Hi. I wrote a script using pyAlembic that I can use to parse a file and list contents etc. I am not sure how to execute the external script from within maya, with an argument (path) and return a list that is generated from the script.
I have read up on python's subprocess module and os.popen but I'm a little confused by the application. (I dont have a programming background) Is there another way to return a value? It seems pretty complicated for what *seems* to be a basic requirement. Tried looking for examples online but coming up short. Can anyone point me to either a python-For-Dummies-level explanation, an example or even mention if subprocess is the way to go?
