No, VEX is not a scripting language. VEX is a shading language.

You can use this code in python:
hou.hscript(“sopcache -c”)

So this unload every node right?
What if need to unload specific nodes? Can't find any command for that.



Also, I encountered 2 issues: Python Sop seems to be unaffected by the command, It won't unload.
And even if the nodes upstream have they cache cleared by the command, this won't trigger a re-cook for the Python Sop.

I produced an example case
