Configuration

Booleans

Name	Description	Default value
automatic_context_switch	Controls whether toolkit should attempt to automatically adjust its context every time the currently loaded file changes. Defaults to True.	True
enable_sg_menu	Controls whether a menu will be built with commands registered by the installed apps. It is not currently possible to rebuild the menu on a ShotGrid context switch, so this option allows for the menu to be disabled in favor of the ShotGrid shelf which can be rebuilt dynamically.	True
enable_sg_shelf	Controls whether a shelf will be built with commands registered by the installed apps. The shelf will be rebuilt dynamically as the ShotGrid context changes.	True
debug_logging	Controls whether debug messages should be emitted to the logger	False

Lists

Name	Description	Default value
menu_favourites	Controls the favourites section on the main menu. This is a list and each menu item is a dictionary with keys app_instance and name. The app_instance parameter connects this entry to a particular app instance defined in the environment configuration file. The name is a menu name to make a favourite.
launch_builtin_plugins	Comma-separated list of tk-houdini plugins to load when launching Houdini. Use of this feature disables the classic mechanism for bootstrapping Toolkit when Houdini is launched.	[]
run_at_startup	Controls what apps will run on startup. This is a list where each element is a dictionary with two keys: 'app_instance' and 'name'. The app_instance value connects this entry to a particular app instance defined in the environment configuration file. The name is the menu name of the command to run when the Houdini engine starts up. If name is '' then all commands from the given app instance are started.	[]
review_field_matches	Matches for the review template field value to enable "Submit for Review".	['main', 'beauty', 'master']
