Importing Python Script change Vred Filename

[ionmcains]

Hi,

When I use vrFileIOService to import a python script the name of the VRED file I'm using change to the script filename

##################

import_node = vrNodeService.findNode('Root')

files = ['C:/myfile.py']

result = vrFileIOService.importFiles(files, import_node)

#############

Is there other way to do this or avoid this issue?

Is there a better workflow to share code among all the team members in a centralized mode?

Thanks and regards

Hi, if you have Vred Pro the best way is to create some ScriptPlugins. You can use a shared directory for all your team members.

https://help.autodesk.com/view/VREDPRODUCTS/2024/ENU/?guid=4Tutorial-VREDPro

you can use the environment variable VRED_SCRIPT_PLUGINS in every workstation

If you have Vred Design you can put your code in the Script section of the preferences.

and if you want to share some preferences, including the script section, you can use this environment variable: 

VRED_PREFERENCES_OVERRIDE

(it works for bot Pro and Design)

Hi,

Do you know how I can solve the change of the file name on import?

Thanks a lot for the distribution info

Hi, the only way i found is to use the V1 API vrFileIO.load()

result = vrFileIO.load(['C:/temp/myfile.py'], vrNodeService.findNode('Root'), False, False)

maybe this can help you.

Best

Here is my workaround.

def vredMainWindow():

    main_window_ptr = vrVredUi.getMainWindow()

    return wrapInstance(int(main_window_ptr), QtWidgets.QMainWindow)

def set_title_after_import(*args😞

    """Window title is set, but file name and directory - not.

    So model's name is shown as '__main__.vpb' in the save dialog.

    """

    # os.chdir(os.path.dirname(fpath)) # NOTE does not work

    # os.environ['VRED_CURRENT_PROJECT_DIR'] = os.path.dirname(fpath) # NOTE does not work

    # os.environ['VRED_PROJECT_DIR'] = os.path.dirname(fpath) # NOTE does not work

    # print(vrFileIO.getFileIOBaseDir()) # NOTE no function setFileIOBaseDir

    # print(vrFileIO.getFileIOFilePath()) # NOTE no function setFileIOFilePath

    w = vredMainWindow()

    w.setWindowTitle('Previously saved title')

vrFileIOService.fileLoadingFinished.connect(set_title_after_import)

vrFileIOService.importFiles(['__main__.py'],

    vrSceneplateService.getRootNode(), loadConvertedAtfFiles=False,

    removeConvertedAtfFiles=False, loadBehavior=False)
