ifc5/viewer/src

IFC5 Viewer

This directory contains the code for the ifc5 viewer, as well as the code that is deployed to the buildingsmart url.

Local viewing

Running npm run serve will allow you to use the viewer locally, as the index.html and its dependency render.mjs are checked in to the repo.

Local development

Local development works as follows:

1. Install nodejs if you haven't already
2. open command prompt with this folder as a working directory
3. run npm install
4. Modify the typescript source files (.ts) as desired (do not modify the render.mjs file directly)
5. run npm test to run tests
6. run npm build-viewer to update the render.mjs file which is used by the viewer.
7. run npm run serve to visit the viewer, the host and port will be pasted in the cli output. You can keep this running while editing the viewer.
