drop clips from RV's session manager into Nuke's DAG
Requirements:
6.2, 6.3 or later
Linux, Mac, Windows
10 Apr 2012

1.3: fixed indentation error

1.2: this should make it workable on windows as well. I haven't been able to test it, so please leave feedback if there are any problems.

1.1: some fixes to support various padding formats as well as white spaces in file names

 

This enables Nuke to receive data that was dragged out of RV's session manager to create Read nodes.
Right now only RV's source entities are supported.

Haha - looks like we had the same in mind. We pretty much did the same thing here. It a very cool way to "browser&import " footage.

Hi Frank, this would be quite useful but I'm getting these errors when I try to open Nuke. I've tried moving your commented notes to a different line and everything, nothing seems to work other than just moving the error to a different area of the script.
------------------------------------
File "C:/Users/Sikam ore Studios/.nukevD ropping.py", line 16
reMatch = re.match( r'.+{"(.+)"}', d ) #GET FILE PATH FORM RV SYNTAX
^
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level
--------------------------------------

any ideas?

Hi Travis,

sorry about that, there was indeed a stray tab in line 15 that caused the error. I have corrected and re-uploaded, so give that a try and let me know if it works for you now.

Thanks! Yeah, I suppose had I been viewing that in a proper code based text editor it would have been more visibly obvious.

glad it works now. Not every editor makes this problem apparent. I use Wing, which is awesome as in many ways and warns you if it finds mixed (and therefore invalid) indentation. It also lets you convert the document to unify indentation and fix those kind of problems very easily. I obviously must have used something else when I saved out this script for Nukepedia :-D

Frank,

It might be nice to add support for dragging in 'rvlink' urls too. something like this:


if text.startswith ( 'rvlink' ):
print 'this is an rvlink file :-)'

decodeURL = urllib.url2path name(text)
filePath = decodeURL.strip ().split(' ')[-1]
cleanPath = nukescripts.rep laceHashes(file Path)
padRE = re.compile('%0( d+)d')
padMatch = padRE.search(cl eanPath)

if padMatch:
padSize = int(padMatch.gr oup(1))
frameList = sorted(glob.igl ob(padRE.sub('[ 0-9]' * padSize, cleanPath)))
first = os.path.splitex t(frameList[0]) [0][-padSize:]
last = os.path.splitex t(frameList[-1] )[0][-padSize:]

# CREATE THE READ NODE
r = nuke.createNode ( 'Read', 'file {%s}' % ( cleanPath ), inpanel=False )
try:
r['first'].setV alue( int(first) )
r['last'].setVa lue( int(last) )
r['origfirst']. setValue( int(first) )
r['origlast'].s etValue( int(last) )
except:
pass
return True

thanks Brian, will look into it on monday

Hi Brian, I just had a quick look and when I decode a rvlink here I just get the same (encoded) string back. Nothing I can parse for file names or frame ranges. How did you get your example to work?

Frank,

when I looked into it, rv has two ways to encode files -bakedURL and -encodeURL. if you have a bakedURL you can use something like this to decode:

filePath = '/Volumes/VFX/J OBS/12020/1ST_V ERSE_SCN_090.d .exr' # original file
bakedURL = 'rvlink://baked/207276202d6c202d706c6179202f566f6c756d65732f5646582f4a4f42532f31323032302f3153545f56455253455f53434e5f3039302e253035642e657872'
print 'rvlink://'+bakedURL.split('/')[-1].decode("hex")

If you have an encodeURL you can use urllib.url2path name() to decode the rvlink url like this:

encodedURL = 'rvlink:// rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JOBS/12020/1ST_VERSE_SCN_090.-).exr'
print urllib.url2pathname(encodedURL)

The problem I found using encodedURL is that nuke's frame padding d looks like a web encoded character so rv encodes/decodes it like this:

Brian-MacPro-Dev:~ kidb$ rv rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d. exr -encodeURL
INFO: command line for encoding ' rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d. exr'
Encoded URL: rvlink:// rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d. exr
Brian-MacPro-Dev:~ kidb$ rv rvlink:// rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d. exr
INFO: received URL 'rvlink:// rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d. exr'
INFO: decoded URL 'rvlink:// rv -l -play /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d.e xr'
ERROR: Cannot access file rv (0)
No files in sequence /Volumes/VFX/JO BS/12020/1ST_VE RSE_SCN_090.d.e xr (1)

the % in the padding needs to be converted to ascii hex which is % so when I was generating my email I was doing this to encode the path separately:

newFilePath = urllib.pathname2url(filePath)
...html email stuff...

Path to Frames:

%(filePath)s



I could work on some code for baked/encoded rvlink url handling if you like.

ha! guess my html email stuff was processed, what I ment was basically this minus the tags.

Path to Frames:
href="rvlink: -l -play %(newFilePath)s ">%(filePath)s

I see. I am quite busy at the moment so won't have time to look into this now, but if you want to prep something I am more than happy to update my script with it.
