Enable Running Features Not Yet Supported by OS on "Re-Run OSM" Component #542

Closed chriswmackey closed 5 years ago

chriswmackey commented 7 years ago

This will complete the intended workflow in albeit a very hacky way but it is the best we can do now: Users can export to OpenStudio and, if they need to change detailed parameters of the HVAC in the OS interface, they can. Then, if they assigned things in Honeybee that are not yet supported by OpenStudio like natural ventilation or CSV schedules, the can use the "Re-run OSM" component and a set of instructions output from the "Export to OpenStudio" component to write these features into the resulting IDF before simulating.

... and while I am at it, I might as well add an option to only generate an IDF from the OSM (and not run it through E+) as per this discussion: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/ladybug/forum/topics/window-shade-generator-simulation-result-output-is-same-for?commentId=2985220%3AComment%3A1571582&xg_source=msg_com_gr_forum

I have realized that I am not going to be able to do this for the release but I will do it soon thereafter along with understanding the state of OpenStudio measures.

This goes along with this issue: https://github.com/mostaphaRoudsari/honeybee/issues/638 We'll implement this in HB+ using measures and, if anyone wants to take a stab at writing the measures now, please do!

I have realized that doing this is not at all the right way to go so I am closing out the issue. Needless to say, the methods used by HB+ will be much better.
