We enforce cross-platform compatibility using environment variables
($ENV_VAR/path) in our file dependencies. It seems like Nuke (which
we're just starting to use on our farm), doesn't expand variables by
default - only when set as:
[getenv ENV_VAR]/path
I'm aware that there are other ways to resolve filepaths in Nuke, but
I'm curious why "$ENV_VAR" isn't supported - apparently Nuke
recognizes that "$" designates a variable. If you use:
$ENV_VAR/path
in a file knob in Nuke, the error comes up as "can't read ENV_VAR: no
such variable".
Am I missing something basic here? Our compositing pipeline was
previously based around Shake, which had no problems expanding
variables in filepaths...
Cheers,
Daniel
