| Problem: | idf = IDF(fname) will fail if isinstance(fname, filepath.Path) |
|---|---|
| Solution: | update code to read filepath.Path |
| Problem: | idf.save uses relative path. if the dir is changed, it can save in the wrong place |
|---|---|
| Solution: | use absolute path in idf.save |
fixed a typo in this file (HISTORY.rst)
- fixed issue #324
Problem
- The EnergyPlus objects can have legal names in the following format Special glass <thickness is 3mm>
- Energyplus itself has no problems with such names
- This name turns up in the HTML output file.
- In the HTML file the part name`<thickness is 3mm>` looks like an HTML tag.
- The browser tries to make sense of it and fix it so that something can be displayed
- This results in a mangled name in the HTML file as viewed in the browser
Solution
- Ideally this has to be fixed in Energyplus
- eppy has a stop gap fix
- eppy will ignore any tag within a cell of a table
- fixed issue #320
- Problem: eppy.results.readhtml is very slow. Write similar function using generators
- Solution: functions in eppy.fasthtml use lazy evaluation to get the tables quickly. This has been documented in user documentation in "Reading outputs from E+" and in "New functions"
- fixed issue #302
- Problem: no documentation for multiprocessing runs
- Solution: added documentation for multiprocessing runs in ./docs/runningeplus.ipynb
- Partial fix for #287 (deprecate python2)
- removed six in most places
- removed python2 in .travis.yml
- removed python2 in appveyor.yml
- fixed issue #291
- used cookiecutter template for eppy
- from https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter

- fixed issue #289
- Problem: E+ is unable to read numbers that are wider than 19 digits
- Solution: format these numbers in scientific notation
- fixed issue #281
- Problem: pytest failing in python 2
- Solution: Set the correct version numbers in the requirements.txt file
- fixed issue # 283
- surface.azimuth calculates the azimuth from the surface coordinates
- surface.true_azimuth also include the effecto building azimuth ans zone azimuth
- fixed issue #245
- Error handling errors in python 3
- fixed issue #254
- when running a simulation:
- Add expandobjects flag if any HVACTemplate objects are present in IDF
- fixed issue #251
- Run black on the whole codebase.
- Added black --check . to the Travis config for Python 3.7 on linux for master and non-master branches, to fail if formatting inconsistencies are found.
- updated version number in setup.py
- Fixed an installation bug
- issue # 247
- Allows mixed cases for specifying objects:
- issue # 242
the code now works in the following way:
# you can use: objs = idf.idfobjects['ElectricEquipment'] # instead of objs = idf.idfobjects['ElectricEquipment'.upper()]
- Fixes the TypeError
- 'TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "dict_keys") to list' is fixed
- issue # 113, # 239
- fixed issue # 238
- Problem: if the IDF object has more fileds than that in the IDD file, eppy will truncate the object and will give no warning.
- Solution: eppy should throw an exception to warn the user that the IDF file is not readable without changing the IDD file.
- The exception message will the text that has to be added to the IDD file, so that it works correctly.
- idf = eppy.openidf(fname) will set idd and open the file
- issue # 231
- idf = eppy.newidf(version="8.5") will open a blank idf file
- issue # 231
- fanpower.bhp2pascal(bhp, cfm, fan_tot_eff)
- issue # 228
- fanpower.watts2pascal(watts, cfm, fan_tot_eff)
- issue # 228
- updated useful_scripts/idfdiff.py to make the IDD file optional
- issue # 225
- idf.copyidfobject() returns the copied object
- issue # 223
- easyopen.easyopen gives more explicit error message when idd file is not found
- issue # 224
- using cookiecuter <https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage> in eppy
- fixed bug in idf.run()
- the bug resulted in the working directory changing if the run was done with an invalid idf
- fixed bug in useful_scripts/idfdiff.py
- idf.newidfobject() has a parameter defaultvlaues=True or False. This can be toggled to set or not set the default values in the IDF file
- fixed a bug, where some idfobject fields stayed as strings even though they were supposed to be numbers
- new function easyopen(idffile) will automatically set the IDD file and open the IDF file. This has been documented in ./docs/source/newfunctions.rst
- Added documentation in the installation section on how to run eppy in grasshopper
- added functions to get fan power in watts, bhp and fan flow in cfm for any fan object. This has been documented in ./docs/source/newfunctions.rst
- documentation is now at http://eppy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
- fixed a bug in the setup.py (It was not installing some required folders)
- updated documentation to include how to run Energyplus from eppy
- format of the table file was changed in E+ 8.7.
- readhtml is updated to be able to read the new format (it still reads the older versions)
- IDF.run() works with E+ version >= 8.3
- This will run the idf file
- documentation updated to reflect this
- Some changes made to support eppy working on grasshopper
- more work needs to be done on this
fixed the bug in the setup file
bugfix for idfobjects with no fieldnames. Such fields are named A!, A2, A3/ N1, N2, N3 taken from the IDD file
There is a bug in the setup.py in this version
It is now possible to run E+ from eppy
bugfix in loopdiagram.py. Some cleanup by removing extra copies of loopdiagram.py
This is a release for python2 and python3. pip install will automatically install the correct version.
bugfix so that json_functions can have idf objects with names that have dots in them
tab completion of fileds (of idfobjects) works in ipython and ipython notebook
added:
- construction.rfactor and material.rfactor
- construction.uvalue and material.uvalue
- construction.heatcapacity and material.heatcapacity
- the above functions do not work in all cases yet. But are still usefull
added:
- zone.zonesurfaces -> return all surfaces of the zone
- surface.subsurfaces -> will return all the subsurfaces (windows, doors etc.) that belong to the surface
added two functions that scan through the entire idf file:
- EpBunch.getreferingobjs(args)
- EpBunch.get_referenced_object(args)
- they make it possible for an idf object to scan through it's idf file and find other idf objects that are related to it (thru object-list and reference)
refactored code for class IDF and class EpBunch fixed a bug in modeleditor.newidfobject
added ability to update idf files thru JSON messages.
Replaced library bunch with munch
- bug fix -> read files that have mixed line endings. Both DOS and Unix line endings
- python3 version of eppy is in ./p3/eppy
- eppy license has transitioned from GPLv3 to MIT license
- made some bugfixes to hvacbuilder.py
- bugfix in ./eppy/Air:useful_scripts/idfdiff.py
- added in ./eppy/Air:useful_scripts/idfdiff_missing.py
- this displays only the missing objects in either file
- idf.saveas(newname) changes the idf.idfname to newname
- so the next idf.save() will save to newname
- to retain the original idf.idfname use idf.savecopy(copyname)
updated the following: - idf.save(lineendings='default') - idf.saveas(fname, lineendings='default')
- optional argument lineendings
- if lineendings='default', uses the line endings of the platform
- if lineendings='windows', forces windows line endings
- if lineendings='unix', forces unix line endings
r0.464a released on 2015-01-13. This in alpha release of this version. There may be minor updates after review from users.
- Developer documentation has been completed
- Added a stubs folder with scripts that can be used as templates
- fixed a bug in script eppy/useful_scripts/loopdiagram.py
added a script eppy/useful_scripts/loopdiagram.py:
python loopdiagram.py --help usage: loopdiagram.py [-h] idd file draw all the loops in the idf file There are two output files saved in the same location as the idf file: - idf_file_location/idf_filename.dot - idf_file_location/idf_filename.png positional arguments: idd location of idd file = ./somewhere/eplusv8-0-1.idd file location of idf file = ./somewhere/f1.idf optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit
fixed a bug in hvacbuilder.makeplantloop and hvacbuilder.makecondenserloop
- added eppy/useful_scripts/eppy_version.py
- updated documentation to match
- added a script that can compare two idf files. It is documented in "Useful Scripts". The script is in
- eppy/usefull_scripts/idfdiff.py
- added two scripts that test if eppy works when new versions of energyplus are released. Documentation for this is not yet done. The scripts are
- eppy/usefull_scripts/eppyreadtest_file.py
- eppy/usefull_scripts/eppyreadtest_folder.py
- fixed a bug where eppy would not read backslashes in a path name. Some idf objects have fields that are path names. On dos/windows machines these path names have backslashes
