Sorry, maybe you didn't understand what I meant!

/file print file=result.txt
/file set [find name="result.txt"] contents=[/interface pppoe-client get [find name=pppoe-out1] password]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A script like this can generate a file containing variables, but the file content is only one line. If there are new variables, how can they be added to the second line of result.txt?

Rosa, I think your answer is in […]

example code

/system clock
:local dt        "$[get date] $[get time]"
:local filename  "datetime.txt"

/file
:if ([:len [find where name="flash" and type="disk"]] = 1) do={:set filename "flash/$filename"}
:if ([:len [find where name=$filename]] = 0) do={print file="$filename"; :delay 1s; set $filename contents=""}

:local filecontent    [get $filename contents]
:local newfilecontent "New:\t$dt\r\n$filecontent"
set $filename contents=$newfilecontent

/file print file=result.txt
/file set [find name="result.txt"] contents=[/interface pppoe-client get [find name=pppoe-out1] password]

So if you can't do something, is it my fault that I don't understand you?
I'm sorry, but as usual, instead of trying to understand how it should be done,
you want to do it the way you think it should be done, so I can't help you understand how it should correctly be done.

Thank you for your script example, but this is not what I want. My script loop will produce some results, and my main purpose is to save these results to a file because saving to a file can prevent sudden power outages from time to time. Besides/file set, is there any other good way?

I store my sensitive information on an FTP server located within my LAN.

Can multiple results be stored in the same file? Is HTTP or FTP okay? Or can it only be FTP? Can you provide some sample scripts?

# FTP Config
:local ftpserver "192.168.88.10"
:local username  "myftpusername"
:local password  "myftppassword"
:local port      21

/system clock
:local dt        "$[get date] $[get time]"
:local filename  "datetime.txt"

/file
:if ([:len [find where name="flash" and type="disk"]] = 1) do={:set filename "flash/$filename"}
:if ([:len [find where name=$filename]] = 0) do={print file="$filename"; :delay 1s; set $filename contents=""}

:local filecontent    [get $filename contents]
:local newfilecontent "New:\t$dt\r\n$filecontent"
set $filename contents=$newfilecontent

:delay 1s
:do {
/tool fetch address=$ftpserver mode=ftp user=$username password=$password \
    src-path=$filename dst-path=$filename upload=yes port=$port
:log info "FTP Backup: File $textfilename sent successfully"
:delay 5s
/file remove $filename
} on-error={
        :log info "=> FTP sent failed"
}

After reading the link provided by my friend below, I can understand what you're saying now.

some code

{
:local filename "history_users_and_passwords.txt"
:local pppoeArr [/interface pppoe-client print detail as-value]
:local addThis  ""

:foreach item in=$pppoeArr do={
    :set addThis ($addThis."Password for user >$($item->"user")< is >$($item->"password")<\r\n")
}

/file
:if ([:len [find where name="flash" and type="disk"]] = 1) do={:set filename "flash/$filename"}
:if ([:len [find where name=$filename]] = 0) do={print file="$filename"; :delay 4s; set $filename contents=""}
:delay 2s
:local filecontent [get $filename contents]
:local newfilecontent "$filecontent$addThis"
set $filename contents=$newfilecontent
}

1) Yes, you can save several results in the same file: see example in my previous post.

2) I have only tested it by FTP and it works.

3) Example of script using FTP

Code: Select all

# FTP Config
:local ftpserver "192.168.88.10"
:local username  "myftpusername"
:local password  "myftppassword"
:local port      21

/system clock
:local dt        "$[get date] $[get time]"
:local filename  "datetime.txt"

/file
:if ([:len [find where name="flash" and type="disk"]] = 1) do={:set filename "flash/$filename"}
:if ([:len [find where name=$filename]] = 0) do={print file="$filename"; :delay 1s; set $filename contents=""}

:local filecontent    [get $filename contents]
:local newfilecontent "New:\t$dt\r\n$filecontent"
set $filename contents=$newfilecontent

:delay 1s
:do {
/tool fetch address=$ftpserver mode=ftp user=$username password=$password \
    src-path=$filename dst-path=$filename upload=yes port=$port
:log info "FTP Backup: File $textfilename sent successfully"
:delay 5s
/file remove $filename
} on-error={
        :log info "=> FTP sent failed"
}

Oh, finally you understand and now I can help you without brainless cut-and-paste

some code

{
:local filename "history_users_and_passwords.txt"
:local pppoeArr [/interface pppoe-client print detail as-value]
:local addThis  ""

:foreach item in=$pppoeArr do={
    :set addThis ($addThis."Password for user >$($item->"user")< is >$($item->"password")<\r\n")
}

/file
:if ([:len [find where name="flash" and type="disk"]] = 1) do={:set filename "flash/$filename"}
:if ([:len [find where name=$filename]] = 0) do={print file="$filename"; :delay 4s; set $filename contents=""}
:delay 2s
:local filecontent [get $filename contents]
:local newfilecontent "$filecontent$addThis"
set $filename contents=$newfilecontent
}

But it would be better if you explained exactly what you need:
Do you lose your password when the device turns off???
Probably you just need one "export" for backup all the RouterBARD configuration, and save it elsewhere.

on some 7.13.something is 64KB

use

/interface pppoe-client export file=exportuserandpassword

the export is "dirty" of other values, but export all users.
