Houdini package expressions not working 2024年12月5日10:17

Got it working, thanks! Would be great to be able to use the env variables set IN the file (or in package files with a higher processing order) to evaluate expressions. But oh well, if this is how it is expected, so be it

Houdini package expressions not working 2024年12月5日3:42

I am trying to use expressions for dynamic include/excludes in my package files but it does not seem to work if I try to compare with any self-set environment variables inside of the package file. Doing include expressions like "houdini_version == '20.5.410'" work, but changing that to "houdini_version == '$VAR_HOUDINI_VERSION'" (where var = "20.5.410") seems to return false or break and skip the package. How are these supposed to be used and why does this not work?

{
	"enable": true,
    "load_package_once": true,
	"process_order" : 1,
    "env": [
		{
			"SOME_VAR" : "20.5.410"
		},
        {
			"HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH" : 
			[
				{
					"houdini_version == '$SOME_VAR'" : "/some/path",
					"method" : "append"
				}
			]
			
		},
]
}

What is the full name for VOP 2023年6月20日4:52

It's a VEX operator, as the nodes in VOPs are direct node-implementations of VEX functions. VOPs also compile into VEX code which you can actually see by clicking on the VOP node -> View VEX/VOP Options -> View Vex Code.
