OCIO TSC Meeting Notes

• ASWF Dev Days:

  • Participants having trouble to build the project (on Windows mostly)

• Build Scripts:

  • How do we improve the install procedures.

    • Should we test it in CI somehow?

  • Build process - improve use of cmake builtin features to help reduce build wrapper complexity

    • Mentioned USD build script https://github.com/PixarAnimationStudios/OpenUSD/blob/release/build_scripts/build_usd.py

    • Our CMake also regularly breaks for new versions of deps because we use ExternalProject_Add instead of FetchContent (we re-create CMake target manually for deps)

    • Mark R: The way we handle / support debug builds on Windows could be improved

  • Do we need a wrapper script to document available options a basic 'help' option

  • Should we document / make available dev environment?

    • Existing ocio docker image from wg-ci?

    • Github codespace?

  • Should we install ocioview dependencies when installing via pip

    • Asking to install missing deps on launch? 

    • Splitting ocioview into optional pip dependencies [ocioapps] ?

    • Splitting ocioview into its own PyPI package, then always install all deps? Would help with versioning independently of the core library.

• Items for next meeting agenda:

  • Info
