Base Wrappers

Base Object Wrapper Class

Most other wrappers inherit from this base class, which has 4 primary responsibilities:

• Instantiates Class and stores wrapped element.
• Provides a unwrap() method to return the wrapped object.
• Provides access to all original methods and attributes of the wrapped object through a pass through __getattr__
• Implements a __repr__() for consistent object representation

Because access to original methods and properties is maintained, you can keep the elements wrapped throughout your code. You would only need to unwrap when when passing the element into function where the original Type is expected.

>>> wrapped = BaseObjectWrapper(SomeObject)
>>> wrapped
<RPW_BaseOBjectWrapper:>
>>> wrapped.unwrap()
SomeObject
>>> wrapped.Pinned
False
>>> wrapped.AnyRevitPropertyOrMethod

Warning

This class is primarily for internal use. If you plan on creating your own wrappers using this base class make sure you read through the documentation first. Misusing this class can cause easilly cause Max Recursion Crashes.

class rpw.base.BaseObjectWrapper(revit_object, enforce_type=True)

Bases: rpw.base.BaseObject

Parameters:element (APIObject) – Revit Element to store

__init__(revit_object, enforce_type=True)

Child classes can use self._revit_object to refer back to Revit Element

Warning

Any Wrapper that inherits and overrides __init__ class MUST ensure _revit_object is created by calling super().__init__ before setting any self attributes. Not doing so will cause recursion errors and Revit will crash. BaseObjectWrapper should define a class variable _revit_object_class to define the object class being wrapped.

unwrap()

Returns the Original Wrapped Element

Base Object Wrapper Class

Most other wrappers inherit from this base class,
which has 4 primary responsibilities:

Because access to original methods and properties is maintained, you can keep
