How to judge the type of model？

[freecadlzh]

In Freecad， In part workbench ,use cube tools added a cube model named "Box", Now get the model and get the type using code:

Code: Select all

>>> ooo =FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.getObject("Box")
>>> type(ooo)
<class 'PrimitivePy'>

Now I wanted to judge the type of the model in python script:

Code: Select all

if type(ooo) == PrimitivePy:
    print("1")

When the script runs goes errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'PrimitivePy' is not defined

So I changed the code as below:

Code: Select all

if type(ooo) == "PrimitivePy":
    print("1")

When script runs, no errors, but "print("1")" not runs.

So my problem is how to judge the type of the Cube model in "if" code?

Need helps , Thanks a lot.

I don't know why it's better to use this rather than ooo.TypeId, but you can do this with :

Code: Select all

if "'PrimitivePy'" in str(type(ooo)):

Good！ It is a way! Follow yours code , it can runs and print("1").

Any other way to code this ?

Because :

Code: Select all

>>> type(1)
<class 'int'>

>>> if type(1) == int:
...     print("1")
... 
1

So is there any other way to code?

What are you trying to code ? Do you want to identify only boxes ? Or any Part primitive ? Or any 3D object ?
