honeybee.dictutil module

Utilities to convert any dictionary to Python objects.

Note that importing this module will import almost all modules within the library in order to be able to re-serialize almost any dictionary produced from the library.

honeybee.dictutil.dict_to_object(honeybee_dict, raise_exception=True)

Re-serialize a dictionary of almost any object within honeybee.

This includes any Model, Room, Face, Aperture, Door, Shade, or boundary condition object.

Parameters

• honeybee_dict – A dictionary of any Honeybee object. Note that this should be a non-abridged dictionary to be valid.

• raise_exception – Boolean to note whether an exception should be raised if the object is not identified as a part of honeybee. Default: True.

Returns

A Python object derived from the input honeybee_dict.
