EF-Tools is a custom extension for pyRevit that contains multiple tools that might help you.
Developed by Erik Frits

📦 Revit Versions 📦

These tools were developed mainly in Revit 2021.
In case you are using different version of Revit and having any issues,
please let me know so I could adjust them to work on other versions too.

🎉 Release v1.0 🎉

I have contacted the creator of pyRevit - Ehsan Iran-Nejad, and he said that he will add my extension to pyRevit extensions with its next release by default.

You are welcome to use them right now but you will need to modify extensions.json file in pyRevit-Master manually. Follow installation instructions below.

💠 Installation 💠

🎬 YouTube Tutorial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0zbdyyBIo0

  1. Find extensions.json file that is normally saved in the path below by default:
    %appdata%\pyRevit-Master\extensions or sometimes it can be found here C:\Program Files\pyRevit-Master
  2. Open extension.json file in pyRevit-Master\extensions\. Once you open this .json file you will see a dictionary of other extensions. We will need to manually add information about EF-Tools here
  3. Open extension.json file in my repo.
  4. Add the content of my file to the %appdata%\pyRevit-Master\extensions\extensions.json so it matches the other extensions listed in there. Or just replace the file's content with extension.json

Contact me if you need help installing it.
