Upcoming release of version 1.9

Posted by Tom De Smedt on Sep 22, 2007

Frederik is finishing up on NodeBox 1.9 and it'll be available very soon. It has a lot of long-awaited features and fixes, including a bug fix for clipping paths, export to JPG and PNG, command-line access, output in RGB, and more!

Stay tuned!

Command-line access means you can run NodeBox scripts from the Terminal and, for example, produce PNGs from a shell script? Whatever it is, I can't wait ;-)

Yes, you will be able to produce images, PDF's and movies from the Terminal, a shell script, or any Python application.

NodeBox 1.9.0 is available for download!
Changes to the documentation and the tutorial will follow.

We've thrown in a new Quicktime library to import movie frames as well!

While we're waiting for the docs to be updated, could anyone share the recipe for how to add nodebox to your python path so it can be called from scripts run from the command line?

Wah! I doesn't work! Here's the error:

NodeBox Error
An unexpected error has occurred during execution of the main script
 
ImportError: dlopen(/Applications/NodeBox/NodeBox.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/objc/_objc.so, 2): no suitable image found.  Did find:
	/Applications/NodeBox/NodeBox.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/objc/_objc.so: mach-o, but wrong architecture

What's wrong?

Anonymous, are you by any chance running on PowerPC?

Posted by Frederik on Oct 02, 2007

I released a 1.9.1 version that is a universal binary -- I tested it on a PowerBook G4, and it should work fine.

Regards,

Frederik

Yes, I have an eMac. Thanks for the universal version.
