OpenStudio/Building Component Library/Creating New BCL Repository

In order to publish measures to the Building Component Library it is necessary to format the measure files and folders in a particular format. This NREL BCL page titled Contribute Data ideally should provide guidance for the following instructions. It suggests creating a new extension gem, although the rake task [bundle exec rake init_new_gem] is outdated.

According to this UnmetHours post, the folders must be organized as such:

 openstudio-measure-repo/  
 ├── README.md  
 ├── LICENSE  
 └── lib/  
     └── measures/  
         ├── measure1/  
         │   ├── measure.rb  
         │   ├── measure.xml  
         │   ├── resources/  
         │   │   └── helper.rb  
         │   └── test/  
         │       └── measure1_test.rb  
         └── measure2/  
             ├── measure.rb  
             ├── measure.xml  
             ├── resources/  
             │   └── helper.rb  
             └── test/  
                 └── measure2_test.rb
