Real-Time CMD Output

[johnmcloud]

Hi guys, for educational purpose i want to make a script for read a CMD output and make a progress bar for it

P.S I know the InetGet command, but i have other command-line software based on the same principle

The script:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GUIListBox.au3>
#include <ProgressConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
 
$GUI = GUICreate("Test", 270, 329, 248, 123)
$List = GUICtrlCreateList("", 8, 8, 249, 227)
GUICtrlSetData(-1, "")
$ProgressBar = GUICtrlCreateProgress(8, 248, 249, 25)
$ButtonStart = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start!", 8, 288, 250, 25)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
 
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
  Case $ButtonStart
   Example()
EndSwitch
WEnd

Func Example()
GUICtrlSetData($List, _ReadDos('C:\wget.exe [url="http://www.autoitscript.com/cgi-bin/getfile.pl?autoit3/autoit-v3-setup.exe"]http://www.autoitscript.com/cgi-bin/getfile.pl?autoit3/autoit-v3-setup.exe'[/url]) & @CRLF)
EndFunc
 
Func _ReadDOS($command)
    Local $text = '', $Pid = Run('"' & @ComSpec & '" /c ' & $command, '', @SW_HIDE, 2+4)
    While 1
        $text &= StdoutRead($Pid, False, False)
        If @error Then ExitLoop
        Sleep(10)
    WEnd
    Return $text
EndFunc

The wget link for test:

http://users.ugent.be/~bpuype/cgi-bin/fetch.pl?dl=wget/wget.exe

For me not work, i don't have the list updated. But i see the progress on Console:

If you get this sorted I would be highly interested in code sharing to see how you did it. I'm having some pretty heavy issues with handling CMD window executions lately and would love to see how you went about it.

[johnmcloud]

No problem, but i can't do this by myself, i need some expert help

[wakillon]

Use StderrRead instead of StdoutRead

[johnmcloud]

I have found a solurion for wget, but why i can't apply to other?

GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, 0)
$CMDDir = $soft & ' "' & $URL & '"'
$CMDCommand = Run($CMDDir, @ScriptDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD)
ProcessSetPriority($CMDCommand, 0)
$streamcounter = 0
While ProcessExists($CMDCommand)
  If 1 <= $streamcounter Then
   $readstream = StderrRead($CMDCommand)
   $tmp = _StringBetween($readstream, ".....", '%')
   If @error <> 1 Then
    $percent = StringReplace($tmp[0], ".", "");
    $percent = StringStripWS($percent, "7");
    GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, $percent)
    GUICtrlSetData($LabelStatus, "Status: Downloading... " & $percent & "%")
   EndIf
   $streamcounter = 0
  EndIf
  $streamcounter = $streamcounter + 1
WEnd
GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, 100)
GUICtrlSetState($DownloadButton, $GUI_ENABLE)
GUICtrlSetData($LabelStatus, "Status: Ready")

With StringReplace and StringStripWS remove all the .... and the space, and work. But for another commandline not work

Output example:

Connecting ...

  moovPosition        32.00

So i have make:

GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, 0)
$CMDDir = $soft & " -r" & " " & $URL & " " & "-o " & '"' & @WorkingDir & "video.flv" & '"'
$CMDCommand = Run($CMDDir, @ScriptDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD)
ProcessSetPriority($CMDCommand, 0) ;; lowest
$streamcounter = 0
While ProcessExists($CMDCommand)
  If 1 <= $streamcounter Then
   $readstream = StderrRead($CMDCommand)
   $percent = _StringBetween($readstream, "sec (", "%)")
   If @error <> 1 Then
    GUICtrlSetData($LabelStatus, "Status: Downloading... " & $percent & "%")
    GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, $percent) ;; progress bar
   EndIf
   $streamcounter = 0
  EndIf
  $streamcounter = $streamcounter + 1
WEnd
GUICtrlSetData($ProgressBar, 100)
GUICtrlSetState($DownloadButton, $GUI_ENABLE)
GUICtrlSetData($LabelStatus, "Status: Ready)

Status is always ready, i can't understand why.

Please a little help

Thanks for support

All command line tools don't give output in same way.

You need to adapt case by case...

You have right, but the second don't give me any output on autoit

$readstream = StdoutRead($CMDCommand)
ConsoleWrite($readstream)

Is empty

On classic CMD i see all information. What is the error?

Thanks

EDIT If i use StderrRead and ConsoleWrite, i can see on Console this:

It will be more easy to help you if you show your code...
