Fusion 360 Python Script Problem - Add Folder Name To Output

[isocam]

Can anybody help???

Please see the attached ".txt" file (I have changed the file extension from .py to .txt)

I can run the script on an assembly document OK.

All I need to do is to add the document's folder name to the output file (shown in the script file as ??????????)

For example,

I have a main project file where all my documents (assemblies, parts & drawings are stored)

I also have two other folders "Purchased Parts" & "Referenced Parts". Please see the attached picture.

I need to update the script file to show the folder name where the document has been inserted into the assembly.

In the example, show above, this could be "Purchased Parts" & "Referenced Parts".

Can anybody update the script for me to allow me to add the folder name to the output?

Many thanks in advance!

@isocam one can use DataFile.childReferences property to get a list of referenced designs. You can loop through the list to get the details like file name, folder name, project name etc.

Below is a sample script to output the details of external references in a file.

import adsk.core, adsk.fusion, adsk.cam, traceback


def run(context):
    ui = None
    try:
        app = adsk.core.Application.get()
        ui = app.userInterface
        design = adsk.fusion.Design.cast(app.activeProduct)
        document = design.parentDocument.dataFile
        info = "\n"
        for external_ref in document.childReferences:
            info += f'\n File name: {external_ref.name}'
            info += f'\n Folder name: {external_ref.parentFolder.name}'
            info += f'\n Project name: {external_ref.parentProject.name}'
            info += "\n-----------------------------------"
        app.log(info)

    except:
        if ui:
            ui.messageBox('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))
