Rhino inside Revit, "compiling" the script into a component / family

[danielzard2]

Hey all!
So I’m trying to figure out if there’s a way to control an adaptive family to a great extent, meaning, control a lot of aspects of it’s geometries. For example, wall thickness of the walls of this family, or locations of windows on it, or anything, will be dependent on its proximity to other walls in the project, or on it’s location in the project.
So I’m looking for high control over things and make them adaptive to situations. I know how to achieve that very easily with Grasshopper, since for me grasshopper is like a clean canvas which allows anything and I can achieve anything.
I was trying to figure out if there’s a way to control a family to these extents, and Rhino Inside may be a solution, but I don’t want to run the script always, I thought maybe there’s like a way to “compile” the script into a closed functioning Revit family.

Thanks!

This is kind of how Rhino.Inside - Tekla works, the unfortunately Revit API is a totally different monster. The closest thing in Revit would be an advanced Family where you are controlling the parameters via RiR or a pyRevit script, custom add-in.
