.wget fot the wget command !?

Zygomaticum · Post by **Zygomaticum** » Thu Dec 27, 2001 2:22 pm

Hi.

I got a problem (again

).
I'm making a .wget <url> command to use the linux command wget <url>.

My problem with doing this:
if i let wget download it without any dirchange, the file comes into /home/zygo/eggdrop (my eggdrop dir), but i want it in /home/zygo/temp
if i do it like this:
proc <name> {blablabla}{
set http [lindex $arg 0]
cd /home/zygo/temp
exec wget $http
}
it works, i get the file in the /home/zygo/temp dir, but when i rehash my eggdrop it quits with error: Config file not founded. (this error is because of the dirchange.)
even when i add the command
cd /home/zygo/eggdrop
or
cd /home/zygo/eggdrop/scripts
after the exec ... command, i still get the same error when rehashing.

Now i'm trying to do this by logging in again to the shell with ssh, but i get errors when my eggdrop has to enter the pass.
script i use for ssh loging in atm:

proc pub_wget {nick uhost hand chan arg} {
global sship sshlogin sshpass
set http [lindex $arg 0]
set sshclient [exec which ssh]
set ssh [open "|$sshclient -l $sshlogin $sship" w]
puts $ssh "$sshpass"
puts $ssh "cd /home/zygo/temp"
puts $ssh "wget $http"
putserv "NOTICE $nick :File $http successfully put in /home/zygo/temp."
puts $ssh "exit"
close $ssh
}

error i get:
[17:13] Userfile loaded, unpacking...
zygo@80.56.131.50's password:
zygo@80.56.131.50's password:
zygo@80.56.131.50's password:
[17:13] TCL error [pub_wget]: Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (publickey,password).

i still get this error when changing the line:
puts $ssh "$sshpass"
into:
puts $ssh $sshpass
and into:
puts $ssh "<passtypedout>"

can someone help me?

Thanx in advance, Zygo.

i'm too tired to figure out whats wrong, but be warned, the way you're writing it is a brilliant way for someone to take full control of your shell on your box that you're sshing to via shell meta characters.

Here's an idea.. instead of doing "cd /home/blah/temp" why don't you use the --output-document=FILE option for wget? Or, for even less of a change, use the --directory-prefix=PREFIX option:

wget --output-document=/home/baa/temp/sheep.zip someurl

wget --directory-prefix=/home/baa/temp someurl

this commands only works if you got the flag +F
the only one with that flag is me.

and stdragon, i'm trying it out now, didn't find those arguments with the wget -help command, already searched for something like this (but couldn't find it)

thx for the help guys

(i'm just learning tcl, this is my 3rd day

, the most things i'm getting from other tcl files, but this thing i couldn't find, nor something like this)

PS: if someone got a good link for a help page or howto or guide or whatever whould be very nice

Greejtz, Zygo.

Well, it is in the -help output from my wget http://www.ppslim.ukshells.co.uk/netbots/wget.help

The problem with your second mwthod of doing it, is that eggdrop re-routes the stdin, stdout and stderr to /dev/null, as 100% closure of them, makes Tcl a little nuts

Hopefully you're the only one with +m too, because a +m user can add +F to anyone unless you have a proc that filters the chattr command to prevent it.

DoH

i'm not that stupid

It's just a private bot, unlinked, 1 user with +m and +n, and a few others with flags +h an +A or +B for some commands they're allowed to use.

LoL

that's dumb

exec wget <whatever> is bad also because it will cause your bot to block while the file is downloading -- if you download a bigger file your bot will begin to ping out from irc and such ..

a better way would be to exec wget <whatever> & but then you can't tell when the file is done or not ..

Not sure what would be a really good way

use an seperate egg to exec the wget cmd

(an egg that only does something on the .wget trigger)

Try the 'open' command, and then use a fileevent to see when the command is done.

Code: Select all

proc reader {fp} {
  gets $fp text
  # You can parse the $text var to get status information
  if {[eof $fp]} {
    # The program exited.
    close $fp
  }
}
set fp [open "|wget baa"]
fileevent $fp readable [list reader $fp]
