Dynamo for Revit Python Scripting

Can’t find the Dynamo node you need?in this Dynamo for Revit Python Scripting Course, Python allows you to create powerful custom nodes that extend the functionality of Dynamo and Autodesk Revit. Python scripting also allows for quicker, more compact, and more efficient Dynamo workflows—which allow you to solve your Revit modeling challenges in smarter, faster ways. This course introduces the Python programming language to designers who want to do more with Dynamo.

Learn the basics of Python data types, conditionals, and loops, before jumping into Dynamo’s Geometry library and the Revit API to make direct model updates with Python. Instructor and BIM expert Jeremy Graham covers filtering elements, accessing parameters, and creating custom views—introducing powerful workflows that push the boundaries of this visual programming tool.

Note: This course uses Dynamo 1.3.1 and Revit 2018. For best results, it helps to have the same versions of the software.

Dynamo for Revit Python Scripting Topics include:

• Importing the Dynamo Geometry library
• Defining variables
• Making decisions with conditionals
• Controlling flow with operators
• Looping
• Defining functions
• Working with external libraries in Python
• Accessing the Revit API with Python

While working with Dynamo for Revit, how many times have you been unable to find a node in Dynamo that does exactly what you want? My name is Jeremy Graham, and I’m a stadium design architect specializing in computational and building information modeling, or BIM, workflows. To start, we’ll focus on the Python programming language.

At the end of this course, you’ll have a strong understanding of how to use Python in Dynamo and be well on your way to creating unique and powerful workflows that push the boundaries of what Dynamo can achieve. Let’s go ahead and get started.

Dynamo extends building information modeling with the data and logic environment of a graphical algorithm editor.

Dynamo is an open source tool, built on a community that contributes to making it better
