app sample).
