Installation

Introduction

The Python extensions provided here aim to simplify several workflows integrating Ladybug Tools as part of general engineering workstreams. They are distributed as part of the BHoM, and constitute a mirror-image of the LadybugTools Python environment created when installing Pollination. Currently Pollination version 1.4.6 is supported.

Step 1: Install prerequisites

You must have the following installed in order for this toolkits Python environment installation to work fully:

• Pollination 1.46.0
• The latest release of the BHoM.

Step 2: Install LadybugTools_Toolkit Python environment

For most users, the easiest way to install the Python environment is via Grasshopper.

Open grasshopper and replicate the following image.

You can find the BHoM component by pressing ctrl+shift+B and typing the following:
