Assembler

ADDON. Version 1.2.2. Released on 21-Nov-2023. Provides 36 components. Created by Co-de-iT (Computational Design Italy). Features 0 video tutorials.

Assembler is a Grasshopper plugin that helps you create and manage assemblages of parts, conceived with (but not limited to) the architectural scale in mind. With Assembler, you can create assemblages from parts and rules for their connection, manage the criteria for the assemblage growth and its interaction with environmental geometries and data, and perform local (part) and global (assemblage) level computation on the results for analysis or post-processing.

Post Processing

	Display Assemblage (AOaDisp) Display Assemblage with a set of modes
	Extract Handles (AOeHandles) Extract essential Handle information for an AssemblyObject
	Remove AssemblyObjects (AORem) Removes AssemblyObjects from an Assemblage given their indexes - updating Topology
	Associate XData (AO<>XD) Associates XData to a list of AssemblyObjects Make sure the XData matches the corresponding AssemblyObject kinds present in the list
	Deconstruct Assemblage (AOaDecon) Deconstructs an Assemblage Tree Branch indexes are the unique indexes of objects in the assemblage
	Display Candidates (AOaDispCand) Displays Candidate Objects at last step in the Assemblage
	Extract AOSet (AOaSet) Extracts the set of unique AssemblyObjects kinds used in an Assemblage
	Extract Collision Mesh (AOeCMesh) Extract the collision mesh of an AssemblyObject
	Extract Reference Plane (AOeRPlane) Extract AssemblyObject Reference Plane
	ExtractTopology (AOaTopo) Extract connection data from an Assemblage
	Extract Type (AOeType) Extract the Type of an AssemblyObject

Components

	Construct AssemblyObject (AOCon) Construct an Assembly Object from relevant data
	ConstructHandle (HandCon) Construct a Handle
	Construct XData (XDCon) Construct an XData instance XData can be any kind of Xtended/Xtra data (Geometry, String, Numbers, ...) associated to an AssemblyObject Type
	Deconstruct AssemblyObject (AODecon) Deconstruct an AssemblyObject
	Deconstruct XData (XDDecon) Deconstructs an XData item
	DisplayHandles (HandDisp) Displays Handle Type, weight, sender and receiver planes with rotations for all Handles in the input list
	Reset AssemblyObject (AOReset) Resets an AssemblyObject's values to default
	Construct Composite AssemblyObject (AOComCon) Construct a composite Assembly Object
	Deconstruct Handle (HandDecon) Deconstruct Handle
	Transform XData (XDTran) Apply a transformation to an XData item

Exogenous

	Construct Field N (AFieldN) Constructs an empty Field from a Box N cells along largest Box dimension
	Construct Sparse Field (AFieldSp) Constructs an empty Field from a sparse list of points and optional topology information
	Color Field (AFCol) Generates Field Point colors by scalar values
	Construct Field XYZ (AFieldXYZ) Constructs an empty Field from a Box Individual n. of cells along Box XYZ dimensions
	Deconstruct Field (AFDecon) Deconstructs a Field
	Exogenous Settings (ExoSet) Collects exogenous related settings
	Populate Field (AFPop) Populates a Field with Scalar, Vector, and integer Weight values (optional)

Heuristics

	Heuristic Display (HeuD) Display Heuristics as visual combination of AssemblyObjects
	Heuristics Display Ex (HeuDeX) Display Heuristics as visual combination of AssemblyObjects - extended version
	Heuristics Settings (HeuSet) Collects Heuristics related settings
	Heuristics Writer (HeuWri) Generates Heuristics Set for an AssemblyObjects Set
	Weigh Heuristics (HeuWeigh) Assigns custom integer weights to the Heuristics rules

I/O

	AssemblyObjects From JSON (JSON>AO) Load a list of AssemblyObjects from a JSON file saved with brute force method
	AssemblyObjects To JSON (AO>JSON) Save a list of AssemblyObjects to a JSON file - brute force method
