June 27, 201610 yr Author Really?! Damn I got some catching up to do.... Man, I never hit the linux command line (beyond very very basic stuff - I'm a DOS guy) prior to just before CR was released (or wrote a line of code since I was a teenager). Look how far you've come with the dvb plugin Sent from my LG-D852 using Tapatalk
June 27, 201610 yr Errr. You wrote that... I just maintain it.... without fully understanding how a lot of it works.

June 27, 201610 yr Author Did some research, and due to how I handle the enabling / disabling of the buttons when running in the background, there is a limitation on what characters are allowed in the name of the folder Only letters ([A-Za-z]), digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"), colons (":"), periods ("."), and spaces (" ") are allowed. Anything else will mess up the background running (but will probably work in the foreground) Technically, other characters would be valid, but due to the massive amount of escaping, you're best to just keep it simple. In particular, avoid single and double quotes. This is because of the HTML, not passing the command to bash. An update will be released tomorrow which will handle spaces in the folder names (oversight on my part), after further testing.
June 27, 201610 yr Quick question: If I close the script windows, does it actually halt the command that has already been called? So I created a script that manually trigger the mover (which naturally takes a while to run). But then that's the only command so I wonder if I can simply close the script windows and the mover would continue to run.
June 27, 201610 yr Author Yeah it would stop the command. You would need to run it in the background. Aborts on background tasks will kill the running script, but if the script called a long running command at the time of abort (something like find) then that command will run to completion.

June 27, 201610 yr Would it be possible to add the ability to schedule a script, to run every x hour? Or each monday at x (like CA has with appdata backup).
June 27, 201610 yr Author So that I don't get too much feature creep on this would hourly, daily, weekly, monthly suffice set via dynamix scheduled suffice? Sent from my LG-D852 using Tapatalk

June 28, 201610 yr Now go easy on me here as I've been awake over 24 hours pretty much... I've spent an hour trying to work out where I was going wrong...... It won't execute the script if it's called script.sh

June 28, 201610 yr Hey Squid, Just been trying this with a kernel compiling script. #!/bin/bash wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CHBMB/Unraid-DVB/master/build_scripts/kernel_compile_modules/kernel_compile_module_use_config_beta.sh -P /mnt/disk1/dvb/ chmod +x /mnt/disk1/dvb/kernel_compile_module_use_config_beta.sh cd /mnt/disk1/dvb/ /mnt/disk1/dvb/kernel_compile_module_use_config_beta.sh Now i'm running it in the foreground so I can follow it's progress, but it's running very slowly, well specifically, the logging seems to be running slowly, the actual script is running faster I think if that makes sense. Can't quite get my head around what is happening apart from maybe my CPU is flat out and the logging is lagging behind...
June 28, 201610 yr Author If there's tons and tons and tons of stuff to display then it's going to lag because of the constant page update for each line and chrome chugging through it. No different than hitting the log button on unraid keeping it open for a month (so there's an insane amount of lines already displayed) and the watching it as you log more items. Nothing I can do about it. The upcoming background running with logging will alleviate that to a certain extent Sent from my LG-D852 using Tapatalk

I'll run it as a background and send an alert when it's finished.
June 29, 201610 yr Author ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD - Added in automatic background script logging (and ability to delete the logs when the script isn't running) - Fixed the inability to run a script in the background if the directory contained a space The log display is just a tail of the log (at the start and end of execution, the plugin will inform you of the location of the complete log should you need to analyze it) ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD
June 30, 201610 yr Author Added in background scheduling for scripts Schedules are hourly, daily, weekly, monthly. The time of execution can be modified by the Dynamix Schedules plugin (available on CA) Edited February 21, 20179 yr by Squid
