class ShaderNodeMacroRef

A ShaderNodeMacroRef is a ShaderNodeMacro which is loaded from a file, as a reference

Hierarchy

class ShaderNodeMacroRef < class ShaderNodeMacro < class ReferenceBase < class ShaderNode < class HostNode < class SelectableNode < class Node

Members

Inherited from class ShaderNodeMacro

Methods:

ShaderNodeOut output addoutput ( ) create a new output

Inherited from class ReferenceBase

Plugs:

boolean LoadHostReferences WR If true, load the sub host references (references with no prefixes).
boolean Loaded R Tells if the reference is loaded or not. Must not be modified direclty.
string ReferenceActualFileName R The actual path of the referenced file, in case the reference path had to be resolved
string ReferenceFileName R The path of the referenced file
string ReferencePathOverride R The path override, so it possible to load another file instead of the original file

Methods:

#bool result reload ( string filename , [ table|nil options ] ) Reload the reference from disk. Using the filename argument, the method will switch the reference for another one. The edits (modifications done on the reference) are re-applied after the reload.
#bool result unload ( ) For internal use only.

Inherited from class ShaderNode

Plugs:

string Code RW The shader node default BOOTS code
string CodeRT RW The shader node BOOTS code specialized for OpenGL
boolean Collapsed RW The shader node collapse state, true for collapsed, false for expanded
{float,float} NodePos RW The shader node position in shader view

Methods:

ShaderNodeIn aov addaov ( ) create a new aov
ShaderNode result addnode ( string filename ) add a node into a shader node by its filename
ShaderNodeIn input createinput ( string name , type type ) Create a new input
ShaderNodeOut input createoutput ( string name ) Create a new output
nil fillnodefooter ( table template ) Fill the template footer with custom attributes
nil fillnodeinputstemplate ( table template ) Fill the template with inputs and ouputs extended controls
nil fillnodetemplate ( table template ) Fill the template with custom attributes
nil fillnodetemplatefooter ( table template ) Fill the template with standard node template footer, like inputs and outputs settings
nil fillnodetemplateheader ( table template ) Fill the template with standard node template header, like inputs
ShaderNodeIn input getinput ( string name ) Gets a child ShaderNodeIn plug by its display name
ShaderNodeOut input getoutput ( string name ) Gets a child ShaderNodeOut plug by its display name
nil removeinput ( string name ) Remove an input
nil removeoutput ( string name ) Remove an output

Inherited from class HostNode

Plugs:

types.string HostPath RW The data archive to read HostPlugs value when baked

Methods:

nil deleteinheritedattr ( string plugname ) Delete an inherited attribute plug from the node
nil overrideinheritedattr ( string plugname , any value ) Override the attribute
nil setinheritedattr ( string plugname , [bool|nil] inherited , [ any value ] ) Set the inheritance status of the attribute

Inherited from class SelectableNode

Plugs:

boolean Selected R True if the node is selected. Don't use this plug directly to select a node, use the Document's modifier select method.

Inherited from class Node

Plugs:

string Name RW The node name

Methods:

bool result belongstoreference ( Reference ref ) Tells if the node belongs to the reference, or a sub reference
nil delete ( ) Delete a node
any value eval ( Plug plug ) Called by the framework when plug (a node's plug) must be evaluated
Node|Plug child findchild ( string path ) Find a child node or plug using a path
Node parent findparent ( string name ) Find the first parent Node of this Node of a specific class
Node result getchild ( string name ) Get a child node by its name
[string|number] name getname ( ) Get the Node name in its parent
Node parent getparent ( ) Get the parent Node of this Node
string path getpath ( ) Returns the node path as a string that can be reused with findchild
Reference reference getreference ( ) Returns the reference node it is connected to
of table getreferences ( [ topref Reference ] ) Returns the references in the document sorted depth first.
string result getstringcopy ( ) Return a copy of the node and its content as a string to be pasted
Reference reference gettopreference ( ) Returns the top reference node it is connected to
boolean editable iseditable ( ) Indicates if the node can be edited by the user in the UI
boolean indocument isindocument ( ) Tells if the node is inside a document, or is pending in the void
bool result ismoveable ( ) Tells if the node can be moved
boolean result isparent ( Node child ) Tells if this node is parent of the potential child
boolean result isreference ( ) Tells if a node comes from a reference project
boolean state isselected ( ) Tell if the node is selected
{Node} result loadfile ( string filename , [ table options ] ) load a file content in this node. Possible options are: overrideclass to enforce a specific class for the root node.
Node result loadtemplate ( string template , string name ) load a template file
nil move ( Node parent ) Move a node to a new parent
nil onpathchanged ( ) Called by the framework when the name of this node or of one of its parent is modified
{Node},string result,error pastestringcopy ( string copy , [ {} options ] ) Paste a string copy into this node
ReferenceBase refnode referencefile ( string name , string refpath , [ table options ] ) reference a file content in this node.
