IES-Tools

A comprehensive Python-based toolkit for automating project creation and management for the Data Models class in smartgrids.

Overview

IES-Tools is designed to streamline the process of creating working projects tailored for smartgrid data modeling based on provided specifications. The tool serves two main functions:

1. Code Generation - Automatically generate code for various components based on specifications
2. Data Management - Act as a Content Management System with CRUD operations for existing project specifications

Features

Code Generator

• Generate model definitions for smartgrid components
• Create enumeration types
• Generate XML data for testing
• Produce converter methods for data transformation
• Create importer methods for data import
• Generate server classes for backend implementation
• Generate server enum classes

Data Manager

• View existing project specifications
• Filter specifications based on criteria
• Create new project specifications
• Copy existing specifications to new locations
• Delete project specifications

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/CoekCx/IES-Tools

cd IES-Tools

2. Install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Run the main application:

python main.py

Main Menu

The main menu offers two primary options:

• Code Generator - Access code generation features
• Data Manager - Access specification management features

Code Generator

1. Set Project Specification - Define or load a project specification
2. Generate Model Defines - Create model definitions for your project
3. Generate Enums - Create enumeration types
4. Generate XML data - Generate test data in XML format
5. Generate Converter Methods - Create methods to convert between formats
6. Generate Importer Methods - Create methods to import data
7. Generate Server Classes - Create server-side class implementations
8. Generate Server Enum Classes - Create server-side enumeration implementations

Data Manager

1. View Project Specifications - List all available specifications
2. Filter Project Specifications - Find specifications matching certain criteria
3. Create Project Specification - Create a new specification
4. Copy Project Specification - Copy an existing specification
5. Delete Project Specification - Remove a specification
