read_idf: Read an EnergyPlus Input Data File (IDF)

Description

read_idf takes an EnergyPlus Input Data File (IDF) as input and returns an Idf object. For more details on Idf object, please see Idf class.

Usage

read_idf(path, idd = NULL)

Arguments

path

A path to an EnergyPlus IDF file or a string that can be parsed as an IDF. The file extension does not matter. So models stored in TXT format are still able to correctly be parsed.

idd

Any acceptable input of use_idd(). If NULL, which is the default, the version of IDF will be passed to use_idd(). If the input IDF does not have a version field (possible for ".ddy" files), then it will be parsed using the latest version of IDD cached, with a warning.

Value

An Idf object.
