Repository files navigation

This repository is for the Houdini Toolbox.

Library Versions

This repository will generally closely follow the VFX Platform versions matching the most recently released version of Houdini.

Legacy (Python 2.7) Support

Python 2.7 compatible code is still available in the python2.7 branch.


Installation

This project primarily uses rez in order to build and package itself, including compiled HDK plugins and Qt resources.

That said, if you want to use it without those, in order to use most of the features contained in this repo it is necessary to add/modify certain entries in your environment:

  • HOUDINI_PATH
  • PYTHONPATH

Using Houdini Packages

The easiest way to get this working is to use Houdini Packages.

Simply add the location of this repository to $HOUDINI_PACKAGE_DIR in order for Houdini to find the package definition and load it.
