- add rna property 'as_bytes' method so you can get a string property as python bytes (bypass encoding).
- make bpy.path.abspath/relpath compatible with bytes.
- add 'relpath' option to bpy_extras.image_utils.load_image(), so you can load an image relative to a path.
- bpy.path.extensions_image
- bpy.path.extensions_movie
- bpy.path.extensions_audio
eg:
if os.path.splitext(filename)[1].lower() in bpy.path.extensions_image:
... we have an image ...
this report exposed multiple bugs in blender when using a non utf8 compatible home directory.
- bpy.utils.script_paths() would crash when homedir wasn't utf8 (reported bug)
- PyC_DefaultNameSpace() - would raise an error when running when __file__ was non utf8.
- preset filepath property was not set to accept non utf8.
- bpy.paths.display_name would raise an error on non utf8 paths, (used for preset draw)
- bpy.data.*.load() functions were only accepting UTF-8 paths.
- rna functions/properties now accept byte values rather then strings for file paths.
- bpy.path.resolve_ncase now supports byte objects.
Also added bpy.path.display_name_from_filepath(), since filepaths are not ensured to be utf8.
same as calling: os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(name))[0].encode("utf8", "replace").decode("utf8")
- better error reporting when an addon fails to load
- upload an addon which loads partly but then fails (eg, module loads but class register fails)
- bugfix addon loading, failier to load would leave _bpy_types._register_immediate = False
- added which change on disk are reloaded when enabling.
- bpy.path.module_names() now returns (module_name, module_path) pairs.
I use this as a tag that the script SHOULD be pep8 compliant, warnings the pep8 checkers give can be fixed later, without this I dont get any warnings.
also made all other exporters do this.
Made some internal changes.
- moved path functions from bpy.utils to bpy.path (similar to os.path)
- added functions...
bpy.path.ensure_ext(path, ".ext", case_sensitive=False) # simple function to ensure the extension is set.
bpy.path.resolve_ncase(path) # useful for importing scenes made on windows where the path case doesnt match the files.
