collectFiles

Identical to After Effects 'Collect Files' feature. Used to backup a comp.

HOW TO USE IT

  • Tools -> Utils -> Collect Files
  • Choose destination folder.
  • If field is left empty, destination folder will be Natron's default cache folder.
- Windows : C:/Users/user/AppData/Local/INRIA/Natron/cache
- Linux : home/user/.cache/INRIA/Natron
- OSX : home/user/.cache/INRIA/Natron

RESULT

Comp and all files used in Node Graph get gathered in one place. All 'Read' nodes are relinked to their new file location. Opens new folder location.

NOTE :

  • Linux : Default explorer used in script is 'thunar'. Replace it in script (line 188) by the one of your Linux distro.

INSTALLATION

  • Copy 'collectFiles' folder in your .Natron folder.
  • Add following lines to your 'initGui.py' file, where <path> is the location of 'collectFiles' folder.
from <path>.collectFiles.collectFiles import *
NatronGui.natron.addMenuCommand('Tools/Utils/Collect files','collectFiles()')
