Get info from /proc/uptime

[woffer]

Anyone know the formula for transforming the info in /proc/uptime to weeks days hours mins and secs (want it to say the uptime nice to the channel on when triggered. like 1week 2days 34min and so on .. not bot uptime .. but machine uptime) ?

Look through scripts such as netbots.tcl.

There is an example of how to get the uptime information, through which a simple puhelp will help get it to it's destination.

Yea, i've looked there.. but i've only found scripts that gives the bots uptime or the machine uptime in only days.. so far.. will continue to look... =)

I think the first number is the number of seconds the system has been up. I don't know what the second number is.

Getting the time is easy:

Code: Select all

proc get_time {total} {
  set seconds [expr $total % 60]
  set total [expr $total / 60]
  set minutes [expr $total % 60]
  set total [expr $total / 60]
  set hours [expr $total % 24]
  set total [expr $total / 24]
  set days [expr $total % 365]
  set years [expr $total / 365]
  return [list $years $days $hours $minutes $seconds]
}

Thanks... but hehe
I found a better way.

proc get_time {} {
set total2 [lindex[exec /usr/bin/cat /proc/uptime] 0]
set total [lindex [split $total2 .] 0]
return [duration $total]
}
