shortCopy v1.3

Perhaps some of you agree with how annoying it is to share a very large nuke node through email or messenger.

Here's a simple python script to help people more easily share nuke nodes with a short URL style. 

Copy anything as usual !

and Share it !

How to install:

1. Download the attached python file into your nuke-readable directory such as .nuke

2. Modify a couple of variables in the python file:

KEYWORD_URL = 'company'  # you can use any strings here
SERVER_SAVE_PATH = '/path/to/save'  # Set a shareable network directory

3. Add the codes below to your menu.py

import shortCopy
menu.addCommand('Edit/Short Copy', 'shortCopy.short_copy()', 'ctrl+shift+c', index=5)
nukescripts.addDropDataCallback(shortCopy.dropShortCopy)

How to use:

Once you install the script, 'Short Copy' menu will be registered to Nuke menu > Edit > ShortCopy (Ctrl+Shift+C)

1. Select some nodes and copy them via Ctrl(Command) + Shift + C

2. Share a copied short URL via Ctrl + V

scpy://nukepedia/name-200615092155964.nk

3. Other users can import the nodes by pasting the short URL in Nuke
