Change Parameters script

Execution

node change_parameters.js ./sample_parameters.json job_name

Formatting the parameters JSON

The parameters JSON file must contain the following fields:

  • Part: URL to download the Inventor part to be modified
  • Parameters: JSON object with "parameter_name": value

The value field can either be a number or a value with units, represented as a string (eg: 12 or "12 mm")

Sample parameters file:

{
    "Part": "https://static.factoryfour.com/pq/typeF_v12.ipt",
    "Parameters": {
        "SupLat_w": 65,
        "SupLat_h": 20,
        "SupMed_w": 4,
        "InfLatRoundingWidth": 12,
        "InfLat_h": 21,
        "InfMed_h": 17,
        "SupLatRoundingWidth": 12,
        "InfMedRoundingWidth": 12,
        "PupilDistance": 62
    }
}
