In order to share folders and integrate shared content between iClone and Character Creator and avoid repeated downloads that waste storage space, the Content Manager of iClone 8 uses a database to manage the user's Content. Keep in mind that RLPy.RApplication.GetTemplateDataPath() cannot obtain the absolute path of the template directory, instead, the database needs to be queried to get the correct path. This means you'll have to feed the proper content type key into RLPy.RApplication.GetDefaultContentFolder() to obtain the relative path of the template directory, or use RLPy.RApplication.GetCustomContentFolder() to obtain the relative path of the custom directory
See the section below on Content Type Keys for an enumeration of the possible values.
Finally, you'll need to use RLPy.RApplication.GetContentFoldersInFolder() to obtain the relative path of the subdirectory under it, and use RLPy.RApplication.GetContentFilesInFolder() to obtain the actual path of the file. The procedure is as follows:
1 # get content folder recursively
2 def get_all_content_folders(_folder, all_content_folders):
3 content_folders = RLPy.RApplication.GetContentFoldersInFolder(_folder)
4 for sub_folder in content_folders:
5 all_content_folders.append(sub_folder)
6 print("sub_folder :"+sub_folder)
7 get_all_content_folders(sub_folder, all_content_folders)
8
9 # Get the default content folder
10 content_key = RLPy.ETemplateRootFolder_Character
11 def_folder = RLPy.RApplication.GetDefaultContentFolder(content_key)
12 print(def_folder)
13 # $/Actor/Character
14
15 # Get particle content folder
16 all_content_folders = []
17 get_all_content_folders(default_content_folder, all_content_folders)
18 # $/Actor/Character/ActorCore Crowd/, $/Actor/Character/ActorCore/...
19
20 # Get all files for the folder in all_content_folders:
21 real_files = RLPy.RApplication.GetContentFilesInFolder(folder)
22 for files in real_files:
23 print("files :"+files )
