Rhino Compute documentation links from a few places to https://compute.rhino3d.com/sdk
but this URL returns:
{
“message”: “This server has been turned off”,
“documentation_url”: “Rhino - Compute Guides”
}
Is this expected to be fixed? Thank you!
Yes. This is expected. You will need to run your own instance of Rhino.Compute and then hit the /sdk endpoint that way. The easiest way to start is to download the Hops plugin from the Package Manager. When you do this, an instance of Rhino.Compute will be automatically started in the background each time you start Grasshopper.
You may want to go into the Grasshopper->Preferences->Solver section and uncheck the the toggle which says to Hide the Rhino.Compute Window. After you restart Rhino/Grasshopper, you should see a new application in your taskbar that is the Rhino.Compute instance running at http://localhost:6500. So you could then open a browser and type in http://localhost:6500/sdk and it should return the relevant information you’re looking for.
