  • BinkD exec

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Sat Feb 20 23:53:36 2021
    I'm trying to get BinkD to execute a script when files that have the
    following syntax arrive at 1/100

    z21n*.*

    I can't seem to crack it, any thoughts?

    If I explicitly state a set file extension the exec will trigger but I don't know what that will be. So I'm after a way to get it to look at the first
    four letters of the filename and then trigger on that.

    I'm not sure if you meant to post this in the test echo or not, but I'll reply here. ;)

    What I'm doing in my binkd.cfg file, is something like:

    exec "~/mystic/rcs/fsxnet/stats.sh" fsxnet.z??

    It should work with:

    exec "~/path/to/makenl/makenl.sh" z21n*.*

    or

    exec "~/path/to/makenl/makenl.sh" z21n?.???

    Yeah, I havent looked at the code to see why, but on file receipt binkd only matches on wildcard extensions:

    eg: test.* z21.[abc]* etc

    If you want binkd to match on wildcard names, you need to prefix it with a full path.

    So in your case,

    exec "/usr/local/tools/myscript.sh" /fido/mailer/inbound/z21n*

    Should work.
