Convoy

An asset framework for Pyblish, based on conventions.

Convoy is meant as a starting point for newcomers to Pyblish and illustrates its use in the simplest fashion possible and is not meant for production.

Features

• Dynamic Selection

  • Convo looks at what you currently have selected and makes decisions based on type and name.

• Zero setup

  • To get started, initialise Convo within your host and start publishing; no setup or configuration required.

• By node type

  • Make extractions based on the type of node currently selected. E.g. meshes are extracted as obj, transforms with animation are exported as ATOM and deformed geometry as Alembic. Selection sets select all descendants.

• By suffix

  • A node with suffix "_RIG" is treated as a rig, whereas one with "_AST" is treated as a generic asset.

• By combination

  • A mesh with suffix "_GEO" is exported as .mb and .abc whereas a mesh with "_PLY" is exported as .obj
