| Parent: ygNode | Example | Source code | Header file |
A pyNode loads a Python script and creates an object of a class defined in that script. The script can perform any standard Python operations; additional modules (ygdrasil and ygNode) are defined to provide interfaces to Ygdrasil features.
The Python object's app() function will be called once per frame, by pyNode::app().
| script | string [, string] | load a Python script and create an object |
| reload | reload the script previously loaded by script | |
| autoReset | bool | tell the node to automatically reset any time the script file is modified |
| call | string | call a function on the Python object |
See pyInterface for details on what these messages do.
pyNode itself does not generate any events. The Python scripts can generate their own events, however.
None.
All of pyNode's behavior is actually implemented in the class pyInterface; each pyNode node creates a pyInterface object to handle all the Python code. This is done so that other Python-node classes can also use the pyInterface class, since they cannot be derived from pyNode (e.g., pyTransform is derived from ygTransform).
