@MaybeGrimm: It is possible to add metadata to a file, using the script, as long as the external program and the target file supports it. The script just passes the relevant variables to the external program. If you want to use 'exiftool', make sure you are able to add the metadata manually via CLI. Then, in the script, modify the path to 'exiftool' and the 'parameters' if necessary.

I thought that just for being images (I want the Pinterest comments to appear in the comment metadata of the file) and considering I can put the metadata manually, it has to work. But apparently I can't make it with the CLI and exiftool (IDK if I'm doing everything right).
It's impossible to make it work with another program, right? I that case, I could use a single info-file :/
Sorry for the trouble.

Contact me in JD Chat. I can try to help you troubleshoot.

Hi,

with the new trigger-functionality now we can start a script on button-press.
Very, very nice.
With this scenario I want to build an interactive script with an datetime-picker at script start.
For instance:
1. button pressed in JD-menu launches the script.
2. the script should launch a dialog box with a datetime-picker (at best there would be a cancel-button).
3. after input the script then processes the value ... (or abortes on cancel-button).

Now my question:
How to render the picker, because we have no html-canvas onto we can render the UI-elements (form, etc)?
(The only GUI-canvas I see is the alert-popup, but can it blown up to a multifunctional UI-element?)


Thx for reading this.
A lot more thanks for a reply.

Antwort von ottoS:
Ok, the date picker is nice, but separate inputs will also be fine.
But this brings me to my next question: How to render a self-composed input-dialog-UI with a bunch of canvas elements (label, input-fields, buttons) in the jd-desktop-GUI environment?

thx

That is not possible and I don't think that we will add support such feature in near future/at all. The moment that kind of gui is required, I think it makes more sense to code it outside of JDownloader and communicate via API with JDownloader

Hi there Pls excuse me but i got some questions where this thread and the script-editor help-page didnt helped me out :(

1) Is it possible to handle the proxy list (instead of just accessing the environment variable)?
2) is there a function for links like mylink.hasStopMark() ?
3) is there a way to get proxy address of a link?
4) how to execute a scipt just once (if i wanna create an infinite while(true)-loop)
would setting "interval = 99999999....." do the job?
5) about the status string of the links (mylink.getStatus()) ... they are all localized. so I have to define a config var at the top of the script like this?

cfgstr.waitingNoConnection = "Keine Internetverbindung?";
...
if(link.getStatus() == cfgstr.waitingNoConnection) {
...

or is there a better way?

Many many thanks in advance

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:

Ok, I managed to create my own solution for the link status problem

But for the other of my points I didnt find any workaround yet :/

API call can be used to get the stopmarkedlink, which can then be compared with 'mylink.'

var stopMarkedLink = callAPI("downloadsV2", "getStopMarkedLink");

4) how to execute a scipt just once (if i wanna create an infinite while(true)-loop)
would setting "interval = 99999999....." do the job?

Tried the event trigger "Jdownloader started"? Mainly depends on the type of script. Can also build/use time based events.

That stopMarkedLink-Thingy is neat Thank you
Well, the trigger "Jdownloader started" just gets called right after JD started and not when it has been started already and the script is beeing configured and saved.. But never mind I will find a way

And for the getStatus() behaviour I added an attachement with my solution and onetwo other things, if someone needs it

HI,
If I make a script test I have this error
RefereceError: "link" is not defined. (#6)
where am I wrong?

@donnje: What trigger did you use? Please be aware that it depends on the set trigger what objects you can access

on event script i make a new script and past the code
i put a none trigger
can you explain to me how I can do, please?

[Jiaz]

Script will only work with a trigget that provides a link object. See the comment in script *Trigger required: "A Download Stopped"

tnx for your patience
I don't understand
I would like to move the files I have completed to download to a specific folder, is it posible?

[Jiaz]

yes, but the script does only move *non archive files*. Archive files are not moved to not break extraction

my file is "no archive file" :(
