Installation

Currently, Pyblish only works with Maya 2014 and upwards.

Installing Pyblish for Maya

If you haven't already installed Pyblish, head on over the the Pyblish installation guide to get started.

• Pyblish

# Pyblish for Maya is a regular Python package on PyPI
$ pip install pyblish-maya

A technical mission

This next step is a little technical, but we're working on finding a more comfortable way of doing this for you. If you have any ideas, do contact us, but for now, we'll need you to add the path to a directory within the installation of Pyblish for Maya called pythonpath to your PYTHONPATH environment variable.

# For example..
$ setx PYTHONPATH=%PYTHONPATH%;c:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\pyblish_maya\pythonpath
