Hey Folks,
I am trying to download and install setup_tools, easy_install and tinydb all from within mayas python interpreter.. I'm pretty close, but it looks like the system command to run ez-setup.py is not downloading the easy_install packages to mayas site_packages directory, which is strange because the same command works perfectly in the shell.. So the system call reads like this: /Applications/Autodesk/maya2016/Maya.app/Contents/bin/mayapy /Users/paxtongerrish/downloads/ez_setup.py I am pointing mayas python interpreter at ez_setup.py When i punch this command into the shell, it downloads setup_tools to mayas python site_packages directory... Great! :D However.. I need to have this all happen from inside mayas python interpreter and it does not work when called from os.system or subprocess.call Any help super appreciated.. thanks! import os import sys import urllib2 import subprocess setup_tools_address = 'https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py' downloads_directory = '%s/downloads' % os.getenv('HOME') if not os.path.exists(downloads_directory): os.makedirs(downloads_directory) def setup(): url = setup_tools_address file_path = '%s/%s' % (downloads_directory, url.split('/')[-1]) maya_py = maya_py_path() for p in download_url(url, file_path): print p system_command = '%s %s' % (maya_py, file_path) print '----- sys command--- (only works in shell)------\n' print system_command print '\n----------------------------------------------\n' #This system command works from shell, but not from python....
