Access data from the plugin job info file

Deadline
1

I would like to access the ‘RenderOutput’ string from the plugin job info file.

I cannot browse the output for certain jobs and I want to make a python script that I can access via deadline that opens up the direc where the files are rendering to. At the moment they all point to 'D:\temp". And render out to the RenderOutput location in the plug job info file.

Is there a way?

thanks!

You should be able to use the GetCurrentPluginValue function here:
thinkboxsoftware.com/deadlin … _Utilities

For example, if you want to get “RenderOutput” for the first job in the list of selected jobs, you can use this:

outputPath = JobUtils.GetCurrentPluginValue( 0, "RenderOutput" )

Simple as that, I should have looked harder though the site before. Thanks again Ryan.
