HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: scripts to make my life easier!

« on: June 10, 2011, 10:21:41 AM »

3. i'm always happy when i see people scripting with HFS, despite its poor language.

Thanks rejetto, I admire your humility!
I will work and try what you suggested so that I don't have to use an external app next time.

Anyway, I am attaching the perl script I made for other people who might be interested. You must have the code below in hfs.event:

[every 2 seconds]
{.load|automatic.txt.}
{.delete|automatic.txt.}

Script might be dirty, I'm not good at it!

Are you serious? I hope you're joking.

Anyway, I managed to create a script (perl) that lets you (on the command line) define the $name variable and then outputs the commands to automatic.txt which then HFS executes on hfs.event.

One more question though, on the {.set item} command, how can I tell it to make the folder "Non Browseable"?

Many thanks!

After a bit of searching on the forums I fond out about hfs.event and can use this code:

[every 2 seconds]
{.load|automatic.txt.}
{.delete|automatic.txt.}

The automatic.txt I came up with looks like this:

{.mkdir|C:\MainFolder\$name.}
{.mkdir|C:\MainFolder\$name\Public.}
{.add folder|real|C:\MainFolder\$name|/MainFolder/$name.}
{.add folder|real|C:\MainFolder\$name\Public|/MainFolder/$name/Public.}
{.new account|$name|password=password|enabled=true|member of=can change password.}
{.set item|/MainFolder/$name|hide=0|access=$name|delete=$name|upload=$name.}
{.set item|/MainFolder/$name/Public|hide=1|access=@anyone|delete=$name|upload=@anyone.}

2 Questions:
- Where or how do I define the $name variable?
- Are the commands on the script correct?

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / scripts to make my life easier!

Firstly, thank you for this brilliant software!

Now the problem, my tree structure is like this --> ROOT - MainFolder - UserFolder.
The "UserFolder" folder is a real folder named after a user account, so the user "John" has his folder named "John" (i.e. ROOT - MainFolder - John) which only he has access rights.
So I need to create about a hundred accounts with their own folders and permissions.

The script I can imagine will do this:
- %user% string (i.e. John)
- mkdir C:\MainFolder\%user%
- create account in HFS for %user%
- create %user% folder in HFS with the proper permissions for %user%

Any ideas or tips to get me started? Thanks you in advance!!!
