Python way to import exported cache

#1

Hi
I have exported the cache of the geometries selected using the following code. Now on selecting the mesh how do I import the cache back from the cache path? Any suggestion or help is well appreciated.

startFrame = 1
endFrame = 24
cachePath = 'C:/Users/########/Documents/maya/projects/default/data/cache'#cache data saving path
path = cmds.file(query = True, exn = True)
PathSplit = path.split("/")
flName = PathSplit[-1]
cmds.cacheFile(f=flName, st=startFrame, et=endFrame, points=cacheObjShape, dir=cachePath, cacheFormat="mcc", format="OneFile",sch=1)#Writing the cache
#cacheObjShape is the cache mesh shapes selection

Thanks
Prem

Not ideal but works for me.

import maya.mel as mel
mel.eval('doImportCacheFile "' + cacheFile + '" "" {"' + mesh+ '"} {}')

Hi,
That did not work for the way I am exporting it.
Thanks!

I’ve been using Grant’s libs and have worked quite well. Maybe there is something here that could help you out.
