Shulou(Shulou.com)06/03 Report--

Ftrack's API enables developers to write custom Python scripts that communicate directly with the ftrack server. With this approach, ftrack becomes very flexible. Users can customize ftrack according to their unique process and create a unique solution suitable for their own process.

In the past, the integration of ftrack API and Python 2.7 has brought a lot of promotion to users in many industries, and we have been working hard to promote this integration to the newer, faster Python 3, with the aim of providing a better and more consistent experience for our users around the world. I hope you can give it a try.

Users can find installation instructions and more information about Python 3-based frack-python-api at the link below. Below we also list some of the considerations for deciding to make this conversion.

Why are we moving to Python3?

First of all, Python3 is now widely supported by http://py3readiness.org/. The new generation of languages has undergone a lot of innovation in a short period of time and now has a series of great improvements. At the same time, we must see that the maintenance burden related to Python 2 will become heavier and heavier in the future.

Secondly, this announcement is also part of our long-term commitment to follow the VFX reference platform standard. Https://www.vfxplatform.com/

The VFX reference platform lists a range of versions of tools and libraries that are important general standards when building solutions for the VFX industry.

Not long ago, the VFX reference platform required software vendors to provide a preview of Python 3 applications to help studios migrate to the latest version of the programming language, which is why we need to quickly develop a preview version of Python 3 ftrack API.

We have been working hard to ensure that Python 3 does not affect the way our ftrack API currently works. We want to ensure that the use of this new language meets the needs of users and that ftrack API is as flexible and easy to access as the Python 2 implementation.

We invite you to try our Python 3 preview of ftrack-python-api to give us better feedback. The deadline for the VFX industry to migrate to Python3 by 2020 is approaching, so we encourage developers to explore Python3 API so that problems can be resolved more quickly.

You can inform you of any problems you find through the forum or via email support@ftrack.com, and your feedback is of unlimited value to us, which will help us build a product that is right for you.

Ftrack API

Ftrack-python-api enables users to modify and customize ftrack to meet their specific needs. If you have specific requirements as a studio or individual user, ftrack's full Python and object-oriented Python API make it easy to customize and extend ftrack while retaining all the same features as those available to the server, such as user rights and custom entities. You can make ftrack work exactly the way you need it.

Access ftrack-python-api on Bitbucket. The Python version of Python 3 is fully backward compatible with Python2.7.
