Adding Parameters to VEX Wrangle nodes

July 7th, 2014 . 4 comments

Here’s a quick one, inspired by a tool I saw while at Double Negative earlier this year. The Point Wrangle and Attrib Wrangle nodes in Houdini 13 come in handy for a lot of things but are a but cumbersome when you want to add parameters to control them. This bit of python will look over your VEX code snippet and create parameters for any that have been referenced in your code but don’t already exist.

wrangler_parms

It’s in the form of a custom menu option, so you just need to drop this file in your houdini user folder (where all your .pref files are), and it will append the “Create Wrangler Parameters” option to the end of the parameter context menu.
