Script.data_exists() not working after transaction

baaswietse · November 13, 2023, 8:02pm

Hello, whenerver I run the functions script.data_exitst(“example”), script.store_data(“example”, dataClass) or script.load_data(“example”) after a transaction, I get below error.

To reproduce this issue you can simply run bellow code:

from pyrevit import revit

49 with revit.Transaction("test"):
50         pass
51 print script.data_exists("example")

If you run this code without a transaction or in the transaction, there is no issue.
For my use case, it is not possible to run these functions inside a transaction.

Hi @baaswietse, I’m sorry you’re experiencing this issue…

Just to be sure: are you working on an existing document/project?

It seems that the ProjectInfo class loses the reference to the currently opened document, and so the PathName can’t be reached.

could you please tell us what does the following returns if you put it after the transaction?

from pyreivt import HOST_APP

print(HOST_APP.doc.PathName)

baaswietse · November 14, 2023, 2:32pm

Hello, thank you for the response.
I am working on an active document, I tried it on a local model and on a cloud model, with the same issue.

Running your code gets me below output.
Autodesk Docs://Gent - Parking UZ/Gent DB UZ Parking.rvt

When I run the code after a transaction:

from pyrevit import HOST_APP, revit

with revit.Transaction("test transaction"):
    pass
print(HOST_APP.doc.PathName)

I get this output:

IronPython Traceback:

Hi, I’m afraid you discovered a bug!

@Jean-Marc it seems that somewhere, when exiting the transaction manager, the host application object loses the reference to the document, but I couldn’t fund out exactly where.

@baaswietse would you be so kind to open an issue on github linking this discussion and providing us all the details (follow the instruction on the issue template)? Thanks

baaswietse · November 15, 2023, 10:09am

I have made the bug report on Github: ProjectInfo class loses reference to the currently opened document after transaction is closed · Issue #2006 · eirannejad/pyRevit · GitHub

Jean-Marc · December 1, 2023, 1:41pm

replied in the issue earlier,
@baaswietse
I tried it on my side with latest installers and engine 2711


from pyrevit import revit, script, HOST_APP 
script.store_data("example", "Hello World!", this_project=True) 
with revit.Transaction("test"): 
    pass 
print(script.data_exists("example")) 
print(script.load_data("example")) 
print(HOST_APP.doc.PathName)

It works just fine

Is your file saved?

baaswietse · December 1, 2023, 3:54pm

Hello @Jean-Marc, after switching from 277 to 2711 and restarting my computer the issue persists…
I tried on a local saved file and a file hosted on ACC.

46    from pyrevit import revit, script, HOST_APP
47
48    script.store_data("example", "Hello World!", this_project=True)
49    with revit.Transaction("test"):
50        pass
51    print(script.data_exists("example"))
52    print(script.load_data("example"))
53    print(HOST_APP.doc.PathName)

@sanzoghenzo can you reproduce on your side?
