1 year ago Hi Rido,
Thank your for your response.
I'd like to use the DTDL parser library to read the metadata, such as units, without parsing any dtdl file. For your convenience, I've uploaded the github C# console application 'https://github.com/Raysapps/UnitsSample.git.' This sample does not rely on DTDLParser and simply reads the units information defined in the 'DtdlUnits.json' file and displays on the console window. The json file contains content copied from the Github repo file "https://github.com/digitaltwinconsortium/DTDLParser/blob/687b88c7e4268921d16dc77268982dc60cdd4cbd/dtdl/dtdl digest.json".
I'd like to accomplish the same thing with the DTDLParser. Unfortunately, I couldn't find this information. Would it be possible for you be able to expose an API for reading unit meta data? When parsing the data from the actual dtdl file, my intention is to map units information read, to custom data such as Icon.logo and unit symbols, etc. to display to the UI.I hope I've provided you with all of the necessary information.
Best Regards, Chandra Mohan

there are different APIs for v2 or v3 models, this sample will give you some hints.
can you share the model and what would be your intended output?

Could you please advise on how to fetch Units" for all defined Unit Semantic types (Acceleration , Angle, AngularAcceleration....)? I'm trying to access metadata defined in supplemental types, but I can't find any method or property to retrieve the "Unit" types. For instance, defined unit types for 'AccelerationUnit' are
` { ModelParser modelParser = new(); var supp = modelParser.GetSupplementalTypes(); foreach (var sup in supp) { Console.WriteLine($"{sup.Key} --> {sup.Value.Type}"); foreach (var prop in sup.Value.Properties) { Console.WriteLine($"{prop.Key} --> {prop.Value?.Type}"); } Console.WriteLine();
