stalker.models.project.Project

class stalker.models.project.Project(name=None, code=None, clients=None, repositories=None, structure=None, image_format=None, fps=25.0, is_stereoscopic=False, users=None, **kwargs)

Bases: stalker.models.entity.Entity, stalker.models.mixins.ReferenceMixin, stalker.models.mixins.StatusMixin, stalker.models.mixins.DateRangeMixin, stalker.models.mixins.CodeMixin

All the information about a Project in Stalker is hold in this class.

Project is one of the main classes that will direct the others. A project in Stalker is a gathering point.

It is mixed with ReferenceMixin, StatusMixin, DateRangeMixin and CodeMixin to give reference, status, schedule and code attribute. Please read the individual documentation of each of the mixins.

Project Users

The Project.users attribute lists the users in this project. UIs like task creation for example will only list these users as available resources for this project.

TaskJuggler Integration

Stalker uses TaskJuggler for scheduling the project tasks. The Project.to_tjp attribute generates a tjp compliant string which includes the project definition, the tasks of the project, the resources in the project including the vacation definitions and all the time logs recorded for the project.

For custom attributes or directives that needs to be passed to TaskJuggler you can use the Project.custom_tjp attribute which will be attached to the generated tjp file (inside the “project” directive).

To manage all the studio projects at once (schedule them at once please use Studio).

Repositories

New in version 0.2.13: Multiple Repositories per Project

Starting with v0.2.13 Project instances can have multiple Repositories, which allows the project files to be placed in more than one repository according to the need of the studio pipeline. One great advantage of having multiple repositories is to be able to place Published versions in to another repository which is placed on to a faster server.

Also the repositories attribute is not a read-only attribute anymore.

Clients

New in version 0.2.15: Multiple Clients per Project

It is now possible to attach multiple Client instances to one Project allowing to hold complex Projects to Client relations by using the ProjectClient.role attribute of the ProjectClient class.

Deleting a Project

Deleting a Project instance will cascade the delete operation to all the Tasks related to that particular Project and it will cascade the delete operation to TimeLogs, Versions, Links and Reviews etc.. So one can delete a Project instance without worrying about the non-project related data like Users or Departments to be deleted.

Parameters:

• clients – The clients which the project is affiliated with. Default value is an empty list.
• image_format (ImageFormat) – The output image format of the project. Default value is None.
• fps (float) – The FPS of the project, it should be a integer or float number, or a string literal which can be correctly converted to a float. Default value is 25.0.
• type (Type) – The type of the project. Default value is None.
• structure (Structure) – The structure of the project. Default value is None
• repositories – A list of Repository instances that the project files are going to be stored in. You can not create a project without specifying the repositories argument and passing a Repository to it. Default value is None which raises a TypeError.
• is_stereoscopic (bool) – a bool value, showing if the project is going to be a stereo 3D project, anything given as the argument will be converted to True or False. Default value is False.
• users – A list of Users holding the users in this project. This will create a reduced or grouped list of studio workers and will make it easier to define the resources for a Task related to this project. The default value is an empty list.

assets

returns the assets related to this project

code

The code name of this object.

It accepts strings. Can not be None.

computed_duration

returns the computed_duration as the difference of computed_start and computed_end if there are computed_start and computed_end otherwise returns None

description

Description of this object.

duration

Duration of the entity.

It is a datetime.timedelta instance. Showing the difference of the start and the end. If edited it changes the end attribute value.

end

The date that the entity should be delivered.

The end can be set to a datetime.timedelta and in this case it will be calculated as an offset from the start and converted to datetime.datetime again. Setting the start to a date passing the end will also set the end, so the timedelta between them is preserved, default value is 10 days
