SG-43811 migrate flow write node by yungsiow · Pull Request #135 · shotgunsoftware/tk-nuke

yungsiow · 2026-06-29T16:41:07Z

Summary: Port the FlowWrite node implementation in Nuke of POC to Nuke engine, and adapt the user flow more in line with existing SG Write node.

Details:

Added FlowWriteNode class to Nuke engine
Kept original create and pre-render callbacks attached to node to ensure node is created under the right conditions, and renders go to the right place
Removed the post-render callback that published renders to Flow - this will be handled via the Publisher app from now on
Ensured the Nuke collector detects FlowWrite node renders and types them correctly, storing pertinent information in publish item about the FlowWrite renders
Add a publish script for FlowWrite nodes specifically which will do some post processing on the node after the publish is complete
During NukeHost initialization, register the FlowWrite node in the tab menu of Nuke and hook up callbacks

- added .flake8 config copied from tk-core - added vim lock files to .gitignore - implemented NukeHost subclass of FlowHost NOTE: FlowWrite node will be ported in a separate ticket - instantiate NukeHost during engine set up

- add custom FlowWriteNode class to flowam module - collect renders of FlowWriteNodes in publisher - post-publish add asset id back to FlowWrite node and save file

Left some questions :)

Sorry I am not quite understand nuke hooks here. I am wondering why we need two different publish hooks? Are they get triggered differently?

Yes, and my understanding is also not great. The original one only deals with Nuke "session" publishes - i.e. nuke script files. The item filter only accepts these. And since I need specific publish behaviour for the renders (which is different than scripts) - specifically a bit of post processing - the way to ensure I can "catch" those publishes is by creating a custom publisher which does the normal generic publish, but then some extra functionality after. Hope that makes sense!

Thanks for the explanation. I am thinking should we move nuke_flow_write_publish_script.py inside nuke_publish_script.py and use context to check if we trigger flowam logic for nuke script publish workflow?
In this case, user don't need to update their config to add a new hook to be able to use flowam logic (same as collector.py/pre_publish.py/publish_file.py in native tk-multi-publsih2).
What do you think?

+
+        self.logger.info("Registering global callbacks for Write nodes...")
+        nuke.addKnobChanged(FlowWriteNode._on_update_flow_write, nodeClass="Write")


Do we need to remove registered callback on tear down? Would this registered callback accumulate?

Yes this is a good idea. I haven't been doing that in the host code and probably should. Let me look into that!

+        # Check for mandatory properties
+        if not write_node["asset_name"].value().strip():
+            nuke.message("Asset Name must be set.")


I am wondering why we need two messages here. Does nuke.message display differently?

Yes I think Nuke.message() pops up a little dialog.

I believe the code style validation check if failing.
