Hi @Mystac , welcome to the community.
Pyrevit is an open source project run by volunteers that invest their free time to maintain it and try to handle bugs and requests from the community.
Unfortunately the creator and lead developer of pyrevit canāt invest his time to perform the transition, so we (well, mostly @dosymep, i canāt take credit for this) had to learn about the ins and out ot the project code (itās not that simple, believe me) and try to upgrade it to make it compatible with the new .net8 framework that runs revit 2025.
We ran into some issues, and we canāt estimate a release date since, as I mentioned before, weāre volunteers and use our free time.
If you really need it, youāre welcome to help us make this happen, both with coding or with financial support
Hi @sanzoghenzo
thanx for your message and explanation about the new .net8 framework that runs revit 2025. I hope you will soon release a new version of Pyrevit thatās works correctly with the new .net8. Just let me know how the work on the new pyrevit goes and keep me in touch about this.
You can find the discussion of our progress here:
Shout-out to @dosymep , the main contributor of this epic change!
Hi Sanzoghenzo,
First thanks for the link and so I can follow the progress.
Now I saw that Py-revit runs on 2025 on the link. Will there be a new release when itās possible?
Hi @Mystac,
my previous statement still holds true:
Speaking of myself, I have enough deadlines at work, so I donāt make promises for things that I do in my free time.
I donāt even own a copy of Revit 2025, so I canāt properly test if itās working.
To sum up: It will be ready when itās ready
@sanzoghenzo thnx for youāre answer and I mean its a good progress and I hope there will be more good news soonā¦ good luck with youāre work and the deadlines.
How can I help with code
@Edchar do you know C#/python/engines?
Have a look at Dosymep PR on the repo to get started
What is the best way to get notified when pyrevit for Revit 2025 does come out?
Subscribing this PR netcore by dosymep Ā· Pull Request #2088 Ā· pyrevitlabs/pyRevit Ā· GitHub
or be on the lookout of the forum. We will announce it here too.
So out of massive curiousity: when Autodesk releases a new version, what has to be done to make it that version compatible?
I read into the docs so I get api changes, but besides those: what else needs to be done?
I can imagine ctrlc ctrlv the .csproject and rebuild tadaaaa wonāt cut it.
Love to read the things needed to be done
@jvandermeulen
update all dependencies to the new version of the framework, and update the code if the API has been changed in the new version of the framework
Ah, and the framework (assuming you are refurring to a .net framework?) is always newer with a new Revit version?
Makes me understand stuff a little bit better
Not always, in fact, it has stayed the same (4.8) for a bunch of versions.
The problem weāre facing now is the switch to a ācompletelyā (it is not, but it feels like) incompatibile framework (they have delayed the switch for a long time, but it is inevitable now in order to stay up to date) so many things needs to be checked.
The good thing is that, the next framework updates will be easier
Hahaha. Bet. And much appreciation you guys doing that!
A good result requires time and effort. And as I only have one tiny tiny addon made in c# I can only imagine the struggle to grasp a full revamp.
Keep it up!
I enjoy these little behind the scene info. I guess #codinglover is applicable to me
I wonder how far the progress of Pyrevit for Revit 2025. Is there a change this will be released soon? Thanks for the update and the progress which I can follow.
Hi @Mystac,
Unfortunately the development has pretty much stalled we missed our motivator @Jean-Marc!
Much of the migration work is done, just today he found out a problem with the installer / pyrevit cli (or at least it seems like this on my pc), but to my knowledge nobody of us (me, @dosymep and @Jean-Marc) has experience on the installer inner workings.
We would need a bit of help from @eirannejad for this, I suppose.
Is there any discussion or thread with details on the outstanding issues?
I was finally able to get it to fully build and created installers, but it was still throwing error when I opened Revit. Havenāt had time to dig into it more yet so not sure if Iām hitting the same installer issue or something different.
@sanzoghenzo thanx for the updateā¦
@Jean-Marc succes with latest problemsā¦
Hope this will be fixed in the futureā¦
So there will be a installer for Revit 2025.
