Duduf After Effects ExtendScript Framework

TODO

  • Check if magic preset is still needed (in DuAE.init() )

What's this?

DuAEF is a set of classes, methods and tools to ease the scripting process in After Effects, as long as adding features (like pngquant, ffmpeg, or json) not available in After Effects/ExtendScript. It is very easy to use and documented.

How to use the framework in an After Effects script?

Just include the framework in your script with this simple code:

#include DuAEF.jsxinc

After this, all objects and methods from DuAEF will be available, in the DuAEF namespace.

Comprehensive reference

The framework reference is available here.

Other tools

  • The tools subfolder contains some useful scripts, which can be used as example cases of DuAEF use.
  • DuBuilder is a stand-alone application written in Qt/C++ to build the scripts. It replaces all includes with the actual source code and lets you distribute your scripts as single files instead of a main script with a lot of includes.
