dopsmoketoolutils module

dopsmoketoolutils.addfluidsource(objecttoconvert, merge, preset, mode='Auto', volumeattribute='')
dopsmoketoolutils.applySourceSink(fluidnode, objectnode, sourcesink)

A sourceapply is added to the fluid object. This will directly import the objectnode if it isn’t simulated. If the object node is a live simulation, it will add the name of it to the sourceapply source object.

The assumption is we have been prefixed by a convertObjectToSourceSink

dopsmoketoolutils.applysopSourceSink(fluidnode, sourcenode, sourcesink)
dopsmoketoolutils.buildCombustionModel(objnode, firenode, smokenode, flamescale)

Builds a live version of obj node that updates the combustion model.

dopsmoketoolutils.buildFluidBoxWithUpres(kwargs, fluidtype, buildmat=True)

Builds a fluid solver and fluid box complete with a tame upres choice.

dopsmoketoolutils.buildMotionOverride(name, bypass)

Builds a SIM_Motion setup to be keyframeable with no extra channels. Bypasses by default if so requested.

dopsmoketoolutils.buildNodeName(result, field_name)

Suffixes first paramater with second, but handles cases of first parm being None

dopsmoketoolutils.buildRelationshipExpression(node)

Builds the appropriate expression to refer to this node inside a relationship string. Ie, dopobjscreatedby for fluidnodes and chs() for group nodes.

dopsmoketoolutils.buildRenameNode(objectnode, fromfield, tofield)

Returns a new node, a child of object node, that will rename the field fromfield to the field tofield.

dopsmoketoolutils.burstSelectedIntoFlame(kwargs)

Creates a properly centered flame and smoke boxes for the given object and sets up the proper embedding relationship

dopsmoketoolutils.calculateDiameter(diamobject)

Calculates the approximated diameter of the specified object If the diameter is 0, return 1

dopsmoketoolutils.computeFluidDiameter(fluidnode)

Estimates a diameter for a fluid container

dopsmoketoolutils.convertObjectToFluidtype(fluidobject, objectnode, fluidtype)

object node is used as initial conditions into fluidobject according to the fluid type.

dopsmoketoolutils.convertObjectToSourceSink(fluidnode, objectnode, sourcesink, subtype=None)

The chosen object is added to the simulation as a static object and set as a source or sink relationship to the rest of the simulation.

sourcesink can be Source, Sink, Pump for the static object approach. Prefixing Apply_ will instead use a sourceapply. Postfixing _Surface to an Apply_ will setup for emission from the surface.

Ideally, it is to be added to the target fluid’s source relationship, but for technical constraints we only guarantee it is added to that network. Since selection will change the current fluid network, we don’t have to worry about setting the network.

We special case particle fluids when they are the target as we have special source/sink nodes in these cases.
