Online Services - Run file

[itognet]

Hi Commit,

How can I have the Online Services to run a batch file instead of a web page.

Re: Online Services - Run file

Online Services were designed to access Web sites and services like Google Maps etc. and not specifically for running local (on PC) application (interesting). You can use the following though without passing parameters (because they are stripped, structured and formatted for URL standards).

For the Base URL set:

file://<fully path to your file>

For example:

file://c:/temp/mybatchfile.bat

Activating this Online Service will run this batch file, again, no parameters should be passed though.

Hey this is as interesting idea... could we pass parameters like file://path/to/batch.bat /<PARAM1> ?

Currently you can only run the program, however, this idea is indeed interesting and I can confirm that it will be supported in our next release.
