[Bf-committers] Question about external Blender interface

[Dalai Felinto]

Hi Pablo,

This can be implemented via Python, but you will need to handle all
the socket connectivity part.

It would be nice to have this built-in in Blender (maybe as new
bpy.app.handlers). But I don't think anyone is working on this it at
the moment.
