Run Script With Button

You can make a button run a trigger script by setting it up as explained below.

1. Create a tagg named: RUNSCRIPT_CMD and link it to a DrvDisk IO-device
2. Edit you button on a page and go to section "Write and read tags" and in field "Write to tags" type in RUNSCRIPT_CMD=1
3. Navigate to "System settings" -> "Scripts" -> "Trigger Scripts". Create a Trigger script and use the RUNSCRIPT_CMD=1 tag as the trigger in the settings for your script.

4. End your script by writing 0 to the RUNSCRIPT_CMD tag with the following script line below

   tags["RUNSCRIPT_CMD"].WriteValue(0, true);

5. Done!

NOTE!

This feature is not compatible with Call scripts; it exclusively functions with Trigger scripts only.

Tip

You can also call a call script using a button by using the button’s “Run javascript” setting.
In that field, write: fetch("/script/run?type=callscript&id=scriptname");
