Detailed Description

A class that wraps up the entire export process.

This command will export the maya hierarchy at the specified prim path or selection, into the USD format. During traversal of the maya DAG hierarchy, the USD schema type is exported on the prim if it can be determined from the maya node type, if the schema type couldn't be determined a Xform type prim is exported to represent it. If a known type is found, then it is exported via the the corresponding export translator which is configured based on the input parameters of the command.

Each exporter has an explicit list of plugs that will get exported if certain input parameters are passed in then they can be exported over a frame range

Instances are currently not fully supported. If instances are encountered and the duplicateInstances flag is ON, then the hierarchy is deduplicated. If duplicateInstances is off then only the first instance found is exported.
