Usage

Initialization Code

tpDccLib must be initialized before being used.

import tpDccLib
tpDccLib.init()

Reloading

For development purposes, you can enable reloading system, so you can reload tpDccLib sources without the necessity of restarting your Python session. Useful when working with DCCs.

import tpDccLib
reload(tpDccLib)
tpDccLib.init(True)

Enabling debug log

By default, tpDccLib logger only logs warning messages. To enable all log messages you can set TPDCCLIB_DEV environment variables to ‘True’

import os

os.environ['TPDCCLIB_DEV'] = 'True'
import tpDccLib
tpDccLib.init()
