Update HBJSON

Upgrade a Model HBJSON file to the currently installed version of the schema.

This component can also upgrade to a specific version of the schema but it cannot downgrade the schema version or change the version of any honeybee object other than a Model.

A full list of honeybee-schema versions can be found on the honeybee-schema GitHub: https://github.com/ladybug-tools/honeybee-schema/releases

Inputs

    A file path to a Model HBJSON which will be upgraded to the currently installed version of the Honeybee Model schema (or a specific version specified below).

  • version

    Text to indicate the version to which the Model HBJSON will be updated (eg. 1.41.2). Versions must always consist of three integers separated by periods. If None, the Model HBJSON will be updated to the currently installed version of honeybee-schema.
