maya-animation (Authoring stage)

Keyframes, timeline, curves, constraint / simulation baking, and animation curve I/O. Fourteen scripts in three logical clusters:

1. Frame / time queries — get_current_time, set_current_time, set_timeline, get_frame_range, query_scene_time_info.
2. Key editing — set_keyframe, get_keyframes, delete_keyframes, list_animation_curves, set_animation_curve_tangent.
3. Bake + persistence — bake_simulation, bake_constraints, export_animation_curves, import_animation_curves.

Scripts

• set_keyframe — Set a keyframe on an object at the given time
• get_keyframes — Get all keyframe times for an object / attribute
• set_timeline — Set the playback and animation timeline range
• get_current_time — Get the current frame number
• set_current_time — Set the current frame number
• delete_keyframes — Delete keyframes from an object within an optional frame range
• bake_simulation — Bake simulation / constraints to keyframes on objects
• list_animation_curves — List all animCurve nodes driving an object
• set_animation_curve_tangent — Set the tangent type on one or all keyframes of an animation curve
• bake_constraints — Bake constraint-driven animation to explicit keyframes
• export_animation_curves — Export animation curves for an object to a Maya .anim file
• import_animation_curves — Import animation curves from a file and optionally apply them to an object
• query_scene_time_info — Query the current scene time and playback settings
• get_frame_range — Return the scene's animation frame range
