This is a simple node disable func, useful if your graph is full of slow stuff:

def node_disabling(n_s_mode, n_class, switcher=False):

"""Simple node disable.

Parameters

----------

n_s_mode: str

all -- search in all nodes

sn -- search in selected nodes

n_class: str

node class

switcher: boolean

False or 0 -- node enabled

True or 1 -- node disabled

Returns

-------

None

"""

n_s = {n_s_mode == 'all': nuke.allNodes(),

n_s_mode == 'sn': nuke.selectedNodes()}.get(True, 0)

for i in n_s:

if i.Class() == '{0}'.format(n_class):

i.knob('disable').setValue(switcher)

del n_s

# example

# node_disabling('all', 'Grade', 0)

c_node_splitted = c_node.split(',')

menu.addCommand(n_path, lambda: nuke.createNode(*c_node_splitted), h_key)

n_path_i = 0

c_node_i = 1

h_key_i = 2
