[Ovmsdev] Script engine not working?

[Michael Balzer]

Soko,

reading the source is always a good thing :-), but there's actually also
documentation on scripting:
https://docs.openvehicles.com/en/latest/userguide/scripting.html

Scripts are run by their name, not path. So you would simply do…

OVMS# script run vfstest
…or shorter…
OVMS# . vfstest

Oops… having tried a command (non-javascript) script from the web
console just now: apparently there is a bug in the output processing,
that currently only works on the USB console. I'll have a look at that.
But command scripts really can only execute commands, you'll be using
javascript for almost everything except most basic tasks, and those work
remotely, via web & ssh.

Regards,
Michael
