nexrender-action-sequence-comps

This plugin causes comps in the target project to be combined into one comp before rendering

Install

npm install nexrender-comp-sequence

How to use

1. Add this module as a pre-download action
2. Add an array of comps to sequence as sequence. They will be sequenced in the order you list them
3. The target comp you name in the job definition will be used as a template, so it must exist in the AE project

{
    "template": {
        "src": "http://www.foo.com/template.aep",
        "composition": "used-as-a-template"
    },
    "actions": {
        "predownload": [
            {
                "module": "nexrender-comp-sequence",
                "sequence": [
                    {
                        "comp": "first-comp"
                    },
                    {
                        "comp": "second-comp",
                        "extend": true // if true - all layers' out-points & comp work area duration will be extended so that the longest piece of footage is fully used
                    },
                    { 
                        "comp": "third-comp"
                    }
                ]
            }
        ],

Notes

The new comp will only contain the work areas - other parts will be trimmed off

This plugin is based on the excellent MOGRT action which you can find here https://github.com/vonstring/nexrender-action-mogrt-template
