Librarian
Описание
The Librarian is an accessible way to manage and load component families into the Autodesk® Revit® project. The app caches families belonging to the currently active project and any folders containing families within the local computer or in the network. This app allows teams to organize families by discipline, speciality, project-type or any other way deemed fit. BIM Managers may standardize libraries and distribute the pre-cached database file (Librarian.db) to ensure that all users have access to the same folder paths. Below are the salient features:
- Search-able libraries across multiple folders
- Load only the required types instead of all types - this works with Type-Catalogs as well
- See preview images of each family along with type properties
- Cached families across multiple folders and load them on demand without having to preload them into the project template.
- Libraries from previous version years can be viewed and loaded into projects.
The goal of this app is to remove barriers to loading families into the project. Please note that 2019 and previous versions have not been upgraded to the 2.0.0 version and will display the older user interface.
Hello,
The plug-in was only available in Revit when I restarted the computer after the installation!
Does the plug-in only work for architectual categories?
We need it for MEP-categories an this would be very helpful!
Is there a possibility that these categories will be added?
I get problems when I load my families from the folder, it is not showing families. Also if I try to add a new location revit 2023 crashes. Please fix, or provide recommendations.
Please send over the journals from the session so we can review the issue - We addressed the most common issues in our per-release testing. Also note that the app filters Libraries by Revit version year... i.e. if you have Revit 2023 open, then 2022 families won't show up by default. Instructions for getting journals are here: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Location-of-journal-files.html The app also logs important events here: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\SpiceToolsTechnologies\Librarian\Logs - this logs will help us determining the issue. You can send over the information to spicetooler at gmail and/or support at spicetools.org

2023?
This plugin is amazing!!! I changed my "showroom" files for a library organized with loadable families in my project. Thank you so much Spicetools!
Using Librarian has changed the way we work in Revit. No more browsing. No more searching. Eveything is organized and easily accessible. Thanks SpiceTool Team!
Thank you for all your feedback in helping us improve the Librarian! Your patience went a long way.
