Hi all,

Probably stating the super obvious here, but distributing code as a
package, stored in a directory, with a top level __init__.py per package
would be my preferred approach.

See: http://mikegrouchy.com/blog/2012/05/be-pythonic-__init__py.html

Doing it in a package-way would allow nuBridge to do a validation step at
the top-level __init__.py file, to check for required things like: 'docs',
'version', 'description', 'author', 'copyright' etc.

Hiero+NukeStudio put all auto-scanned Python packages containing a
__init__.py (found in .nuke/Python/Startup) into a hiero.plugins
<https://docs.thefoundry.co.uk/hiero/10/hieropythondevguide/setup.html>.*
namespace... So plonking these into nuke.nuBridgePlugins, might be
something to consider?

If there's a Google Doc link I'd be happy to check it out and contribute!

Cheers,
A
