Logos 7 API

Hi,

Does Logos 7 still include an API. I found an old page with info for Logos 4 COM API, but that reference library is no longer included with Logos 7. I'd like to create a custom macro in Word that will grab Bible verses from Logos. I am aware of the SmartTags extension for Word, but I'd like to do my own thing.

Thank you,

Evan

Hi,

Logos 7 does still work with the API. It is located on Windows in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Logos\System\LogosCom.exe

You can Reference LogosCom.exe from VBA using the browse button.

Hope this help

'When using the Launcher the Logos Logo popup
'To avoid this make Logos a global variable and connect only once

Sub ToStartUsingLauncher()
    Dim Launcher As LogosLauncher
    Dim Logos As LogosApplication

    Set Launcher = New LogosLauncher
    Launcher.LaunchApplication

    While Logos Is Nothing
        Set Logos = Launcher.Application
    Wend

    Dim CopyBibleVerses As LogosCopyBibleVerses
    Dim LogosCopyBibleVersesRequest As LogosCopyBibleVersesRequest
    Dim LogosDataTypeParsedReferenceCollection As LogosDataTypeParsedReferenceCollection
    Dim LogosDataTypeParsedReference As LogosDataTypeParsedReference

    Set CopyBibleVerses = Logos.CopyBibleVerses
    Set LogosCopyBibleVersesRequest = CopyBibleVerses.CreateRequest

    Text = "Get the References fro Gen 1:1 and Mat 1:1"
    Set LogosDataTypeParsedReferenceCollection = _
        Logos.DataTypes.GetDataType("bible").ScanForReferences(Text)

    For Each LogosDataTypeParsedReference In LogosDataTypeParsedReferenceCollection
        'ref = LogosDataTypeParsedReference.Reference.Render("long")
        LogosCopyBibleVersesRequest.Reference = LogosDataTypeParsedReference.Reference
        Debug.Print CopyBibleVerses.GetText(LogosCopyBibleVersesRequest)
    Next

End Sub

I don't have that file. I'm guessing that it's a legacy file left over from an older version of Logos. My machine has a fresh installation of 7.

Have you checked out all the links on this page in the wiki?

I freshly installed the latest version of Logos 7 on 15 March, and I have that file.
