When the socket is not connected to other nodes, the script can be read into its variable. Everything is fine.
MyObjName = bpy.data.node_groups["MyGNStrings"].nodes["Group output"].inputs[1].default_value
The value object_test is written in variable MyObjName:
But when I connect this socket to other sockets, its value is no longer readable by the script:
For each animation frame, I need to get my own object index, which will be contained in this socket.
Have you or anyone tried to get the value via identifier? (I tested the code below for Group Input in Blender 4.1 ). Edit: Unfortunately, for Group Output it gives errors for me. Edit2: It works if you assign some value before you read the value!
import bpy
in_input_id = bpy.data.node_groups["MyGNStrings"].nodes["Group Input"].inputs["InputObjectName"].identifier #this works
value1 = bpy.data.objects['Cube'].modifiers['GeometryNodes'][in_input_id] #or whatever the object
print("input_value=", value1)
out_input_id = bpy.data.node_groups["MyGNStrings"].nodes["Group Ouput"].inputs["OutputObjectName"].identifier #this get the identifier but not the value for below
bpy.data.objects['Cube'].modifiers['GeometryNodes'][out_input_id] = "test_string"
value2 = bpy.data.objects['Cube'].modifiers['GeometryNodes'][out_input_id] #or whatever the object
print("output_value=", value2) #KeyError: 'bpy_struct[key]: key "Socket_16" not found' (if you not assign some value to it!)
