Flip a build and keep node orientation

I need to flip a massive build 180 degrees so that east is west and west is east. I need the node orientation to flip as well.It is my understanding that World Edit is not capable of doing this yet (although some pull requests claim they fix this).
What is the fastest way to go about doing it?

My handle_schematics mod is capable of placing saved buildings in a rotated way. I do some things there that are more costly than more plain methods like e.g. the inbuild minetest.place_schematic code. You might want to give the build chest from my mod a chance as long as the building is not too massive. What size does it have?

I did the pull request and used it a lot. Only some nodes are not rotated correctly (I'm not sure with panes, some bushes...).
You should have a try with the pull request version.

So I used pyrollos work, I had some troubles with some nodes, but I realized that my build has a lot of symmetry and flipping it both x and z resulted in what I wanted. If the build was assymentrical it wouldn't of worked.

Great !
If you can, please list nodes (and mods) that gave you troubles with. Improvements can be made
