RouterOS Scripting

Boys, you still focus on entities treated as “numbers”. What if the version includes “betaNN” or “rcNN”?

22

You could use my function “VersionToNum”, which should cover all cases:

Our deployment scripts are only concerned with production devices, so having beta or release candidates is not something we check for.

Thanks @eworm
Here’s the one we use

# Convert version string to number
:global doversion do={
	:local coeff 100000
	:local result 0
	:for i from=0 to=([:len $string] -1) do={
		:set $val [:pick $string $i]
		:if ($val != ".") do={
			:set $result ($result + ($coeff * [:tonum $val]))
			:if ($coeff >= 1) do={:set $coeff ($coeff / 10)}
		}
	}
	:return $result
}

Hotspot Login Script

:log warning [:tonum $address];

This is not working

:log warning [:tonum 10.10.10.10];

This is working

RouterOS 7.18.2
