A unique identifier library for Nuke. UUIDs are stored on nodes and therefore
persist Nuke sessions. UUIDs can be used to track nodes throughout the
compositing process.

Installation
------------

To install ``nukeuuid``, type:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ pip install nukeuuid

Open Nuke's ``init.py`` file and add:

.. code-block:: python

    nuke.pluginAddPath('/path/to/your/local/python/site-packages')

Getting Started
---------------

To get started with ``nukeuuid``, type in the Nuke Script Editor:

.. code-block:: python

    import nukeuuid

Define a dictionary of UUIDs to be set, with the keys defining the UUID name
and the values defining the UUID values.

.. code-block:: python

    kw = {'': 'fca7201e-b53d-4918-9ab0-bb4ec5590f3c',
          'utility': '5f2d525d-3e00-4bc5-88c4-794ad87f5699'}

To create and set the UUID attributes on a node (or a list of nodes), type:

.. code-block:: python

    nukeuuid.set(node, **kw)

To retrieve all nodes matching a specific UUID pattern, type:

.. code-block:: python

    kw = {'': 'fca7201e-b53d-4918-9ab0-bb4ec5590f3c',
          'utility': '5f2d525d-3e00-4bc5-88c4-794ad87f5699'}
    matched_nodes = nukeuuid.get_nodes(**kw)
