Re: [Maya-Python] Maya 2024 pyMel ;(
Hi all,
PyMEL 1.3.0 has been released with support for 2023, and 1.4.0b1 has been
released with support for 2024. To install the beta for 2024 pip install
with --pre flag.
PyMEL is definitely still actively developed, as you can see from the
features discussed in this blog post:
https://dev.to/chadrik/pymels-new-type-stubs-2die
As for why PyMEL is no longer bundled with Maya, I'll do my best to
summarize the discussions with Autodesk on this topic. Firstly, there
seemed to be the impression that the new python API 2.0 solved the problems
with python scripting in Maya, which is an assessment that I don't agree
with. Nothing has appreciably changed with the ability to use maya.cmds
with the C++ API wrapper(s) in the 15 years since python was first added to
Maya. One pain point from Autodesk's perspective was that releasing Maya
required a certain amount of cooperation between Autodesk and the PyMEL
developers, which added extra steps for them and slowed them down, which is
a point I totally understand. Their assessment was that the pros of
installing via PyPI -- decoupled release schedules, esp the ability to
release patch fixes to PyMEL -- outweighed the cons -- extra steps for
users and headaches with installing behind a firewall. And lastly, I think
there was the feeling that there's a world of open source projects out
there for Maya, so "why should PyMEL get special status?"
What we're seeing with the delayed release of pymel for 2023 is one of the
downsides of the new arrangement: the lack of a hard deadline to get PyMEL
released in time to be bundled with Maya means it doesn't always make it to
the top of the issue stack at Luma (I managed to get all of the release
work done for 2023 and 2024 on my vacation and while sick).
If there are others out there who would like to cooperate on PyMEL, we're
happy to do so. The release process is very well documented, and I make an
effort to improve it every time I do the process.
I hope that clears things up. Let me know if you folks have any questions
and I'll do my best to answer them.

Hm, true. Could be as simple as that.

Still, surprised there was no conversation; I'd imagine someone may want to
take over, especially since a lot of pipeline out there depend on it.

Re: [Maya-Python] Maya 2024 pyMel ;(
The last tag was in Nov 2021
Could it be that it's not actively maintained anymore so Autodesk stopped
bundling it?

Re: [Maya-Python] Maya 2024 pyMel ;(
I've also tried getting to the bottom of why PyMEL stopped being included
to begin with in 2023, assuming I missed a conversation somewhere. But it
appears to have happened out of the blue over at Autodesk headquarters? :O
Maybe @Chad Dombrova knows more?

Seems like they might have stopped shipping with PyMel as of 2023 and you
need to manually install it?

Re: [Maya-Python] Maya 2024 pyMel ;(
Almost all of those calls have an equivalent maya cmds function, with the
difference that you pass the string name of the ui object returned from
previous ui calls. So just look at the Maya cmds python api.
Getting the main window name can be done with a call into mel:
gMainWindow = maya.mel.eval('$temp1=$gMainWindow')
