Installation from a package

Houdini plugin

Manual

Add a new Houdini package with such configuration json:

{
    "env":[
        {
            "HDRPR_DIR":"path-to-the-package"
        },
        {
            "HOUDINI_PATH":"$HDRPR_DIR/houdini"
        },
        {
            "PATH":"$HDRPR_DIR/lib"
        },
        {
            "PYTHONPATH":"$HDRPR_DIR/lib/python"
        }
    ]
}

where path-to-the-package depends on where do you unzip hdRpr package and should point to the directory that contains INSTALL.md (this file)

To setup the render settings update script, copy <path-to-the-package>/plugin/usd/hdRpr/resources/scripts/rendersettings_OnLoaded.py into <houdini-root>/houdini/scripts/lop

More info here https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/ref/plugins.html

Automatic

activateHoudiniPlugin executable can do the same for you automatically - it will try to find your houdini preference dir and add hdRpr package that will point to the current directory.

Usdview plugin

Here and next, HDRPR_PACKAGE_DIR is a path to the root of the package.

• Add HDRPR_PACKAGE_DIR/plugin path entry to the PXR_PLUGINPATH_NAME environment variable
• Add HDRPR_PACKAGE_DIR/lib/python path entry to the PYTHONPATH environment variable
• Windows only: add the HDRPR_PACKAGE_DIR/lib path entry to the PATH environment variable

OR

You can copy hdRpr package directories (lib and plugin) directly to the root of your USD package.

Installation from sources
