Hi,
I have a system command that performs a ftp download and is used a bunch of different graphs. It looks something like:
day=`date2str(dateadd(today(),${DAY_OFFSET},day),“yyyyMMdd”)`;
if [ -f ${DATAIN_DIR}/${FILE_NAME}_“$day”_Full.zip ]
then
echo “skipping download data-in/${FILE_NAME}_$day_Full.zip exists”;
else
wget -O ${DATAIN_DIR}/${FILE_NAME}_“$day”_Full.zip ${FTP_URL}/${FILE_NAME}_???_Full.zip;
fi
I have all these parameters so I can adapt the script to different graphs just by setting the parameters in the graph or a parameter file. Now I would like to be able to re-use the script itself so that if I change it, I don’t have to edit every graph that uses it. I looked at putting its own file, but I need the variables to get bound and date CTL to run.
Any recommendations about how I might be able to reuse the script? Most components allow some sort of URL for data like this to be read.
Thanks.
