  1. Better support for local installers.

    in Feature requests

    Posted · Edited by Tomorrow

    Much like normal apps exept i don't enter the download URL.Just fill out the save location,name row and optionally text based variable for version plus any setup commands.

     

    Naturally i get the warning every time saving this profile that i have not entered a URL for download.Almost wish there was a checkbox in advanced settings to turn this check off.

  2. Better support for local installers.

    in Feature requests

    I suppose many have some old apps that can't be downloaded from anywhere anymore but you keep them on your pc and you'd like to use Ketarin to install those when nessesary.Here you'll run into a problem.Ketarin always complains that it can't find the file specified despite the fact the the given path is correct when you try to install any of these.

     

    These apps are generally not shared either because they are local but i would really like for a better support of these.I know installing apps is more of a secondary function of Ketarin and it's not really meant for local apps but i like the idea of a central installer to control all my installer packages be they downloadables or local.

  3. Send e-mail when errors occur

    in Feature requests

    Posted

    Kinda funny actually getting a mail about something that happens on your own computer, don't you think so? :P

    Not sure if this is the best way.Perhaps making errors pop up if /silent /notify flags are used in a task to run ketarin?

     

    For a remote machine i would totally understand tho.

  7. No changes are passed to the online database.

    in Bugs

    Posted

    Another user notified me that an app that i claimed i updated is not available in online database.

    So i checked and re-checked.Everything ok on my end.He too checked and indeed it seems no changes to app profiles are passed along.

     

    Can anyone else confirm?

    Check an app you know you updated and see if the online database holds the same version.

     

    Either way loooks like anothor bug to me.Sometimes it seems the online database is the buggiest component and Ketarin itself is rock solid compared to that :D

  8. Involuntary Uninstall of MalWareBytes software

    in Bugs

    Posted

    Im not sure about loss of functionality but i know that some programs lose their shortcuts after i run CCleaner post-install.

    These shortcuts are problably created in places where CCleaner looks and deletes stuff.By default this should never be the case.Would not be suprised if the shortcuts are created at %temp% :P

     

    So defenetly program autors fault.Tho im unsure if your issue is the same or different.My program that lose shortcuts have not displayed any loss in functionality.

  10. Shawn's Microsoft template: revised 2011-07-08

    in Templates

    Posted

    Well it looks like you have to re-do part of your template Shawn.

    Microsoft has been rolling out a new desing for the past few weeks already so {sdownload} is broken in the current template.

    Gotta love redesings eh? :D

     

    Honestly i don't know whose bright idea it is to do a redesing of a webpage right before or even in the middle of the vacation period.You'd think the designers are slipping margaritas on a white sand beach somewhere near indian ocean but noo - they're busy causing havoc and general mayhem by redesigning whole interfaces :P

    First Microsoft and now Google too...

  11. 1.6.1b1 crashing when editing application variables

    in Bugs

    Posted · Edited by Tomorrow

    It's because of this: https://ketarin.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=5722#p5722

    Temporary workaround is to remove checkmark in Edit - Advanced - Share this application with others.

    This should allow saving for the time being until the core problem is fixed.

     

    You can also create a new custom column in File - Settings that displays what apps are you sharing with others:

    ColumnName

    {property:ShareApplication}

     

    Sould make it easy to add checkmarks for re-share in app profiles once the database comes back up again.

  14. "Run selection" in command context menu

    in Feature requests

    Posted

    Very often when i need to test a particular commandline to see how it works, i have to manually remove parts of the command to run only the part i want.

     

    For example:

    "{file}" /silent /desktop=0 /thumbs=0 /group=0 /allusers=0 /assoc=1 /assocallusers /ini="C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView\Plugins\Riot-plugin.exe"

    Let's assume i know for sure that the second line works.So in order to run only the first line i have to cut the second line.Then run the first line and then paste the second line back.

     

    So instead a new feature would be to select the text/line you need and open the context menu and select Run selection.

    This would spare us from the tedious cut-paste routine.

     

    I suppose one could create a snippet but it's impossibe to foresee and create snippets for every concievable command out there.

  21. Regex Request Thread

    in General discussion

    Posted

    I was thinking it would be nice to have a thread where those who don't know how to use regex, could ask those who can for solutions.

    First a few rules i think.Always post the website and the string you're after.For example:

     

    Website: www.example.com

    Capture: version

    This should represent the exact text you're trying to get.For example 1.42 or www.example.com/subpage

    Being specific would minimize any further questions.

     

    or

     

    Website: www.example.com

    Capture: everything between [version][/version]

    This should be used if you want to capture text between certain HTML tags.Useful if the text between them is long.

     

    ---------------------------------------------

     

    This should minimize extra questions and keep the topic clean.

    Obviously users can submit multiple answers to a question and several users can answer the same question (unless you want to impose a rule that a question is considered answered with first correct code that the question asker confirms as working.This would make the topic cleaner.)

    Each question should be submitted to it's own post.Please do not edit your existing post to ask a new question!

  23. Need some help capturing and appending changelogs to a file.[SOLVED]

    in General discussion

    Posted

    You're welcome!

    I have a request regarding your changelog variable. If possible, can you please share your final regex for the changelog variable of Fraps?

    Unfortunately i don't use regex as im not experienced enough to capture the changelog with it.I can do some very basic stuff but this over my head.So only start/end currently.

     

    I ran into the < and > chars.Nasty buggers.I got rid of them but the html code letters they hold still stays.For example:

    AC3 decoding bug fixed (Issue 1)lili Channel order bug fixed (issue 43)lili Remote control using messageslili Write version number to the registry on install (issue 17)lili Command line interface for AC3Config utility (run ac3config ? for help)lili Swedish translation added (thanks to Niclas Burgren)lili French language updated (thanks to Philippe AGUESSE)

    ----------------------------------------------------

    the "lili" is actually </li><li> before each changelog line but i cant really replace letters L and I with nothing as it would render the whole text unreadable.Also it's a bit of a mess as all lines are after eachother.I would really like this:

    AC3 decoding bug fixed (Issue 1)

    Channel order bug fixed (issue 43)

    Remote control using messages

    Write version number to the registry on install (issue 17)

    Command line interface for AC3Config utility (run ac3config ? for help)

    Swedish translation added (thanks to Niclas Burgren)

    French language updated (thanks to Philippe AGUESSE)

    ----------------------------------------------------

     

    I suppose saving as a HTML file would solve this problem and when that html is opened in browser is see correct formatting and would have no need to replace these HTML chars.I'll have to test it out.

     

    Currently this is my "after updating all applications" line:

    "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Notepad++\notepad++.exe" -alwaysOnTop -ro -n9999 "{Apps x86p}\Ketarin\CHANGELOG.txt"

    -alwaysOnTop - kinda says it all.

    -ro - read only so i wont accidently delete something there.

    -n99999 - there is no command line switch for N++ to jump to the last line so setting ridiciously high number does the trick.Let's just say i don't want to jump to the first line of a long appended file and having to manually scroll all the way to the bottom where the newest entries are.

     

    And these are the write to changelog lines:

    echo {changelog:regexreplace:[\n|\r\</>]:}>>"{Apps x86p}\Ketarin\CHANGELOG.txt"

    echo ---------------------------------------------------->>"{Apps x86p}\Ketarin\CHANGELOG.txt"

    The long --------------------------------------- line is for separation to make the log a bit more readable and to separate different changelogs.

  25. Need some help capturing and appending changelogs to a file.[SOLVED]

    in General discussion

    Posted · Edited by Tomorrow

    Basicly i've had this idea for some time already and now im starting to search if there is a way to accomplish this.

    The whole idea would be to create a variable that captures the changelog (that's the easy part) and then appending that variable content to a global changelog file.

     

    I tried this and it works in windows commandline:

    echo variable_captured_text >> "changelog location"

     

    But this does not work in ketarin:

    echo {changelog} >> "changelog location"

     

    It seems that it's trying to execute every command separately:

    'Fraps' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

    '-' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

    operable program or batch file.

     

    Im not sure.Perhaps i've overlooked something simple here but sorry.It's 30+ degrees heat here today and that's defenetly too much for a northern european persons braing to function correctly :P
