# CliDApp4Rhino
## Overview
CliDApp4Rhino package is a Python package with the plugin for the [Rhinoceros](https://www.rhino3d.com/) program developed by [CliMA](https://clima.caltech.edu/) that enables users to download weather files into the Rhinoceros environment from the CliDApp API.
### Requirements
Before installing the CliDApp4Rhino plugin, ensure that you have the follwing:
- Rhinoceros 5 and above
- Python 3 or later installed on your device
- Internet connection: to download weather files
### Installation
To install the CliDApp4Rhino plugin, follow the steps below:
1. Close Rhinoceros (Rhino) if opened
2. Navigate to the terminal and enter the following to install the package
```shell
pip install CliDApp4Rhino
```
3. After run the following command to install the package to the correct directory.
```shell
clidapp4rhino
```
4. Open Rhino and enter the following in the command-line
```shell
CliDApp4Rhino
```
If Rhino suggests this command, then you have successfully installed the plugin.
### Usage
After installing the plugin and launching the CliDApp4Rhino command, you will now see the dialog box below:
<div align="center">
<img src="https://clidapp.s3.amazonaws.com/static/server/img/dialog.png" alt="CliDApp4Rhino Dialog Box" width="35%" height="35%">
</div>
Begin by selecting a city from the dropdown
<div align="center">
<img src="https://clidapp.s3.amazonaws.com/static/server/img/city_selection.png" alt="CliDApp4Rhino City Selection" width="35%" height="35%">
</div>
Then select a weather file from the following three options:
- Typical Meteorological Year (TMY)
- Future Meteorological Year (FTMY)
- Actual Meteorological Year (AMY)
The start/end-year ranges will differ depending on the weather file selected. Currently, for AMY and TMY files, the start-year and end-year range starts from 1979 and ends in 2022. For FTMY files, the start year is 2050, and the end year is 2070.
Afterwards, select your desired file type. Then, enter the path where you want to download the file. If the text box for Download Path is left empty, the default path will be Downloads/clidapp/epw. Lastly, click on **OK** to begin downloading the weather file.
### Example
An example of using the CliDApp4Rhino plugin is downloading the EPW weather files to visualise data in wind rose charts.
As shown in the form inputs below, the following file was downloaded.
<div align="center">
<img src="https://clidapp.s3.amazonaws.com/static/server/img/form_inputs.png" alt="CliDApp4Rhino Form Input" width="35%" height="35%" style="display: inline-block; margin-right: 10px;">
<img src="https://clidapp.s3.amazonaws.com/static/server/img/file.png" alt="CliDApp4Rhino File" width="35%" height="35%" style="display: inline-block;">
</div>
We get the following chart using a Panel, the ImportEPW Ladybug module, and the WindRose Ladybug module.
