Re: How to write string to a file using script ?
Code: Select all
# Create a file with specific content.
{
# Variables.
:local filename "test.txt"
:local content "This is a test."
# Create file.
/file print file=$filename
# Set file's content.
/file set $filename contents=$content
}I forget the size and method though, but at some point [/file get $filename contents] just starts either giving blank results or throw errors.

your script is not working

Your comment is not helping.your script is not working
Jokes aside. Helps if you tell me how it isn't working or what is going wrong.
You might need a delay between creating the file and changing the content.
Code: Select all
# Create a file with specific content.
{
# Variables.
:local filename "test.txt"
:local content "This is a test."
# Create file.
/file print file=$filename where name=""
# Wait for the file to be created.
:delay 1
# Set file's content.
/file set $filename contents=$content
}

also note, due to mikrotik's implementation, variable value sizes can be up to 4096 bytes.
this ultimately limits the file size you create this way.
