Populate Variable from textfile

[RezaHosseini]

Hi!

I just made a feature request of an Analyze function for Video Levels.
This function is not present at the moment so I have been looking for a way to implement it to one of my workflows and after a bit reading online it seems that it is possible to get the values from for example ffprobe and have it write it down in a textfile. I have not tried it yet but it got me thinking.
If I get the info that i want, in the way I want, in a textfile, what do I do with it?

A great option would be to be able to populate variables from content of textfiles.
This feature could of course be used for many other porpuses.

Kind regards Reza!

Hi

this feature is already exist. In the populate variable node you can use the "$read" function to read the content of a text file.
try a look at help in the node
