GSoC 2024: Improve Distributed Rendering & Task Execution

Week 11
August 5 — August 9

I was mainly addressing the remaining issues this week. I managed to add some safety checks and replaced the out-dated os Python library with Pathlib. I also spent time experimenting with the idea of using an external config file for Python script generation instead of embedding the Python script within the JavaScript file. My first try was to make the custom job type load from a json file and generate the Python script accordingly, but using the fs library does not seem to be allowed. I need to research for other workarounds.

I need to spend time on other things for the next week, but I’ll continue working on the remaining issues and keep on track.
