Rules

FileRules

class PyOpenColorIO.FileRules

The File Rules are a set of filepath to color space mappings that are evaluated from first to last. The first rule to match is what determines which color space is returned. There are four types of rules available. Each rule type has a name key that may be used by applications to refer to that rule. Name values must be unique i.e. using a case insensitive comparison. The other keys depend on the rule type:

  • Basic Rule: This is the basic rule type that uses Unix glob style pattern matching and is thus very easy to use. It contains the keys:

  • name: Name of the rule

  • colorspace: Color space name to be returned.

  • pattern: Glob pattern to be used for the main part of the name/path.

  • extension: Glob pattern to be used for the file extension. Note that if glob tokens are not used, the extension will be used in a non-case-sensitive way by default.

  • Regex Rule: This is similar to the basic rule but allows additional capabilities for power-users. It contains the keys:

  • name: Name of the rule

  • colorspace: Color space name to be returned.

  • regex: Regular expression to be evaluated.

  • OCIO v1 style Rule: This rule allows the use of the OCIO v1 style, where the string is searched for color space names from the config. This rule may occur 0 or 1 times in the list. The position in the list prioritizes it with respect to the other rules. StrictParsing is not used. If no color space is found in the path, the rule will not match and the next rule will be considered. see insertPathSearchRule. It has the key:

  • name: Must be “ColorSpaceNamePathSearch”.

  • Default Rule: The file_rules must always end with this rule. If no prior rules match, this rule specifies the color space applications will use. see setDefaultRuleColorSpace. It has the keys:

  • name: must be “Default”.

  • colorspace : Color space name to be returned.

Custom string keys and associated string values may be used to convey app or workflow-specific information, e.g. whether the color space should be left as is or converted into a working space.

Getters and setters are using the rule position, they will throw if the position is not valid. If the rule at the specified position does not implement the requested property getter will return NULL and setter will throw.

When loading a v1 config, a set of FileRules are created with ColorSpaceNamePathSearch followed by the Default rule pointing to the default role. This allows getColorSpaceFromFilepath to emulate OCIO v1 code that used parseColorSpaceFromString with strictparsing set to false.

FileRules() None

Creates FileRules for a Config. File rules will contain the default rule using the default role. The default rule cannot be removed.

decreaseRulePriority(ruleIndex: int) None

Move a rule closer to the end of the list by one position.

getColorSpace(ruleIndex: int) str

Set the rule’s color space (may also be a role).

getCustomKeyName(ruleIndex: int, key: int) str

Get name of key.

getCustomKeyValue(ruleIndex: int, key: int) str

Get value for the key.

getExtension(ruleIndex: int) str

Setting extension will erase regex.

getIndexForRule(ruleName: str) int

Get the index from the rule name.

getName(ruleIndex: int) str

Get name of the rule.

getNumCustomKeys(ruleIndex: int) int

Get number of key/value pairs.

getNumEntries() int

Does include default rule. Result will be at least 1.

getPattern(ruleIndex: int) str

Setting pattern will erase regex.

getRegex(ruleIndex: int) str

Setting a regex will erase pattern & extension.

increaseRulePriority(ruleIndex: int) None

Move a rule closer to the start of the list by one position.

insertPathSearchRule(ruleIndex: int) None

Helper function to insert a rule.

Uses Config:parseColorSpaceFromString to search the path for any of the color spaces named in the config (as per OCIO v1).

insertRule(*args, **kwargs)

Overloaded function.

  1. insertRule(self: PyOpenColorIO.FileRules, ruleIndex: int, name: str, colorSpace: str, pattern: str, extension: str) -> None

Insert a rule at a given ruleIndex.

Rule currently at ruleIndex will be pushed to index: ruleIndex + 1. Name must be unique. - “Default” is a reserved name for the default rule. The default rule is automatically added and can’t be removed. (see FileRules::setDefaultRuleColorSpace ). - “ColorSpaceNamePathSearch” is also a reserved name (see FileRules::insertPathSearchRule ).

Will throw if pattern, extension or regex is a null or empty string.

Will throw if ruleIndex is not less than FileRules::getNumEntries .

  1. insertRule(self: PyOpenColorIO.FileRules, ruleIndex: int, name: str, colorSpace: str, regex: str) -> None

isDefault() bool

Check if there is only the default rule using default role and no custom key. This is the default FileRules state when creating a new config.

removeRule(ruleIndex: int) None

Note

Default rule can’t be removed. Will throw if ruleIndex + 1 is not less than FileRules::getNumEntries .

setColorSpace(ruleIndex: int, colorSpace: str) None
setCustomKey(ruleIndex: int, key: str, value: str) None

Adds a key/value or replace value if key exists. Setting a NULL or an empty value will erase the key.

setDefaultRuleColorSpace(colorSpace: str) None

Helper function to set the color space for the default rule.

setExtension(ruleIndex: int, extension: str) None
setPattern(ruleIndex: int, pattern: str) None
setRegex(ruleIndex: int, regex: str) None

ViewingRules

class PyOpenColorIO.ViewingRules

ViewingRules

Viewing Rules allow config authors to filter the list of views an application should offer based on the color space of an image. For example, a config may define a large number of views but not all of them may be appropriate for use with all color spaces. E.g., some views may be intended for use with scene-linear color space encodings and others with video color space encodings.

Each rule has a name key for applications to refer to the rule. Name values must be unique (using case insensitive comparison). Viewing Rules may also have the following keys:

  • colorspaces: Either a single colorspace name or a list of names.

  • encodings: One or more strings to be found in the colorspace’s encoding attribute. Either this attribute or colorspaces must be present, but not both.

  • custom : Allows arbitrary key / value string pairs, similar to FileRules.

Getters and setters are using the rule position, they will throw if the position is not valid.

ViewingRules() None

Creates ViewingRules for a Config.

addColorSpace(ruleIndex: int, colorSpaceName: str) None

Add colorspace name. Will throw if:

  • RuleIndex is invalid.

  • ViewingRules::getNumEncodings is not 0.

addEncoding(ruleIndex: int, encodingName: str) None

Add encoding name. Will throw if:

  • RuleIndex is invalid.

  • ViewingRules::getNumColorSpaces is not 0.

getColorSpaces(ruleIndex: int) PyOpenColorIO.ViewingRules.ViewingRuleColorSpaceIterator
getCustomKeyName(ruleIndex: int, key: int) str

Get name of key. Will throw if ruleIndex or keyIndex is invalid.

getCustomKeyValue(ruleIndex: int, key: int) str

Get value for the key. Will throw if ruleIndex or keyIndex is invalid.

getEncodings(ruleIndex: int) PyOpenColorIO.ViewingRules.ViewingRuleEncodingIterator
getIndexForRule(ruleName: str) int

Get the index from the rule name. Will throw if there is no rule named ruleName.

getName(ruleIndex: int) str

Get name of the rule. Will throw if ruleIndex is invalid.

getNumCustomKeys(ruleIndex: int) int

Get number of key/value pairs. Will throw if ruleIndex is invalid.

getNumEntries() int
insertRule(ruleIndex: int, name: str) None

Insert a rule at a given ruleIndex.

Rule currently at ruleIndex will be pushed to index: ruleIndex + 1. If ruleIndex is ViewingRules::getNumEntries, a new rule will be added at the end. Will throw if: - RuleIndex is invalid (must be less than or equal to ViewingRules::getNumEntries). - RuleName already exists.

removeColorSpace(ruleIndex: int, colorSpaceIndex: int) None

Remove colorspace. Will throw if ruleIndex or colorSpaceIndex is invalid.

removeEncoding(ruleIndex: int, encodingIndex: int) None
