Call maya's command from outer application or command shell

[illunara]

Hi everybody
Can i control an instance of maya's application, calling maya's command from command shell or other application?
Mayapy is not an option, i guess.
Thank ;)

You can refer to my MayaSublime plugin:
https://github.com/justinfx/MayaSublime/blob/master/MayaSublime.py

I'm doing basically that, connecting to Maya's command port, over telnet.

You can run Maya in headless mode or communicate with it via command ports.

You can also use some sort of rpc system if you want to run maya like a remote python interpreter - i've used zeromq in the past (look up Rob's dccautomation) and have used rpyc just recently. pretty nice and seamless.

so many options... ;)

cheers,

I love you guys so much, thank for quick and and clearly reply.

Since we can use Eclipse as maya IDE, i think it possible too, and you guys give me a lots more option than that.
I think i will go with Justin's plugin ;)
