Re: [Nuke-users] OCIO frustrations
Technically environment variables can't change for a running process.. but Python stores them as a mutable os.environ dictionary. However, OCIO doesn't track changes to Python's os.environ dict, thus the unfortunate behaviour you are seeing. The solution to this is using the Context tab on any OCIO node. These override the environment variables, and can evaluate expressions such as [getenv ...] or [metadata ...] as Andy mentioned. We use $JOB/$SEQ/$SHOT in most of our configs, so we do this by default: ocio_nodes = [OCIODisplay, OCIOColorSpace, OCIOLookTransform] for nodename in ocio_nodes: for num, envvar in enumerate((JOB, SEQ, SHOT)): num += 1 nuke.knobDefault(%s.key%d % (nodename, num), envvar) nuke.knobDefault(%s.value%d % (nodename, num), [getenv %s] % envvar) ..which sets the default for key1=JOB and value=[getenv JOB] on each of the OCIO nodes, and same for $SEQ and $SHOT This should be mentioned in the docs, I've made a ticket about updating the docs in this regard, https://github.com/imageworks/OpenColorIO/issues/371 On 16/08/14 08:23, Ned Wilson wrote: Hello all, Like many of you, I am working inside a pipeline where the client provides a separate CDL file for each shot. In order to view these properly, the files must be first in Alexa Log colorspace, and then a CDL is applied, followed by a 3D LUT file. One of the things that OCIO seems to mention frequently in the documentation is its ability to recognize context/environment variables. So, you can look for ${SEQ}/${SHOT}/grade/${SHOT}.cdl and apply it, in theory, as part of an OCIO config. The only problem is, it would appear that OCIO only calculates these variables ONCE at application startup? I have scripts that run when the onScriptLoad event handler is triggered that alter these environment variables based on the script that is opened. However, it would appear that OCIO is not listening for any changes to the environment variables while Nuke is running? Do I have this right? If not, what am I doing wrong? -n ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users -- ben dickson 2D TD | ben.dick...@rsp.com.au rising sun pictures | www.rsp.com.au ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users

Are you sure zyncrender has stopped? I just used them in March, and I didn't get any notifications from them about service stopping. They are great, and super easy to set up.
