Re: parameter with quote mark

This is an example of what I have in mind. Write python wrapper script .. command.py .. and save in same directory as your *.ascr script. [command.py] #!/usr/bin/env python import subprocess def runcmd(): p = subprocess.Popen(["program.exe", "-path-to-config='c:\project\project 1\proj...

Re: parameter with quote mark

Sometimes I just call from Actiona command a python wrapper script which uses subprocess
to allow long commands, with multiple args, to be invoked.

Have you tried single quotes?

Re: Loop syntax

Thanks for that explanation. It had me puzzled and I had tried loop forward instead of loop backward.
Actiona wiki documents which are a bit slim could benefit from an update in parts

I've remembered another extension which I installed for testing.

Re: Call JavaScript Function in HTML page

I don't yet interact with web pages (Selenium does that) but I gave some thought to how I might approach this. Normally I would use curl to scrape web page content. Is the web page under your control or created elsewhere? In Chromium browser I read about creating a new extension. I followed the exam...

running actexec in proxy mode to download remote file

I am experimenting with downloads of pre-built .ascr scripts into a bootstrap.ascr in desktop (Ubuntu 16.04). The idea is to hold a remote repository of *.ascr scripts in a server (initially just a localhost server for test purposes). I can inspect the options (args) through the command man actexec ...

Re: Using actexec on a headless server

I have no experience in using ODROID. But from what I have just read by searching around can't you SSH from your control PC into ODROID and execute your "remote" actexec (or other) scripts? You will need to install SSH server capability in Ubuntu in your ODROID target and setup SSH on your...

Re: Focus on Input Dialogue Box

I am a bit puzzled. I am running Actiona in Ubuntu 16.04 actiona -v Actiona version 3.9.1, script version 1.1.0 but I don't see where to include Qtlibrary. I am at a disadvantage since the English documents are lagging behind French documents on wiki. And I am not multi-lingual. So I cannot (yet) se...

Re: Focus on Input Dialogue Box

I'm pleased that this glitch was resolved by this work around although the root cause was not found - why no focus? I still see the odd quirk from time to time. For example if I save script I see a persistent blank popup window which requires me to kill Actiona process to get rid of it. When I have ...

Re: Focus on Input Dialogue Box

I'm surprised that this forum is very quiet. In my Ubuntu 16.04 OS I cannot recreate the problem you describe. I created a single action in test.ascr to create an input dialogue and when it is launched through actexec test.ascr the input field is in focus. I did try another experiment. I created ano...

Re: Focus on Input Dialogue Box

I am currently developing in Linux (Ubuntu) so I don't (yet) have experience running actexec.exe. On suggestion might be to run actexec.exe in Windows admin mode since it might be some permissions problem. But that is only a theory since I have not used windows for some time (although I will soon be...

Re: Hotkey assign?

I'm using Actiona myself to automate a local development workflow. I can see that your requested feature would be useful for automating editing so I decided to explore how I might build this into my own workflow. But the Actiona action "Key" is designed to emulate key presses. After diggin...

Re: Run Actiona scripts in turn?

I also see File > Import > Script content which would also merge scripts.
