Installation

To install, unzip the file and place the “NSP” folder inside your .nuke folder. You will then need to add the following line to your .nuke/init.py file:

 

nuke.pluginAddPath(‘NSP’)

 

If you don’t know how to find your .nuke folder, check out this guide:

What is Nuke Simple Pipeline?

Nuke Simple Pipeline (NSP) is a custom addon for Nuke that creates some of the automatic features a compositor would expect to have in a studio environment. It accomplishes this by adding several python tools that require minimal user input. These tools allow for:

 

-Automatic script name generation and saving

-Automatic read/write node creation and naming

-Always using relative file paths if possible

-Always forcing write versions to match script versions

-Having a User and Show context

 

Because all paths are relative, projects created with NSP are extremely portable. You should be able to copy and paste the project folder into a completely different system, and the script will still run normally. You don’t even have to change the project directory since it is procedurally generated relative to the script location. Of course for the script to work, the elements need to actually exist inside the project directory, but any read node created from an element inside the project directory will always use a relative path.
