Load a gbXML, OSM, or IDF file as a Honeybee Model.

The reverse translators within the OpenStudio SDK are used to import all geometry and boundary conditions (including adjacencies) to a Honeybee format.

Note that, while all geometry will be imported, it is possible that not all of the properties assigned to this geometry will be imported, particularly if a certain property is not supported in the OpenStudio SDK. Honeybee will assign defaults for missing properites.

### Inputs

* **model\_file \[Required]**

A file path to a gbXML, OSM or IDF file from which a Honeybee Model will be loaded.

* **reset\_props**

Set to True to have all energy properties reset to defaults upon import, meaning that only the geometry and boundary conditions are imported from the model file. (Default: False).

* **load \[Required]**

Set to "True" to load the Model from the input file.

### Outputs

* **report**

...

* **model**

A honeybee Model objects that has been re-serialized from the input file.
