How can a windows client connect to opencue?

Opencue is built on centos7. How can my windows client connect to opencue? How can I connect through plug-ins? What components do I need to install in my windows?

Our official Docker images tend to be built on CentOS, but Windows is broadly supported.

All of the components here should run fine on Windows. I would generally recommend running your database/Cuebot on a Linux machine -- it's not a problem to use Windows render hosts/workstations with this sort of setup.

  • RQD: for Windows, you won't be able to use the Docker images so use Option 3 or 4 here: https://www.opencue.io/docs/getting-started/deploying-rqd/#option-3-installing-from-the-published-release
  • Client tools: these don't use Docker images, so the standard install process works fine on Windows: https://www.opencue.io/docs/getting-started/installing-cuegui/
    • The commands on this page are Linux commands, so they'll need to be adjusted, but the general process is the same.

我们的官方 Docker 映像倾向于构建在 CentOS 上,但广泛支持 Windows。

此处的所有组件都应该在 Windows 上运行良好。我通常建议在 Linux 机器上运行您的数据库/Cuebot——通过这种设置使用 Windows 渲染主机/工作站不是问题。

I mean, my opencue has been built on Centos7. How can I use the windows system used by the designer? How can I connect to my cuebot through the software he uses, such as blender? I heard that I can choose to render from opencue through plug-in. How should I install this plug-in? Thank you.
