renderPassRegistry(*args, **kwargs)

query information related with render passes.

Flags:

Long name (short name)		Argument Types	Properties
channels (ch)		int
	Specify the number of channels for query.
isPassSupported (ips)		bool
	Return whether the pass is supported by the renderer This flag must be specified by the flag -passID firstly. The renderer whose default value is the current renderer is specified by the flag renderer.Flag can appear in Create mode of commandFlag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
passID (pi)		unicode
	Specify the render pass ID for query.
passName (pn)		bool
	Get the pass name for the passID. This flag must be specified by the flag -passID firstly.
renderer (r)		unicode
	Specify a renderer when using this command. By default the current renderer is specified.

supportedDataTypes (sdt)		bool
	List frame buffer types supported by the renderer(specified by the flag -renderer), the specified passID and channels. This flag must be specified by the flag -passID and -channels firstly.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.renderPassRegistry

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

import maya.cmds as cmds

# Get supported channel counts supported by renderer mentalRay and the passID "DIFF".
pm.renderPassRegistry(passID='DIFF',renderer='mentalRay', supportedChannelCounts=True)
# Result: [4, 3] #
#
# Get supported data types supported by renderer mentalRay, the passID "DIFF" and the channels "3".
pm.renderPassRegistry(passID='DIFF', renderer='mentalRay', channels=3, supportedDataTypes=True)
# Result: [1, 2, 256, 512] #
