NodeToPython v4.2.0

NodeToPython is here with Blender 5.2 LTS support! Here are the highlights

• New setting types (generic vectors, GeometryNodeClosureToListItems, GeometryNodeFieldToListItems, NodeRaycastSampleAttributeItems, etc)
• Now handles Sound sockets
• Panel states can now be set to open or closed
• New nodes and settings from 5.2

NodeToPython v4.1.1

Minor bug fixes and improvements

• Adds more options for recreating nodes (show_options, show_preview, show_texture)
• Check that a node group isn't explicitly exported before adding to the common module, fixing some an issue with exporting subgroups

NodeToPython v4.1.0

New Blender release = new NodeToPython. Here's what's new:

• NodeToPython now supports Blender 5.1
• Generated scripts no longer crash when vector socket default values don't match the dimensions
• NodeToPython now warns if a node group is linked from an old Blender version, and will generate Python code for the group instead of trying to link it

NodeToPython v4.0.1

This release fixes issues with exporting bundle and matrix group sockets

NodeToPython v4.0.0

NodeToPython v4.0 is here!

In celebration of Blender 5.0's release, NodeToPython is getting a big one, too. Here's what's new:

• NodeToPython is now Blender 5.0 ready.
• New node tree types! Now you can export Line Style, World, and Light nodes to Python
• Multiple node groups can now be exported at once, both in script and add-on mode
• The UI has gotten a full re-vamp
  • No more executing the export operator when selecting your node group
  • Now a simple button at the top shows you what you're exporting and where you're exporting to
  • Node groups are added using Blender's UIList for easy selection, addition, removal, sorting, etc.
• Node groups from Blender's Essentials Library are now linked by default, rather than re-created
• Generated node references are made safer in some places
• Blender 4.2 is now the minimum version
  • NodeToPython versions prior to v4.0 will always be available for download!
  • This allows us to clean up the code and take advantage of newer features of both Python and bpy that weren't possible when we still needed to support Blender 3.0

Something not quite right? Have a suggestion for a future improvement? Please submit an issue!

Thank you for using NodeToPython! It's a joy to see what people are making with the help of my tool
