Deadline: Version GlobalJobPreLoad

[iLLiCiTiT]

Changelog Description

Add version that is printed in GlobalJobPreLoad plugin.

Additional info

Sometimes it is hard to debug issues with the plugin, with version printed in the log it should be a little bit easier.

Testing notes:

1. Copy new plugin to deadline repository
2. Version should be printed in the job logs

Yes, please!

@MustafaJafar 's idea #33 (comment)

It's not a new idea - it has been proposed before.

• Bugfix: Ayon Deadline env vars + error message on no executable found OpenPype#5815 (comment)
• Deadline: Report GlobalJobPreLoad version in logs OpenPype#5920
• Enhancement: Add version number to GlobalJobPreload and validate it OpenPype#5919

Anyway, happy to see it implemented!

Note that there I also recommended doing the same with the Ayon deadline plug-in so that also reports its version in the Ayon publisher logs, etc.

Good point, do you know how it can be printed in the plugin?

Something like this?

def InitializeProcess(self):
    self.LogInfo("Initializing process with AYON plugin {}".format(__version__))

I believe that should work, yes.

They seem to be doing that in some of their plug-ins as well, e.g.

3dsCmd

    def InitializeProcess( self ):
        # type: () -> None
        """
        Called by Deadline to initialize the process.
        Sets the plugin specific settings.
        """
        self.LogInfo( "3dsCmd Plugin Initializing..." )

They never log anything in __init__ or alike, so I feel InitializeProcess is the best place, yes.
In the Maya Plug-in they do this in StartJob method:

        self.LogInfo( "Rendering with Maya Version " + str(self.Version) )

Nonetheless - I still think InitializeProcess might be the better candidate here.

@kalisp Can you also confirm the AYON plug-in getting reported?
