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 It suggests creating a new extension gem, although the rake task [bundle exec rake init_new_gem] is outdated.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
