Integration for Meshroom in Prism and Pandora

I've been doing some work with Alicevision Meshroom recently and would love to see integrations with Prism and Pandora.

Thanks!

This tool seems to become quite popular in the last time. However, I couldn't find anything about a Python API or developer documentation. That means it could be necessary to browse the Meshroom sourcecode to find the functions needed for the Prism integration. That could be a lot more difficult than integrating Prism in a tool like Nuke or Maya, which is well documented. I haven't used Meshroom yet, so maybe it's easier than I think, but it depends on how easy it is to extend Meshroom with python scripts.

I saw that Houdini got a free Alicevision plugin recently: https://www.sidefx.com/tutorials/alicevision-plugin/

As long as there is no native Prism integration for Meshroom, maybe a combination of the free Houdini Apprentice, Prism and the Alicevision plugin could be a good workflow.

I added support for Meshroom to the feature list [0089]

I'm sorry I'm just seeing this now. I have to look into the command api's a while ago. It is a PyQt interface for passing commandline arguments for the raw Alicevision library. Might be a good candidate for Pandora. I'll look into it again and see what I find.

Thanks for adding it to the feature list.

Cheers!
