Model

Introduction

The Model allows you to run your Rhino Grasshopper definitions on Packhunt. Models are often used to generate geometry, but can also be used to encode any other type of algorithmic logic.

With the Model you can,

• Run your model with the user inputs by subscribing the Model to the ControlPanel.
• Display model output results as text or in a table by subscribing the ControlPanel to the Model.
• Trigger the solving of the model only when certain inputs are changed with the triggerSolveOn option.
• Assign materials to the geometry to display them with different colours by subscribing the Viewer to the Model.
• Assign layers to the geometry to hide/unhide them in the solution by subscribing the Viewer to the Model.

Below is the configuration example. (Note that some content has been omitted.)

  my-model:
    kind: Model
    modelFile: my-grasshopper-file.gh
    triggerSolveOn: [my-value1, my-value2] # OPTIONAL
    subscribe: # OPTIONAL
      - kind: ControlPanel
        frame: my-home-frame
        source: my-control-panel
