Does this callback solve your "right before render" problem?

http://docs.thefoundry.co.uk/nuke/90/pythondevguide/callbacks.html?highlight=beforerender


As for calling something during render, well Nuke provides the
executeInMainThread() set of functions, NOTE: these only work in GUI mode:

http://docs.thefoundry.co.uk/nuke/90/pythondevguide/threading.html?highlight=executeinmainthread


Otherwise, the problem is a standard threading issue, i.e. you could spawn
a thread when you receive beforeRender() to do some tertiary work and kill
it on afterRender(). However, if you want to communicate with Nuke from a
custom thread whilst in render/terminal mode you may experience some
problems calling non-thread safe interfaces (e.g. nuke.createNode()), which
is something we hope to fix in the not to distant future.

Does that answer you question? :)
