✨ WRITENODEGRAPHS(1) ✨

okay bestie so this is the manual page for writenodegraphs, living in the User Commands section of the manual. and uh. it's giving chaos. 🙈 let's get into it.

💖 NAME 💖

writenodegraphs — the manual page for writenodegraphs version 1.39.5. that's it. that's the name section. short and sweet, no cap.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the thing, bestie. the "description" of this command is literally a Python traceback. like, that IS the content. the whole vibe is: it tried to run, and it did not slay. 😭

not me reading a manpage that's just an error message 💀 this is what happens when the docs generation script itself crashes, iykyk.

here's the exact traceback, character for character, no edits, periodt:

Traceback (most recent call last):
           File
           "/builddir/build/BUILD/materialx-1.39.5-build/BUILDROOT/usr/bin/writenodegraphs",
           line 6, in <module>

           import MaterialX as mx

    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'MaterialX'

let me break down what's actually happening here, because it's lowkey a whole story:

• the file that got run was "/builddir/build/BUILD/materialx-1.39.5-build/BUILDROOT/usr/bin/writenodegraphs" — that's the path, exactly as it appears. no touchies. 🫶
• the traceback happened at line 6, inside <module>.
• the line it choked on was import MaterialX as mx — it was trying to import MaterialX under the alias mx.
• and the reason it all fell apart: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'MaterialX'

so like. the module MaterialX was simply not there. the import could not find it. that's the entire error. the tool couldn't even get to the part where it writes node graphs, because it tripped on the import first. main character energy denied. 💅
