nuke.memory2

Memory module containing functionality for querying and controlling Nuke’s Memory API, currently the module is named memory2 for backwards compatibility with the old nuke.memory(cmd, value) function which is now deprecated. Once removed this module will be deprecated and it will be renamed to nuke.memory. To avoid future conflicts it is recommended to import like so:

from nuke import memory2 as memory
