Hey all,
I've got Tornado server running in a separate thread on Nuke 9.0v8 so we
can pass data to Nuke from our shot manager. It's working fine, except for
one thing: sometimes Nuke will launch a new instance by itself, loading
whatever comp I'm working on, and killing the thread that contained Tornado
(though not releasing the socket) in the first comp. I thought maybe it was
a Nuke or Python timeout but there doesn't seem to be any consistency as to
when it actually launches.
I can't find anything about this happening on the Interwebs. Anyone have
any ideas? Here's the code I'm using to launch:
def serverThreadStart():
# Script which starts a new process (so Nuke doesn't hang while
waiting for data) to host the server
threading.Thread(target=serverStart, name="tornado").start()
vPrint(0,"Starting Server Thread at port 6075")
### START SERVER
def serverStart():
# Script which actually opens the port
# TODO: look for an open port before assigning it
URLs().application.listen(6075, "localhost")
tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.current().start()
I will test creating a separate process with Tornado or Python rather than
using Nuke's, and see if it will still talk to Nuke. Might not...
Den
