Setup Documentation

[tokejepsen]

Goal

To document exactly how to get setup with the Houdini package

Motivation

Tried to setup this package and there are some pit falls to look out for.

To setup the HOUDINI_PATH correctly you need & at the end, to append the default resources.

If you are launching through batch script & is a special character, that needs to be escaped, so a batch script would look something like this:

set PYTHONPATH=%~dp0pyblish-base;%~dp0pyblish-integration;%~dp0pyblish-qml;%~dp0pyblish-rpc;%~dp0python-qt5;%~dp0pyblish-houdini
set HOUDINI_PATH=%~dp0pyblish-houdini\pyblish_houdini\houdini_path;^&
