Function Documentation

GroupQueryResults()

SDR_API VtDictionary GroupQueryResults

(

const SdrShaderNodeQueryResult &

result

)

Return shader node query results in a nested tree form.

For example, if a query result contains:

• values ["context1", "id1"] ["context1", "id2"]
• one shader node corresponding to the first value row
• two shader nodes corresponding to the second value row

The grouped result will be a VtDictionary of the form

{
  "context1": {
      "id1": [<SdrShaderNodeConstPtr>]
      "id2": [<SdrShaderNodeConstPtr>, <SdrShaderNodeConstPtr>]
   }
}

where the SdrShaderNodeConstPtr container is a VtValue holding std::vector<SdrShaderNodeConstPtr> and is sorted alphabetically by node identifier, then sourceType.

Values are stringified by SdrShaderNodeQueryResult::GetStringifiedValues.

Note that this utility doesn't help collapse empty values, but will rather preserve empty values as keys. For example, a query result containing values from a single node might have values:

[["a", "", "b"]]

For this above example, this function would return

{"a": {"": {"b": [<SdrShaderNodeConstPtr>] }}}

Note that innermost nodes are always contained in a list structure.

Returns an empty VtDictionary if the given query result has no keys or if the result has no nodes.
