Building to PyQt5

• Build to PyQt5 via visual studio command prompt.• Asking to license about python then just type to “yes”.


Building to PyQt5

• Testing PyQt5 in Maya2018.

2. HOW TO SETTING UP WHEN YOU USING PYCHARM.

Connecting to port

• import maya.cmds as cmds• if not cmds.commandPort(':4434', q=True):• cmds.commandPort(n=':4434')

2. How to setting up When you using pycharm.

Installing to MAYA CHARM.Using Alt+F7 to open properties window then go to Plugins.Go to Browse repositories.Searching to MayaCharm then install.


Copy script then using into the Maya.import maya.cmds as cmdsif not cmds.commandPort(':4434', q=True):

cmds.commandPort(n=':4434')


Select to interpreter from maya bin folder as python.exe Already We make link via mklink command between python and mayapy


Additional setup your interpreter. Go to More… then organizing to Interpreter path like below.

2. How to setting up When you using PyCharm.

MayaCharm Python Remote debugger setting.Go to “Run” then open to “Edit Configurations…”


MayaCharm Python Remote debugger setting.Adding to new configuration of MayaCharm Debugger

3. WING IDE

Overview

Install Wind-ide• https://wingware.com/

3. WING IDE FOR MAYA.

https://wingware.com/

Install Wind-ide


1. Click to lower left side small bug icon then enable to Accept debug connections.2. Execute connection code via simple python code below.


import wingdbstubreload(wingdbstub)try:wingdbstub.Ensure()print 'Connected to WingIDE 6.0'except ValueError:print 'Could NOT connect to wingIDE'

Create server script into your %MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH%mayaWingServer.py


import sysimport socketimport threading

import maya.utils as muimport maya.OpenMaya as om

import executeWingCode

#Global variablesPORT = 6000 # Needs to be the same value as authored in wingHotkeys.py below.SIZE = 1024BACKLOG = 5

def server(processFunc=processDataInMaya, port=PORT, backlog=BACKLOG, size=SIZE):host = ''s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)try:s.bind((host,port))except:print 'Tried to open port %s, but failed: Its probably already open\n'%portreturn

s.listen(backlog)print 'Starting Python server, listening on port %s...\n'%portwhile True:client, address = s.accept() # client is a socket objectdata = client.recv(size)if data:processFunc(data)client.close()

def startServer():threading.Thread(target=server).start()

Start python server via simple python script at below.


import maya.cmds as cmdscmds.evalDeferred('import mayaWingServer; mayaWingServer.startServer()', lowestPriority=True)

Configuration of User hot key3. WING IDE FOR MAYA.

Create wingHotkeys.py into ‘C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\Roaming\Wing IDE 6\scripts\‘import wingapiimport socketimport osimport tempfiledef getWingText():editor = wingapi.gApplication.GetActiveEditor()if editor is None:returndoc = editor.GetDocument()start, end = editor.GetSelection()txt = doc.GetCharRange(start, end)return txtdef send_to_maya(language):# The port the sever is listening on in mayaWingServer.py :commandPort = 6000if language != 'mel' and language != 'python':raise ValueError('Expecting either 'mel' or 'python'')txt = getWingText()if language == 'mel':if not txt.endswith(';'):txt += ';'# Cross-platform way to get a temp dir:tempDir = tempfile.gettempdir()tempFile = os.path.join(tempDir, 'wingData.txt')f = open(tempFile, 'w')f.write(txt)f.close()mSocket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) # works in 2013...# Now ping Maya over the command-porttry:mSocket.connect(('localhost', commandPort)) # 2016, mac# Send our code to Maya:# It is intercepted via the function processDataInMaya(), created via mayaWingServer.pymSocket.send(language)except Exception, e:print 'Send to Maya fail:', emSocket.close()def python_to_maya():send_to_maya('python')def mel_to_maya():send_to_maya('mel')


Create executeWingCode.py into %MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH%

import __main__import osimport tempfileimport maya.OpenMaya as omdef main(codeType):# Cross-platform way to get a temp dir:tempDir = tempfile.gettempdir()tempFile = os.path.join(tempDir, 'wingData.txt').replace('\\', '/')if os.access(tempFile , os.F_OK):# Print the lines from the file in Maya:with open(tempFile, 'r') as f:for line in f.readlines():print line.rstrip()print '\n',if codeType == 'python':# execute the file contents in Maya:with open(tempFile , 'r') as f:exec(f, __main__.__dict__, __main__.__dict__)elif codeType == 'mel':melCmd = 'source %s'%tempFileom.MGlobal.executeCommand(melCmd, True, True)else:print 'No Wing-generated temp file exists: ' + tempFile


Go to Keyboard Personality -> Configure Tab Key…Press to Insert then set up to Key with Command.Command is ‘python_to_maya’


Go to Maya command line to type to code at below because When you receive from Wing-Ide that must open port local host with port of 6000.

cmds.commandPort(name="127.0.0.1:6000", close=True, echoOutput=True)

cmds.commandPort(name="127.0.0.1:6000", close=True, echoOutput=True)

Closing port command at below


Execution test

import maya.cmds as cmdscmds.polySphere(r=5)

Auto Complete.3. WING IDE FOR MAYA.

Go to ‘Edit > Preferences > Source Analysis’

In the ‘Interface File Path‘, add the ‘pi‘ folder you find inside the pymel you just extracted. TO be precise, it can be found in ’devkit/other/pymel/extras/completion/py’. For added measure, I added both sub-folders inside the pi folder as well.
