microstation

DESCRIPTION:

this is a gem that wraps Bentley Microstation using the WIN32OLE library.

Requirements

• Microstation Installed

• MRI

Installation

Microstation can be installed using (a) the gem install command, (b) Bundler

(a) gem install

Open a terminal and type $ gem install microstation

Tip

Upgrading your installation If you have an earlier version of microstation installed you can update it using: $ gem update microstation If you install a new version of the gem using gem install instead of gem update, you’ll have multiple versions installed. If that’s the case, use the following gem command to remove the old versions: $ gem cleanup microstation

(b) Bundler

1. Create a Gemfile in the root folder of your project (or the current directory)

2. Add the asciidoctor gem to your Gemfile as follows:

   source 'https://rubygems.org'
   gem 'microstation'
   # or specify the version explicitly
   # gem 'microstation', '0.0.5'

3. Save the Gemfile

4. Open a terminal and install the gem using:

   $ bundle

To upgrade the gem, specify the new version in the Gemfile and run bundle again. Using bundle update is not recommended as it will also update other gems, which may not be the desired result.

Usage

text_in_drawing = []
Microstation.run do |app|
   sc = app.create_scanner do
       include_color(3)
       include_level(3)
   end
   app.open_drawing('./test.dgn') do |drawing|
     drawing.scan_text do |text|
        text.reverse! if text =~ /Reverse/  # things that modify thetext_in_drawing
        puts text.to_s
     end
     drawing.scan_model( sc) do |ele|

end

     drawing.save_as_pdf
   end
end
