Question:
Context:
I have a Batch that I cannot change , its function is to list some files in a specific directory, and after it lists the files it waits for some command from the user.Problem:
I would like to automate this process, but without touching the original batch, that is, send this command that the batch is waiting for via another batch with a loop every 1 minute.
Searching in some forums, I found some people suggesting using the pipe to send the commands, but it doesn't work when the batch waits for the user's input.
I would like to know if anyone has any idea of sending the command at the time the batch waits for input?
Exemplo do batch:
Arquivos parados em Download
Não há arquivos parados em Download
COMANDO :
Answer:
Probably this bat has a command similar to this:
set /p comando=Comando:
this waits for something to be typed. If this command was loaded, you can't skip it later. In this case there would have to be a GOTO sending the script to another field but this must be typed inside the bat.
Ex:
goto Pular
set /p comando=Comando:
:Pular
in that case the command "set /p command=Command:" would be ignored
there is also a way to send information to bat when running it. but bat would load it as %1 %2 %3… ex:
call teste.bat Fala1 Fala2 Fala3
Test.bat file: (if it fails, remove the "~" sign before the number).
set aa=%~1
set bb=%~2
set cc=%~3
Echo %aa% %bb% %cc%
pause >nul
