Sending output of multiple commands to a file

upnort · Tue Sep 17, 2019 12:15 am

I want to collect some basic device data and save the information to a file that can be used off device. The information I want to store is something like this:

:local Resource [/system resource print]
:local Routerboard [/system routerboard print]
:local Identity [system identity print]
:local Service [/ip service print]

I want to concatenate the information with something like this:

:local DeviceInfo ($Resource $Routerboard $Identity $Service)

Then paste that information into a file.

do something with "$DeviceInfo" file=DeviceInfo.txt

Thanks again. )

I'm still looking for some coaching.

In my project Mikrotik for Splunk, I do get this information using syslog to send it out of all routers. See example here: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=137338#p698803

Not what I was looking for, but I see what you did. Thanks. I'm looking to store the information directly into a file rather than a remote log server.

Remember that high write counts of file may wear out the routers flash.

:local Resource [/system resource print]
:local Routerboard [/system routerboard print]
:local Identity [system identity print]
:local Service [/ip service print]

:local DeviceInfo ($Resource . "\r" . $Routerboard . "\r" . $Identity . "\r" . $Service)

:execute script=":put $DeviceInfo" file=DeviceInfo.txt

Better this...

:execute script="/system resource print; /system routerboard print; /system identity print; /ip service print;" file=DeviceInfo.txt
