Submitting scriptJobs without a GUI

Deadline
1

Using the dialogue shown below, i can execute custom mel or python scripts from the monitor.

how might i get this exact functionality using python from within maya? i would like to be able to submit scriptjobs WITHOUT envoking a dialogue.

What im hoping to find is something like (for example)

submitscriptjobtodeadline(pathtofile,pathtocustomscript,someothersettings)

Any help will be smiled upon

Thanks!

Hello Mike,

You can definitely do this using the manual submission process using the info at docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/produc … ssion.html via the deadlinecommand application. You can either take the current submission files from the temp folder(C:\Users<user>\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline7\temp on Windows) or you can use the full command sent to command as you see in that documentation. I hope that helps.
