Revision history [back]

The server has implemented an Extended Runner class which automates the process of persisting measures and their argument values across a datapoint. The class is implemented here. The following command inside the run class of a measure returns a hash of previous measures and their arguments:

runner.former_workflow_arguments

An example of this hash, saved as a json, is as follows:

{ "set_dr_weather_file":{"weather_directory_name":"weather","weather_file_name":"USA_CO_Denver.Intl.AP.725650_TMY3.epw"}, "idf_reference_building_selector":{"building_type":"Stand-aloneRetailNew2004"}, "set_timestep":{"timestep":"60"}, "hardsize_dx_coil":{"cfm_per_ton":"370","square_foot_per_ton":"350"} }

This functionality is currently in the develop branch of the Workflow Gem, and has not yet been released on rubygems. To use it ensure your Gemfile has the following line in it:

gem "openstudio-workflow", :github => "NREL/OpenStudio-workflow-gem", :branch => 'develop'

Finally, run bundle update and bundle install from the command line to set your opentstudio-workflow gem to the development branch of github.
