And Frank has just requested that too :)

Thanks!

I totally get that, Just curious, and that seems like it should be a switch in rendering when you want to render local and use localized files to render. It's it kind of pain to setup proxy for any decent amount of reads for sure. Maybe this should be a feature request :-)

    I want to force Nuke to use the local cache when I render in the
    background. Auto localise works great for interactive sessions
    but Nuke doesn’t use the local cache when you render from the
    command line.

    So if I submit the job in proxy mode and use the local file as
    the proxy, I can force it to bypass the network. It’s a hack but
    it work very well for my situation. At the moment I’m adding the
    proxy path manually and it’s a pain :)

    Do you need to do it like that? Auto localize doesn't work in
    this situation?  It won't populate the proxy input but it will
    use the localized file vs the server file. Then set the read to
    Cache locally always.   I'm sure you know all this but just
    throwing it out.  Since doing this can take quite some time on
    big shots on the wrong network.

        I’m trying to populate the proxy path of a read node
        automatically with the local cache path of the file.

        So If the read node is pointing at:
        */Volumes/RAID/project/file.exr* I want the proxy path to be
        */localcacheFolder/_Volumes/RAID/project/file.exr*
        *
        *
        In a perfect world, I’d have this in the nuke menu and I’d
        have “add localized cache to proxy path”  and “remove
        localized cache from proxy path”

        I have an easy way to add a local folder in front of the
        file path but I’m stuck because of the underscore that is
        added in front of “Volumes” in the local cache folder

        So if I put this in the proxy path: */localcacheFolder[knob
        file] *it almost works except for that underscore thing. Is
        there a way to skip the first folder of the [knob file]?

        cheers
