To connect to a BIMserver you can use one of the 3 protocols: SOAP, [JSON](JSON API) or [Protocol Buffers](Protocol Buffers). To make connecting to a BIMserver even easier, there also is a Java library you can use.

Get the client library (获取客户端库文件)

From version 1.5 on we are using Maven for all dependency management. We suggest you do too when using the BIMserver Client library as it makes installing all the required dependencies a lot easier.

You can find the Maven XML snippet in the latest release notes (for example https://github.com/opensourceBIM/BIMserver/releases/tag/parent-1.5.51). Make sure you match the version of the client with the version of your BIMserver. It looks something like this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.opensourcebim</groupId>
    <artifactId>bimserverclientlib</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.51</version>
</dependency>

If you are using Eclipse for development, and you are not familiar with Maven yet, use this tutorial.

Of course you can also use the client from source code, in that case download a source zip file, or checkout the projects from GIT.

Examples

This example connects to a locally running BIMserver on port 8080, authenticates with the default username/password and then creates a new project.

package org.opensourcebim;

import org.bimserver.client.BimServerClient;
import org.bimserver.client.json.JsonBimServerClientFactory;
import org.bimserver.interfaces.objects.SProject;
import org.bimserver.shared.ChannelConnectionException;
import org.bimserver.shared.UsernamePasswordAuthenticationInfo;
import org.bimserver.shared.exceptions.BimServerClientException;
import org.bimserver.shared.exceptions.PublicInterfaceNotFoundException;
import org.bimserver.shared.exceptions.ServiceException;

public class ClientDemo {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		try {
			JsonBimServerClientFactory factory = new JsonBimServerClientFactory("http://localhost:8080");
			BimServerClient client = factory.create(new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationInfo("admin@bimserver.org", "admin"));
			
			SProject newProject = client.getServiceInterface().addProject("Test Project", "ifc2x3tc1");
			System.out.println(newProject.getOid());
		} catch (BimServerClientException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (ServiceException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (ChannelConnectionException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
}
