RoutingPartLibrary Class

class NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary

Bases: object

Represents a Routing Part library.

To obtain an instance of this class, refer to NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPart

New in version NX4.0.0.

Methods

Method Description
CreateCriteria Creates a new empty NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList object that can be used as input to Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteria() and Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteriaWithFilter().
FilterOnCurrentSpecifications Does a characteristic list match the current discipline and specifications?
GetChildrenNodes Returns the children nodes of the input node.
GetFilteredRoot Returns the root node of the part library using the current active discipline.
GetNodeType Returns the node type.
GetPartDefinition Returns the part information for a given NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Part node.
GetRoot Returns the root node of the part library.
GetTableDefinition Returns the table information for a given NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Table node.
MatchCriteria Search for entries in the part library table nodes that match the given set of criteria.
MatchCriteriaWithFilter Similar to Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteria(), however it also filters out any parts that don’t match the critiera specified by the current specification.

Enumerations

RoutingPartLibraryColumnStatus Enumeration Hidden status of a column.
RoutingPartLibraryColumnType Enumeration Type of column values.
RoutingPartLibraryNodeType Enumeration Type of nodes in the part library.
RoutingPartLibraryRootType Enumeration Type of root nodes.

Structs

RoutingPartLibraryColumn_Struct Struct Part table column type.

Method Detail

CreateCriteria

RoutingPartLibrary.CreateCriteria

Creates a new empty NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList object that can be used as input to Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteria() and Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteriaWithFilter().

Signature CreateCriteria()

Returns:
Return type:NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList

New in version NX4.0.0.

License requirements: routing_base (“Routing Basic”)

FilterOnCurrentSpecifications

RoutingPartLibrary.FilterOnCurrentSpecifications

Does a characteristic list match the current discipline and specifications?

Signature FilterOnCurrentSpecifications(match, partClasses)

Parameters:
  • match (NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList) – The matching part’s Characteristic List to check against the current discipline and specifications.
  • partClasses (list of str) – The part class hierarchy list that contains the matching part. The first item in the list is the top node name. The last item in the list is the lowest node that contains the matching part.
Returns:

Is the characteristic list valid under the current discipline and specifications?
Return type:

bool

GetFilteredRoot

RoutingPartLibrary.GetFilteredRoot

Returns the root node of the part library using the current active discipline.

Returns None if there is no root node.

Signature GetFilteredRoot(rootType)

Parameters:rootType (NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryRootType) – Which root node to find.

GetNodeType

RoutingPartLibrary.GetNodeType

Returns the node type.

Signature GetNodeType(node)

Parameters:node (str) –
Returns:
Return type:NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType

New in version NX4.0.0.

GetPartDefinition

RoutingPartLibrary.GetPartDefinition

Returns the part information for a given NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Part node.

Signature GetPartDefinition(node)

Parameters:node (str) – Must be a NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Part type node, any other node type causes an exception.
Returns:
Return type:NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList

GetRoot

RoutingPartLibrary.GetRoot

Returns the root node of the part library.

Returns None if there is no root node.

Signature GetRoot()

Returns:
Return type:str

GetTableDefinition

RoutingPartLibrary.GetTableDefinition

Returns the table information for a given NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Table node.

Signature GetTableDefinition(node)

Parameters:node (str) – Must be a NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryNodeType.Table type node, any other node type causes an exception.
Returns:
Return type:list of NXOpen.Preferences.RoutingPartLibraryColumn_Struct

MatchCriteria

RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteria

Search for entries in the part library table nodes that match the given set of criteria.

Returns an array of NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList objects that can be used for assigning stock or placing parts. Searches all nodes at or below the input node for matches.

Performs matches on the name/value pairs in the input critiera, to the column name column values in the part tables below the input node. Ignores names in the input critiera that don’t have a corresonding column in the part for matching.

Signature MatchCriteria(startNode, criteria)

Parameters:
Returns:
Return type:

list of NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList

New in version NX4.0.0.

MatchCriteriaWithFilter

RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteriaWithFilter

Similar to Preferences.RoutingPartLibrary.MatchCriteria(), however it also filters out any parts that don’t match the critiera specified by the current specification.

Signature MatchCriteriaWithFilter(startNode, criteria)

Parameters:
Returns:
Return type:

list of NXOpen.Routing.CharacteristicList
