Start TVPaint with a python script and run a .grg script Topic is solved

[Lukas]

What's the default folder for george scripts if you want to run a script from the command line?
edit: nevermind I found the folder.

How do I run the script on startup on mac and linux trough the command line?

Have you had any success with this?

I posted an example of this on the technical support forum the other day:

Code: Select all

import os
from subprocess import call

#path to tvpaint executable
#tvpaint_path = '"C:\Tvpaint.exe"'
tvpaint_path = '"/Applications/TVPaint Animation 11 Pro.app"'

#cmd prefix
cmd_prefix = ''
cmd_suffix = ' '
os_usecall = True
print( os.name )
if os.name == 'posix':
    cmd_prefix = 'open -n -W -a '
    cmd_suffix = ' --args '
    os_usecall = False

baked_command = cmd_prefix + tvpaint_path + cmd_suffix + '"cmd=tv_runscript myscript.grg"'
print( baked_command )

if os_usecall:
    call( baked_command )
else:
    os.system( baked_command )
