Hi Greg, Yeah I've heard lots of people talking about Ruby.....I should check it out. I've really found Python easy to get into and incredibly quick to develop code in. While it's true that you don't really need OOP for submitting stuff, when I worked at the Creature Shop it really made it easier to integrate things into the pipeline. A simple Python submit script would be brilliant...I'm afraid Perl sends shivers up my spine. I've sent you a separate email to this one with attached the command line documentation for sequence publisher and a list of the subset of options we are interested in here to save you as much work as possible! Forget about the quicktime generation thing...sequence publisher doesn't support this. Thanks loads...

The code for submit-generic is probably not as good a starting point for making a new script, since it's highly specialized to embed commands into various shells and stuff. A better starting point might be a script like submit-shake, or submit-nuke. > Managed to get it to look pretty much how I want with all the required > fields.

I'm kind of waiting to see if either Ruby or Python jumps out at me. The submit scripts don't have any need for OOP really, so they can be written in just about any scripting language. > Is there a Python version of the submit-generic script? No, and I'm not sure a python version of submit-generic would be as helpful as a python version of one of the other scripts. What I might do is make a simple Python example script that shows how to submit a job through Rush. > A GUI for this sort of thing would be really cool.

(ie. does it show anything when you type 'publisher -help') I can write it, but it'll be in Perl in order to be releasable with the rest of rush. > We'd love it if you could knock one up for us.

Yes, received -- I'll check it out. A simple Python submit script would be brilliant...I'm afraid Perl sends shivers up my spine. As soon as I learn enough of python, I'll post something ;) I've been flipping through the O'Reilly book. The 'here document' stuff had me guessing for a while, but I think I've got it solved with: bgcolor = "#222255" fgcolor = "#ffffff" print """ <html> <body bgcolor=%(bgcolor)s> <font color=%(fgcolor)s>Testing</font> """ % locals() If there's a better way to embed variables in """'ed text, let me know. -- Greg Ercolano, erco@(email surpressed) Rush Render Queue, http://seriss.com/rush/ Tel: (Tel# suppressed) Cel: (Tel# suppressed) Fax: (Tel# suppressed) |
