It's pretty much all in the question, but here are some specifics.
This tutorial shows you how to connect Ladybug's sunpath component to the sunlight hours. In Grasshopper, I've got the file0080-ladybug-sunpath-setup-finished.gh. View course page for Learning Rhino 5 for Mac.
I'm running macOS Sierra.
I've downloaded the latest versions:
- RhinoWIP: 5.3 WIP (5D129w)
- GHPython 0.6.0.3 (worked until there),
- Ladybug 0.0.63 and Honeybee 0.0.60.
I've copied
ItemSelector.gha
into ~Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/MacPlugIns/Grasshopper/Libraries
, and all of the *.ghuser
files into ~/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/MacPlugIns/Grasshopper/UserObjects
Now when I try to launch Grasshopper (via the
ExplicitHistory
command), Rhino becomes unresponsive.![Grasshopper plugin Grasshopper plugin](https://cdn-enterprise.discourse.org/mcneel/uploads/default/original/3X/3/9/396800e9df9ca2e8c77d33aca5f6c9a033936479.png)
Has anyone successfully used Ladybug/Honeybee on mac?

*unfortunately, most of the plugins used in this workshop are not compatible with the beta version of Grasshopper for Mac. A Mac running OS X is not sufficient for this workshop. Consider installing Windows via Boot Camp.
Grasshopper Plugins
This two-day workshop explores twelve popular Grasshopper plugins for accomplishing various objectives.
CentipedeAllows the user to keyframe the animation of multiple objects in Grasshopper along a single slider.
FabTools is a plugin that allows you to handle a lot of tasks when working for document production. The different tools improve the ability of Grasshopper to set properties to geometry.
Firefly is a plugin for connecting Rhino to the Arduino microcontroller and other input/output devices like web cams, mobile phones, game controllers and more.
Galapagosis an evolutionary solver available in the current Grasshopper build. It applies evolutionary logic for solving optimization algorithms setup in Grasshopper.
Hoopsnakeis a component that enables feedback loops (recursion) within Grasshopper.
Horster is a camera control tool that makes it easy to control the camera in Rhino’s viewport via Grasshopper.
Human is a plugin that extends Grasshopper's ability to create and reference geometry including lights, blocks, and text objects. Also enables access to information about the active Rhino document, pertaining to materials, layers, linetypes, and other settings.
Kangaroois a Live Physics engine for interactive simulation, form-finding, optimization and constraint solving.
Ladybug+Honeybeeare two environmental plugins for creating environmentally-conscious building design. Ladybug is an open source environmental plugin for Grasshopper3D that helps architects and engineers create an environmentally-conscious architectural design. Ladybug imports standard EnergyPlus Weather files (.EPW) into Grasshopper and provides a variety of 3D interactive graphics to support the decision-making process during the initial stages of design. Honeybee connects Grasshopper3D to EnergyPlus, Radiance, Daysim and OpenStudio for building energy and daylighting simulation.The Honeybee project intends to make many of the features of these simulation tools available in a parametric way.
Mosquitois a plugin that allows one to tap into social, financial and popular media. Extracting location, profiles, images and messages from Facebook,Twitter, Topsy etc.
SpiderWeb is a plugin that provides functionality for performing calculations on graphs. The library is created with a special focus on the integration of graphs and graph related theories in parametric design environments.
Weaverbirdis a topological modeler that contains many of the known subdivision and transformation operators, readily usable by designers. Instead of doing the work repeatedly, or sometimes using complicated scripts, this plug-in reconstructs the shape, subdivides any mesh, even made by polylines, and helps preparing for fabrication.
