Before using any of the scripts, you need to create a user that will
be only used for driving the automation scripts of ZendTo. Don't use
a real user's account, create one just for the purpose.<br>
Put that username in the 'automationUsers' setting in
preferences.php.<br>
<br>
For this example, let's set a few things:<br>
- The automation user is going to have the username "<tt>robot</tt>"
with a password of "<tt>machines</tt>".<br>
- The claimID and passcode of the drop-off will be "<tt>aaaClaimIDaaa</tt>"
and "<tt>bbbPasscodebbb</tt>".<br>
- The address of your ZendTo site will be "<tt><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://your-zendto-site.com/">https://your-zendto-site.com/</a></tt>".
The site address always goes at the very end of the command, after
all the other options.<br>
<br>
To see the command-line usage:<br>
<tt> /opt/zendto/bin/autopickup --help</tt><br>
<br>
Fetch information about the drop-off, without downloading anything:<br>
<tt> /opt/zendto/bin/autopickup --username "robot" --password
"machines" --claimid "aaaClaimIDaaa" --passcode "bbbPasscodebbb"
--list --nofiles <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://your-zendto-site.com/">https://your-zendto-site.com/</a></tt><br>
<br>
Fetch all the files in the drop-off to the current directory,
verifying their checksums, and logging that they were picked up by
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:user@yourdomain.com">"user@yourdomain.com"</a>:<br>
<tt> /opt/zendto/bin/autopickup --username "robot" --password
"machines" --claimid "aaaClaimIDaaa" --passcode "bbbPasscodebbb"
--checksum --pickedupby <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:user@yourdomain.com">"user@yourdomain.com"</a></tt><tt>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://your-zendto-site.com/">https://your-zendto-site.com/</a></tt><br>
<br>
Fetch all the files in the drop-off to the directory
"/var/tmp/downloads", not bothering with checksums or logging who
did it:<br>
<tt> /opt/zendto/bin/autopickup --username "robot" --password
"machines" --claimid "aaaClaimIDaaa" --passcode "bbbPasscodebbb"
--output "/var/tmp/downloads"</tt><tt>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://your-zendto-site.com/">https://your-zendto-site.com/</a></tt><br>
<br>
The output of the "--list --nofiles" command above will give you a
unique "fileid" number for each of the files in the drop-off. So
let's download file number 123, verify its checksum and save it to
the file "~/Downloads/my-picked-up-file":<br>
<tt> /opt/zendto/bin/autopickup --username "robot" --password
"machines" --claimid "aaaClaimIDaaa" --passcode "bbbPasscodebbb"
--file 123 --checksum --output "~/Downloads/my-picked-up-file"</tt><tt>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://your-zendto-site.com/">https://your-zendto-site.com/</a></tt><br>
<br>
If you are using a locally-signed SSL certificate on your ZendTo
server, you may need to add the option<br>
<tt> --insecure</tt><br>
to all of the above examples.<br>
<br>
To see the "curl" command it creates, which is what does all the
work, but not actually run anything, add the option<br>
<tt> --debug</tt><br>
to any of the above examples.<br>
<br>
Does that help?<br>
<br>
The point of me using "curl" is that all the script really does is
create all the parameters for an HTTP POST request to your ZendTo
server, and then pull out the JSON results from the right header in
the returned data. The "<tt>--debug</tt>" option will help you
understand what it's doing.<br>
<br>
Once you have played with it a bit, take a look how the script works
(90% is just parsing the command-line!) and you will see how you
could use a .Net http request to achieve the same result with your
own code running on a Windows server.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Jules.<br>

<p>Is anyone using the AutoPickUp Script? Any documentation on
the use of the script or examples. Trying to move the files
uploaded from the ZendTo server to a Windows server.<br>
</p>
