• Javascript Door

    From Rassilon@CITADEL to All on Thursday, March 25, 2010 23:37:00
    I was just trying to add a javascript door & I seem to have run into a snag.
    I can't get the javascript to run. Synchronet just pauses for a second & returns to the prompt.

    Is it even possible to write a door in javascript or do I need to use baja or C++ or something?

    Please paste your configuration from SCFG here.

    Yes, JavaScript modules can be executed as doors (e.g. xtrn/tw2/tw2.js). See http://wiki.synchro.net/howto:door:index#modules for details.

    Yeah, there's three or four allready written.... In a way, one would assume
    Javascript is the easiest to write a door in, since it automatically has
    support for writing to the serial port and console at the same time...

    To execute a JavaScript door, you need to start the command line with a ?. For example, for Deuce's FS editor:
    ?fseditor.js %f

    Is it even possible to write a door in javascript or do I need to use baja o C++ or something?

    Yes, doors can be written in JavaScript, although they tend to be Synchronet-specific doors. Synchronet comes with at least one Synchronet door (tw2), and things like Deuce's FS editor and SlyEdit are written in JavaScript.

    so how would you run a door from the js menu like classic_shell.js?

    bbs.exec_xtrn("code") is the most correct way to run any "door" from a shell, regardless of what language the door is written in. Alternatively, you could use load() or bbs.exec(), but I dont' recommend it.

    works great, thanks. no I can learn javascript and build custom menus sections. here is the first code of my door menu.

    //############################ Doors Menu ###############################

    function doors()
    {
    var key;

    while(1) {
    if(!(user.settings & USER_EXPERT))
    bbs.menu("doors");

    console.print("\r\nGame Menu: ");
    key=get_next_keys("?XA\r");
    bbs.log_key(key);
    switch(key) {

    case '?':
    if(user.settings & USER_EXPERT)
    bbs.menu("doors");
    break;

    case 'A':
    bbs.exec_xtrn("amb4")
    break;

    case 'X':
    default:
    return;
    }
    }
    }

    I had done one in baja and now figured to make a js one.
    synchronet has changed a lot over the years, but the extern system stayed the same. thanks again.

    Yeah, I tried that. Must be something else I'm doing wrong.
