I am working on creating a plugin in Ruby. On this moment I am unable to insert the coordinates, that are added to a Sketchup model, in a .txt file.
This is my code:
require 'sketchup.rb'
SKETCHUP_CONSOLE.show rescue Sketchup.send_action("showRubyPanel:")
$stdout = File.new('file.txt', 'w')
module HWmakemyownplug
def self.fileplug
model = Sketchup.active_model
#Make some coordinates.
coordinates = [[2,0,39],[0,0,1],[1,1,0]]
#Add the points in Sketchup. This works!
coordinates.each { |point| model.active_entities.add_cpoint(point) }
#Puts the coordinates to the textfile 'file.txt'. This doesn't work!
$stdout.puts(coordinates)
end #def self.fileplug
end #module makemyownplug
if (!file_loaded?(__FILE__))
#Add to the SketchUp tools menu
extensions_menu = UI.menu("Plugins")
extensions_menu.add_item("testtesttest") { HWmakemyownplug::fileplug }
# Let Ruby know we have loaded this file
file_loaded(__FILE__)
end
The coordinates have to be printed when I click on menu > plugins > testtesttest.
You forgot to close file after $stdout.puts(coordinates)
$stdout.close
