API
========

The API functions can be used to write server scripts in Ruby language and run them on the server. Server scripts can be developed by advanced users to solve and automate complex tasks.
An example of such tasks are: data extraction, data validation, custom reporting::

  Server.ModelsList**

return an array of all IFC models, which are uploaded by the current user

**list**

Syntax::

  IFCClassName.list 

**where**

Syntax: IFCClassName.where("all","o") 
Return an Array object::

    IFCCOLUMN.where("all","o").each { |o|
    puts o.globalId
    }


**load_ifc_classes**


Loads a set of IFC classes in memory without any output. It is useful to attach objects with other relationships.

**to_obj**

Load one IFC object through the STEP ID::

"#1001".toObj

return an object instace

**toIfcObject**
Load one or more IFC objects through their STEP IDs::

"#1001,#1002,#1003".toIfcObject

return a hash of objects, where keys are the object IDs and values are the object instances
