Read from an existing cmd opened from a batch file an do something


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I have already read about 50 pages and I cannot find the solution to my question.
I need to read a cmd window that is permanently updating data that originally runs from a batch file.
It must always read the information that is updated until a line with certain specific information appears, for example:

 

[10:46:51] INFO - ======================== Summary 2021-05-12 10:46:51 ========================

this example its a GPU mining, but its for something similar.

 

and when a line appears that says overclocking somewhere, a specific action is triggered such as restarting the computer.

I've already read StdOutRead but I don't want to run the batch file from

Run(@ComSpec & " /c, etc ...............)

I just need to read from an already running window and perform the action.

Give me a hand?
Thank you

Have you checked these commands in the Helpfile and their examples?:

  • Run()
  • StdoutRead()
  • StderrRead()

i need to read an open external window.

What is the issue with running it via a batch file?
Should work fine as long as the batchfile remains running and doesn't shell the program and exit.
...so .... we need more details and your current script you tried that isn't working ....  and tell use what happens.

I appreciate your help, I really don't want them to do things for me, but I haven't used autoit for more than 4 years and I've forgotten a lot of things, I'm not a programmer, I do it as a hobby.

The theme is like this:
I have a miner that runs a .bat at the start of windows, I can safely run it through autoit, but I wanted to learn how to get a window already open.
well let's continue ... in the miner the information is constantly appearing that is updated second by second, but I have had some problems with one of my plates and it gives me an overclock error, so ... at that moment the error appears I I need the pc to reboot.

the issue is that I don't remember how to read an already open cmd window and go looking for that information.

I apologize for not being very clear perhaps, but I really do not remember how to do some things that for the more experienced should be very very simple.

Thank you.

and what if the overclocking messes with the CUDA cores and you only find that something is wrong when it crashes but meanwhile, the GPU was not calculating good hashes anyway !. Don't over-over-clock. It'll be better than rebooting. ( my 2 cents., I don't mine )

yes its right, but i dont over clock my gpus, but in some moment the miner crash, its not all the time, maybe one time on a week, but always do that when i ám in my job and i´ll take some hours to reboot them. sometimes i can reboot with teamviewer, but if the cpu its freezed. i cant do nothing.

i prefer one script monitoring and as soon as it happens, take action for me.

what process opened the command window in the first place?

Code hard, but don’t hard code...

see if that does it.
