Is it possible to execute Python before opening a hipfile? 2024年11月27日7:41
My goal is to check conditions when I open a hip file.
My hipfile has a JSON file next to it with info.
If I go to File > Open... and my current houdini session doesn't meet the conditions (i.e. the JSON file states Redshift is required and I don't have Redshift, or my houdini version is too low) it stops loading the file. And then executes more logic, maybe starts a new houdini process that meets the criteria.
Is there an event I can plug into? And how?
Edit:
After some digging, I see I probably need to use hou.hipFileEventType.BeforeLoad. But how do I stop the file from being loaded?

Thanks goldleaf 
I did like you said with full success.
If anyone finds this post in the future, here's a minimal example of reparenting a prim (it requires the layer to be flattened first):
And to my understanding, if we plan to make more operations, we should add
