How do I control TeamViewer in a Mac terminal?

Question

I have TeamViewer installed (through the official GUI installer) under OS X on a PC. I'd like to find out the ID of said computer through SSH, which should be printed to terminal when I start TeamViewer, but I can't seem to be able to launch it since it already is running. Killing the process will not solve it as it's auto-regenerating. As a matter of fact, even sudo launchctl stop com.teamviewer.service doesn't seem to do anything.

Now, apparently, teamviewer should be able to stop itself if I were to run teamviewer --daemon stop, but I can't get any arguments to work:

Undercompy-Mac:MacOS underyx$ ./TeamViewer --daemon stop
A TeamViewer instance is already running.
Undercompy-Mac:MacOS underyx$ ./TeamViewer --help
A TeamViewer instance is already running.
Undercompy-Mac:MacOS underyx$ ./TeamViewer
A TeamViewer instance is already running.

Solution

defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.teamviewer.teamviewer9.plist ClientID

This Terminal command will read the Client ID from the application's preferences file.

Gotcha. Quick sidenote: I had to flag your other answer as it's actually a completely different question inatead of an answer to this one. You might want to post that as a separate question, it'll gain a lot more visibility.

Could you expand your answer? As is, it's hard to tell exactly what that does.
