 global	AirButton = function()
{ 
print("airblow toggle"); 
system.Exec("sfk udpsend sonoff5:9889 {\"switch\":2}" );
    yield(); 
return;
};

thanks , works perfectly when executable is in the system PATH

I can now send this json udp packet to my sonoff switch and turn the exhaust duct fan on/off for the laser fume extractor
from the auggie console 


[code] global AirButton = function()
{
print("airblow toggle");
system.Exec("sfk udpsend sonoff5:9889 {\"switch\":2}" );
    yield();
return;
};[/code]

system.Exec("Notepad "

notepad works ok. but not my wget.exe ,  i will try locating it in the "PATH"
in the morning , its late here pumpkins everywhere

YaNvrNo:

  Good thing you remembered that, I knew there was something we added but couldnt
quite remember what.. :)

Art

found some examples:
system.Exec(path+file);
system.Exec("Notepad " + path + file);

try this:
system.Exec("c:\ctwin\s5.bat");

 
global	AirButton = function()
{
 
 
print("airblow toggle"); 
Exec("c:\ctwin\s5.bat");
    yield();
 
return;
};
 

tried Exec, Execute , got nothing except the print message

[code]
global AirButton = function()
{


print("airblow toggle");
Exec("c:\ctwin\s5.bat");
    yield();

return;
};
[/code]

i have been playing around reprogramming sonoff  wifi switches to operate at my beck and call. it occurred to me that it would be a nice way to control
pumps, compressors exhaust fans  etc from auggie without the need for any physical connection.
i can use the command line utility wget.exe
{wget "http://10.0.0.131/st?sw=4" } to send a command to the sonoff

can auggie script run an os shell ?
