Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Information

speckle.works

Speckle does stuff with Grasshopper and the Internet (usually). 

Speckle has quite a rich, albeit short, history: 

1. Speckle The First: http://speckle.xyz

Speckle The First simply allows you to upload geometry to a server and then view it online from anywhere. 

2. Speckle The Second: http://beta.speckle.xyz

Speckle The Second allows you to precompute a discrete portion of your solution space and then play with it online by manipulating sliders, through some quite primitive sliders. 

3. Speckle The Third: http://streams.speckle.xyz

Speckle The Thirds does the same as Speckle The Second (see above), but better and is wrapped in a more attractive ui. 

All the above were experiments in developing a protocol for design data communication that is easy to use and just works. 

Forward to now: https://speckle.works

Speckle enables data rich collaboration between designers: structure your own communications channels and evolve complexity gradually, from simple geometry to fully integrated BIM-like “smart” objects.

Check out the tutorials: 

1. How to install

2. How to send and receive data

3. How to build your own bim

Speckle is Open Source, released under the MIT Licence. That's polite language that you can do whatever the f*** you want with it, including taking the code and start selling it for a profit (as long as you credit). 

Another important thing to note is that we are taking feature requests and we do ask questions, but not in the grasshopper forum: 

We hang out on slack and on the discourse forum.

I am trying to set up a workflow from Grasshopper into Dynamo through streams in Speckle within a shared Project. Is it possible to send data to an existing stream in Grasshopper. I have only been able to get the attached to work where I change the name of the 'data sender' in Grasshopper to then update that name in Dynamo. Thanks for any input.

Hello ramon, i replied to you on slack. in short, the answers:

1) is yes. and

2) also yes. speckle streams and *.speckle.xyz are no longer developed. they will be rebuit based on speckle.works.

Hi Dimitri,

This is a very interesting development. Some quick questions:

  1. Currently there is a 3mb limit for each transaction. If I were to deploy my own server, would that limit go away?
  2. Also, will speckle.works ultimately replace speckle.xyz? It seems that the web viewer for speckle.xyz has some size limitation as well, but I can't figure out what the limitation is. Low quantities of geometry, say up to 60 elements, show up in the browser, but beyond that, no changes are represented and only the last successful model is shown, without a warning. Is that intentional?

Thanks and regards

@owe part 1: model info: not yet, but we're working on it. 

@owe part 2: sliders, hell yea. check http://streams.speckle.xyz

Hi! I started using Speckle recently and I have to say it´s just great!!

Still, I am wondering if it could be possible to visualize certain properties of an object clicking on it. I mean its surface, volume or maybe some text that was previously linked to that object in Grasshopper. Lets say you are defining a basic geometry for plots and buildings in Grasshopper and you want to visualize not only their geometry but their numeric features once you upload the file to Speckle.

Hi Dimitrie!

Is there a way to include sliders to control the shape of the model uploaded to Speckle?
You show that in several examples but I didn´t find a way to do it when I downloaded the Speckle component.

BTW, congrats, great job!!

THX

Hi, Dimitrie! Tell me please, how to change default folder name?

I have a same problem:

"1. Solution exception:The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)"

Comment by Dimitrie Stefanescu @idid on February 23, 2016 at 1:25pm

Yep, I checked - there's something wrong with the shortid generation :/ when the app restarts, it gets init with the same stupid seed, which means it start overwriting files. 

Thank god i said no guarantees. I'll push a hot fix asap - after tomorrow though...

For now, re-upload those models and use the new links... sorry for the trouble! 

Comment by Tomaž Berčič on February 20, 2016 at 1:39pm

Hi,

two observations...

I had 5 simple models on the old specle that I embedded in a website just as a viewer.

First of all 5 links somehow disappeared and stopped working. Three of them reverted to cubes, two became something completely different.

I will try it again ... as you have said NO guarantees!! ... I was wondering do you have a time limit on the models?

Also I noticed that the embedded geometry works really well on the computer but does not work and crashes the site on the iOS phone.

Keep up the good work!

Salut Dimitrie,

Ton Français est meilleur que mon Anglais !

Je serais ravi de participer, je vais essayer de diffuser mon article sur le wiki GitHub.

A bientôt.
