Hi moritz, it is possible for a MoI script to open and read lines from text files.

For an example check out this script:

Find the one that says that it was updated to also work on Mac, that's the one that uses the newer MoI text file reading for scripting.

Also some description here:

Hi Michael,

thank you very much for your quick answer.
I think that reading of the file is an issue I'd probably be able to tackle with your links.
But what about the nodeeditor? Is it possible to somehow select the nodes I created "by name" or something like that, edit the values and than create a new object by that?

Thanks!

Hi moritz,

So you mean you want to access the nodeeditor through script to feed it values from the .csv file?

I would think it should be possible but I'm sorry I don't know enough details about the nodeeditor to know how to do that.

You would probably put your .csv reading code into the node editor dialog page (index.html file inside the node editor directory), and then the node editor object will be on there as a global variable and I'd think it would have arrays of nodes inside of it.

Hello Moritz,
it ispossible to read csv-files with the nodeeditor. There is a node in the extensions under import. Can you post an example and explain something more detail - then I can have a look.

Have a nice weekend
