Texture not showing on mesh and on render

[Anonymous]

Hey people,

version: maya 2018.3 Windows10
I am having an issue where I want to map a image sequence onto my object but somewhere it decides not to apply the actual texture. I have to do this exact action below to fix it but am wondering if I can't do that code wise.
Using python but I can work with MEL a bit.

 #Search for img
 imgPath = cmds.fileDialog2(fileMode=1, fileFilter="*.tif")
 img = imgPath[0]
 textureName = img.split('/')
 textureName = textureName[len(textureName)-1]
 textureName = textureName.split('.')[0]
 print textureName
 #create a shader
 shader=cmds.shadingNode("surfaceShader",asShader=True,name="imgSequenceShader")
 #a file texture node
 file_node=cmds.shadingNode("file",asTexture=True ,name="imgSequence")
 # a shading group
 shading_group= cmds.sets(renderable=True,noSurfaceShader=True,empty=True)
 #connect shader to sg surface shader
 cmds.connectAttr('%s.outColor' %shader ,'%s.surfaceShader' %shading_group)
 #connect file texture node to shader's color
 cmds.connectAttr('%s.outColor' %file_node,'%s.outColor' %shader)
 
 cmds.setAttr('imgSequence.useFrameExtension' ,1)
 #a UV node
 uv_node=cmds.shadingNode("uvChooser",asUtility =True ,name="UV")
 #connect UV node to file node
 cmds.connectAttr('%s.outUv' %uv_node,'%s.uvCoord' %file_node)

 cmds.setAttr( '%s.fileTextureName' % file_node, img, type = "string")

If this is fixed my script is flawless so it would be a big favor you do for me!

I fixed it , I just had to reload the textures using this code!

from maya import cmds

#set up all the shadernodes and assign it to the mesh before

#reload the textures
files = cmds.ls(type='file') 
    for file in files:
        fileName = cmds.getAttr(file+'.fileTextureName') 
        cmds.setAttr(file+'%s.fileTextureName' , type = fileName)

Apparently I was wrong, still having the same issue..
