Generate intermediate sequences for VFX processing using OIIO and FFMPEG!

This module aims to help by providing helper classes and functions to:

  • Get basic info from videos and images using iinfo and ffprobe as a fallback.
  • Read and parse effect json outputted by AYON/Openpype for pipeline automation.
  • Create a custom OCIO config file for direct use.
  • Create OIIO and FFMPEG matrix values to be used in filters for repositioning.
  • Create correctly formed OIIO commandline strings automatically.
  • Render out frames with Color and Repositioning baked in using oiiotool

Check out the full documentation over at https://ynput.github.io/LabLib/

Instructions

The core functionality relies on using Processors and Operators to compute the correct commandline parameters.

Operators are single operation classes that hold your operation parameters (translation, luts, cdls etc.)

Processors (usually classes such as ColorTransformProcessor) compute Operators chains together. They can be fed ordered lists of dicts (with same name attributes as Operator classes) or ordered lists of Operators objects, or one at a time for secondary processing between the chained operations. On compute they return their relevant section of commandline flags to be passed to oiio.

Renderers take care of returning the fully formed commanline command and executing it.

Installation

LabLib requires python-3.9 and uses poetry for managing its dependencies.

It's encouraged to use the provided PowerShell script to install and download the binaries for oiiotool, ffmpeg, the OCIO Color Configs and the font Source Code Pro which is used in tests.

  • clone this repo
  • .\start.ps1 install
  • .\start.ps1 get-dependencies

Testing

You can run the full suite with .\start.ps1 test or to run custom pytest commands make sure to be in the cloned repository's directory and run poetry run pytest [ARGS].

Contributing

The best way to contribute to LabLib currently is to write extensive test cases for all modules. But also sharing your thoughts and ideas on the Discussions Page really helps to keep this project going 💞
