I have a database with about 80 tables on it, so i wanna connect to the database, make 5/6 different queries, extract the info and use it as an input to grasshopper.
ts will basically be a set of different ellipses:{a1, a2, b1, b2} (with different properties) From that i want to create random Lists of let’s say 15 items (ellipses) Something like that {a1, b2, b1, a1, a2, b1, b1, a2, a1, b1, b2, a1, b2, a1, a1}. But I want to be able to create some constrains. So for example if I have a1 I will be able to have next a2 or b1 but not to b2. I am not sure if this is possible in grasshopper and i was messing around with some logic components but without any luck.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

e. I want to be able to give it the panels a range let say between 1-3 and then give it a specific number of variations allowed, like only 80 different heights can be generated and the rest of the panels would be rounded up or down to match with one of the 80 heights. would that be possible?
Thanks…
me in 19 different pipeline components. Marginally better, but I'll still need to do this operation approx. 80 times...gulp.
Here's a wishlist request for David: expose string inputs in the Geometry Pipeline for Layer and Name. If I had that, I could change one string to swap my whole geometry set! (My layers have names like "B1 red rail", "B1 blue rail" etc., then the next time I'll want "B2 red rail", "B2 blue rail" etc.)
BTW, I'm happy to script something in C# if it will help: maybe I could write something like the Geometry Pipeline that takes a string input for layer name? Hmmm...
