best way to use pcore funtionality in natron / nuke ( python ) custom scripts

#1 · 8. October 2020, 6:11

Hi,

i am trying to upgrade old process (python scripts) that works within nuke / natron to include (work with prism).
i see my old libs works in nuke / natron as lmLib and also feel that in same console, i can use pcore as well.
how exactly i can import pcore in my own python script / modules.?? i need pcore.projectPath working in my scripts.

thanks in advance. regards,haseeb

Hey Haseeb,

pcore is defined in the .nuke/menu.py. If you are loading your tools from the same file or the script editor you can simply do something like this in the menu.py:

import myTool
myTool.init(pcore)

Alternatively you could create a new PrismCore instance in your tool (But I'd prefer the first way).

import PrismCore
pcore = PrismCore.PrismCore(app="Nuke")
