I'm not sure I fully understand what you are saying or asking but if you want to control aMule using scripts, amulecmd is a really handy tool. Since version 2.1.0 we are including amulecmd with our binaries. It's in "aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/".

For example, the following 'aspeed' script allows me to control aMule's upstream bandwidth, which is particularly when I want to access my machine remotely via vnc. Before I connect via vnc I do a "aspeed 20" over ssh to reduce aMule's upload speed to 20k/s. Very handy.

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
/Volumes/IncomingHD/-amule/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/amulecmd -c "Set BWLimit Up $1"

To get an idea of all of amulecmd's features, just start it via "/PathToaMule/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/amulecmd" in the Terminal (you need to set up remote connections before in aMule) and type "help":

Code: [Select]

aMulecmd$ help
Available commands:
Add           Adds an ed2k link to core.

An other PB

/Volumes/IncomingHD/-amule/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/amulecmd -c "Set BWLimit Up $1"
==>
Enter password for mule connection:

How I include my pwd in the script

Thanks

There are two options:
[list=1]

• Use the -P switch to include the password every time you invoke amulecmd. So start amulecmd for instance with

/Path/to/aMule/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/amulecmd -P "myPassword" -c "Some command".

• The more elegant way is to create a remote.conf file for amulecmd. You do this with

/Path/to/aMule/aMule.app/Contents/MacOS/amulecmd --create-config-from="/Users/myUser/Library/Application Support/aMule/amule.conf".
The advantage of this option is that you have to do it only once and from there on amulecmd automatically retrieves the password from the remote.conf file.
[/list=1]

Very good
I will test that immediately


On the other hand I have several crash landing of "Amule" when I use "amulecmd"

thanks

Interesting, I didn't have any amulecmd induced crashes so far.

It would be great if you could grab one of my debug cvs builds of aMule (see the URL in my sig) and try if you can get it to crash with the included amulecmd. If you then post a backtrace (i posted detailed instructions on how to do this in this thread) we will be able to fix the cause of the crash.

And, in effect, amulcmd crash aMule 2.10 mac. No pb with linux version...

[lionel77]

Pick, could you try to crash an aMule debug binary with amulecmd and then post the backtrace here on the forum? Then somebody could try to fix the crash.

I think my mule crashed cause to amulecmd flooding. My widget launch a new amulecmd request every 2 secs. I'm working on it.

[lionel77]

Heh, ok, that would explain it.
