Adding paste relative reference into TOPs python syntax? March 31, 2026, 8:28 a.m.
Fixed:
import sys, os
import hou
folder_path = hou.evalParm("../../fileDIR")
print (folder_path)
# Combine them directly inside the function
#os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
import sys, os
import hou
folder_path = hou.evalParm("../../fileDIR")
print (folder_path)
# Combine them directly inside the function
#os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
Adding paste relative reference into TOPs python syntax? March 31, 2026, 7:12 a.m.
Hi all, I am trying to make TOPs python code to pick up the paste relative reference to make a few folders. Im not really having any luck, Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? Thanks in advance!
So far I have tried:
import os
import hou
folderPath = hou.(`chs("../../fileDIR")`)
subFolder = "test"
# Combine them directly inside the function
os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
--------------------------------------------
import os
import hou
folderPath = hou.expandString(`chs("../../fileDIR")`)
subFolder = "test"
# Combine them directly inside the function
os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
------------------------------------------------
import os
import hou
folderPath = "(`chs("../../fileDIR")`)"
subFolder = "test"
# Combine them directly inside the function
os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
----------------------------------------------------
import os
import hou
folderPath = hou.node(`chs("../../fileDIR")`)
subFolder = "test"
# Combine them directly inside the function
os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
--------------------------------------------------
import os
import hou
folderPath = parm(`chs("../../fileDIR")`)
subFolder = "test"
# Combine them directly inside the function
os.makedirs(os.path.join(folderPath, subFolder), exist_ok=True)
