Automate Custom Mirth Installation

[VVV]

Hello ,

I'm interesting , is any possibility to automate custom Mirth installation , i.e. :

1. include additional db drivers ( with appropriate modification of dbdrivers.xml )
2. include "predeployed" Channels

so that after first start Mith would have the "predeployed" Channels just "Started" ?


And any more question :
What allows option appeared at installation :
"Create installation scriptto repeat this installation ?"
What kind of repeat is intended ?

Thank you for resnonse

You can do both of these:

1. Copy conf/dbdrivers.xml and lib/custom to each directory.
2. Use shell to script import and deploy commands after installation is complete.

Re:Automate Custom Mirth Installation

Thank you very much !

correct me if i wrong : p.1 we do after install is complete executing some cmd-file ?

and also , could you shortly explain how to do that :
p.2 "Use shell to script import and deploy commands after installation is complete."

(Perhaps I missed something , I don't seen so far any notes in documentation about such functionality )

Re:Automate Custom Mirth Installation

Sorry for my inconvenience
i found Shell.bat in installation dir
and its short description in readme.txt (http://www.mirthproject.org/svn/bran...ocs/README.txt)
also i guess "help" command in shell

for other newbies like me :
shell allows you to connect to a running Mirth server through a command line interface and execute some useful commands :
================================================== =====================================
$help
Available Commands:
status
Returns status of deployed channels
start
Starts all Channels
stop
Stops all Channels
pause
Pauses all Channels
resume
Resumes all Channels
deploy {timeout}
Deploys all Channels with optional timeout (in seconds)
import "path"
Imports channel specified by <path>
export id|"name"|* "path"
Exports the specified channel to <path>
importcfg "path"
Imports configuration specified by <path>
exportcfg "path"
Exports the configuration to <path>
channel start|stop|pause|resume|stats id|"name"|*

channel remove|enable|disable id|"name"|*

channel list

clear

resetstats
Removes all stats from all Channels
dump stats|events "path"
Dumps stats or events to specified file
user list

user remove id|username

user changepw id|username "newpassword"

quit

================================================== ===================================

one thing remains still unknown to me :
is there a way to run shell.bat with parameter(s) to get it a list of commands for execution.
for example , a batch of commans : stop channels , import new channel , deploy it.

http://www.mirthproject.org/svn/bran...ols/Shell.java

Re:Automate Custom Mirth Installation

small correction :
switch could be placed into start.bat
