Run Daylight Simulation - [source code]

export geometries to rad file, and run daylighting/energy simulation -

HBObjects [Required]
List of Honeybee objects
analysisRecipe [Required]
An analysis recipe
writeRad [Required]
Write simulation files
runRad [Optional]
Run the analysis. _writeRad should be also set to true. Set to 2 if you want the analysis to run in background. This option is useful for parametric runs when you don't want to see command shells.
numOfCPUs [Default]
Number of CPUs to be used for the studies. This option doesn't work for image-based analysis
workingDir [Default]
Working directory on your system. Default is set to C:\Ladybug
radFileName [Default]
Input the project name as a string
meshSettings [Optional]
Custom mesh setting. Use Grasshopper mesh setting components
exportAirWalls [Optional]
Set to True if you want to export air walls as surfaces and False if you don't want air walls be exported. The default is set to False.
additionalRadFiles [Optional]
A list of fullpath to valid radiance files which will be added to the scene
overwriteResults [Optional]
Set to False if you want the component create a copy of all the results. Default is True
