sequencer

sequencer.offset_scene(sequencer_info=None, shot_code=None, target_start=None, offset=0, delete_sequencer=True, sk='', context='')

Offset the scene animation by the given offset, or by using the shot_code from an NReal sequencer_info json file that can be generated using the sequencer_to_json()

Parameters:

• sequencer_info – sequence info json file
• shot_code – the code of the target shot, based on this code, the offset will be detected from the sequencer_info file (so, sequencer_info and shot_code should both be provided).
• target_start – the start frame the given shot should start from (by default this will be queried from the current animation task shot information in melGlobals)
• offset – if no sequencer_info and shot_code are provided, the offset value will be used to offset the animation.
• delete_sequencer – if True, the sequencer and shots will be deleted after succeeding with the offsetting operation

Returns:

status

sequencer.sequencer_to_json(sequencer_info, sequencer=None, scene_code=None)

Write maya sequencer information into json file format:

{
    "sequencer":    <sequencer_name>,
    "scene_code":   <scene_code>,
    "duration":     <duration_in_frames>,
    "shots":
        [
            {
                "shot":         <shot_code>,
                "camera":       <camera_name>,
                "start_frame":  <start_frame>,
                "end_frame":    <end_frame>,
                "seq_IN_frame": <sequence_start_frame>,
                "seq_OUT_frame": <sequence_end_frame>
            },
            ....
        ]
}

Parameters:

• sequencer_info – file path for the json file to be generated
• sequencer – maya sequencer name
• scene_code – if not preset, it will be queried from the current task

Returns:
