Migrating plugin from RhinoScriptCompiler to Script Editor

[Michael_H]

Hi @eirannejad

Thanks for the work on the Script Editor, it’s looking great

I used RhinoScriptCompiler in Rhino 7 to package a bunch of python scripts as Rhino commands and then shared the plugin around my office on a private yak server. Now that I’m in R8, I see that RhinoScriptCompiler is no longer supported, so I want to use Script Compiler to publish new versions of the same plugin. It’s important that the commands that I’ve made don’t get duplicated when the new version of the plugin is installed.

What should I do to migrate the old .rhc plugin project to Script Editor? When I create a project in Script Editor I see it gets an ID that I cannot edit - I would think that in order for Rhino to recognize the plugin as the same, it would need the same ID as is visible in my old plugin in RhinoScriptCompiler.

Is there a way to edit the ID and then I add the same .py files as commands in Script Editor?

Or is my old plug-in doomed to exist in R7 RhinoScriptCompiler forever? Even if I wanted to start over with Script Compiler, I’m not sure how I would ‘release’ the command names that the old plugin uses to then be ‘taken’ again by the new plug-in.

Thanks in advance!

@Michael_H The editor can open the old .rhc files and will save them as the new .rhproj format and therefore using the same Id.

The scriptcompile is still available in the Rhino 8 system folder. It’s just not on the menus anymore But yes it does not support the scripts using the new scripting tools.

The .rhproj file is currently saved as json data so you can manually edit the ids if you want absolute control. I made this ticket to improve this:

RH-80822 Allow overriding project id in project publish

I would love to hear more about your experience setting up the project and potential improvements. I have a series of bug fixes and improvements that I will be working on as well

Ah, fantastic that it can open .rhc files! Sorry I missed that.

When I attempt to open up my old .rhc I encounter an error, it looks like Script Editor is having an issue understanding a command that was created as a .rvb

Here is my full log from the Script Editor when I attempt to open the .rhc:
