Dear All,
Working on a graph-related extension I would like to store persistent custom information directly on existing ootb nodes - hence stored in the Dynamo file using the regular serialisation (as ootb nodes + 3rd party nodes should obviously not be changed by me).
This information should be optional and not require everyone to have this extension installed but other people working on this script should not “erase” the existing custom information either - it should remain as it is then (just serialised + deserialised).
A “property” dictionary that is part of every NodeModel and serialised automatically would be useful for this. Then everyone could just attach keys and values for his own workflow easily.
Since I don’t think this is possible currently - How would i do this in a proper / intended way @Michael_Kirschner2 @Racel?
In a first (stupid?) attempt I attached my property string to “Description” and thought it would be serialised / deserialised - but it seems that after reopening the script it gets overwritten with the node description and my custom value is lost again.
Is there a better way or better properties to store this in?
Thank you very much
Best regards, Eckart
