I will be muxing 100's of (.mkv)'s via mkvmerge command line (.bat) file and would like to know if it's possible to have all occurrences of the words warning and error highlighted in yellow(warning) and red(error) and or change the text color.
I tried this "Setting Text Color in a Batch File" but the outcome is not specific to what I'm trying to accomplish.
My batch as it is:
#echo off
cls
md output
for %%a in (*.mkv) do (
"mkvmerge" --track-name -1:"" --no-attachments --no-track-tags --no-global-tags --disable-track-statistics-tags --display-dimensions "0:1280x720" --language -1:eng --default-track -1:yes --compression -1:none --no-chapters -o output/"%%~na.mkv" -a 1 -d 0 -S "%%~na.mkv" --track-order 0:0,0:1 --language 0:eng --stracks 0 "%%~na.idx"
)
This gave me the results I was looking for...
MTEE Mtee commandline utility
#echo off
md output
md results
for %%a in (*.mkv) do (
"mkvmerge" --track-name -1:"" --no-attachments --no-track-tags --no-global-tags --disable-track-statistics-tags --display-dimensions "0:1280x720" --language -1:eng --default-track -1:yes --compression -1:none --no-chapters -o output/"%%~na.mkv" -a 1 -d 0 -S "%%~na.mkv" --track-order 0:0,0:1 --language 0:eng --stracks 0 "%%~na.idx" 2>&1 | mtee/+ results\"%%~na.txt"
)
cls
findstr /a:04 Error "results\*.txt"
findstr /a:0E Warning "results\*.txt"
echo.
powershell -c (New-Object Media.SoundPlayer "C:\Windows\Media\notify.wav").PlaySync();
echo The process is complete.

I tried many examples online, but was not able to make it work. I am new to this so please forgive my primitive question.
say I have this:
curl "www.google.com" -o /dev/null -s -w "%{http_code}\n"
when running this in a cmd window, it returns the response code.
200
which is as expected.
I would like to do something like this in a batch script, but also use the output of the curl command to set a variable.
All examples I found online propose:
set res = $(curl "www.google.com" -o /dev/null -s -w "%{http_code}\n")
echo %res%
pause
or like this
FOR /F "tokens=* USEBACKQ" %%F IN (`curl www.google.com -o /dev/null -s -w "%{http_code}\n"`) DO ( SET var=%%F )
ECHO %var%
pause
both did not work, my batch script closes immediately.
Any feedback or help is highly appreciated
thank you.
Thanks to #Compo, here is the formatted answer for other's benefit.
#echo off
For /F %%G In ('%__AppDir__%curl.exe -s -o NUL "www.google.com" -w "%%{http_code}\n"') Do Set "response=%%G"
echo response code is %response%
IF %response% == 200 (
ECHO was able to ping google
) ELSE (
ECHO unable to ping google
)
pause
As he has mentionned above #Compo in his comment :
"To get the result of the command as a variable at the Command Prompt, you'd use For /F"
#echo off
Title Store curl command output in a variable in batch script
Set "MyCommand=curl "www.google.com" -o NUL -s -w "%%{http_code}""
#for /f %%R in ('%MyCommand%') do ( Set VAR=%%R )
echo %VAR%
pause
Based upon your own answer code, there's no need to use a for-loop to get the result saved to a variable, and then compare that variable value with a known value. You can pipe the result through findstr to see if it matches your known value instead.
Example batch-file:
#%__AppDir__%curl.exe -s -o NUL "www.google.com" -w "%%{http_code}" ^
| %__AppDir__%findstr.exe /X "200" 1> NUL && (Echo Ping Succeeded
) || Echo Ping Failed
#Pause
It is only really one line, split for readability, so you could do it line this in cmd:
%__AppDir__%curl.exe -s -o NUL "www.google.com" -w "%{http_code}" | %__AppDir__%findstr.exe /X "200" 1> NUL && (Echo Ping Succeeded) || Echo Ping Failed
Or like this as a batch-file:
#(%__AppDir__%curl.exe -s -o NUL "www.google.com" -w "%%{http_code}" | %__AppDir__%findstr.exe /X "200" 1> NUL && (Echo Ping Succeeded) || Echo Ping Failed) & Pause
Other answers are good, but I would not use CURL to just test if we can reach a site:
#echo off
ping google.com -n 1 >nul 2>&1
if %errorlevel% equ 1 (
echo EHHH..NO Google is not down, we are
) else (
echo HURRAH MAN We are OK
)
im trying to create a batch file that goes thorugh each text file in a folder and looks for specific words such as "msg" "file" "size" in each line. If those words are found then it sends and me an email.
Im using SQL server to send the email, and im calling the email stored procedure from my batch file like this:
set MYDB= yourDBname
set MYUSER=youruser
set MYPASSWORD=yourpassword
set MYSERVER=yourservername
sqlcmd -S %MYSERVER% -d %MYDB% -U %MYUSER% -P %MYPASSWORD% -h -1 -s "," -W -Q "exec yourstoredprocedure"
I just need help writing the script which checks for specific words in each line in each .txt file
Just give a try for this batch file :
#echo off
Title Search String into text files
Set "ROOT=%~dp0"
set "String2Search=msg size file"
For %%a in (%String2Search%) do (
FOR /f "delims=" %%f IN ('dir /b /s "%ROOT%\*.txt"') DO (
(find /I "%%a" "%%f" >nul 2>&1) && ( Call :FoundString "%%a" "%%f" ) || ( Call :NoFound "%%a" "%%f" )
)
)
pause & exit
::*************
:FoundString
echo found %1 on file %2
goto :eof
::*************
:NoFound
echo no string like %1 found on file %2
goto :eof
::*************
Few suggestions as i cannot comment.I had done a project few years back and i had to do search files with a particular extension and read them to find particular words and do something with them.I remember few things only.I hope it helps you.
To find all txt files:
find /home/user/Downloads/etc -name '*txt'
To read a whole file and search for "msg" "file" "size":
while read -r LINE
do
grep -i "msg" | grep -i "file" | grep -i "size"
to check all in one line
Or you can do it executing one by one without "pipelining".
P.S I don't have linux installed otherwise I would have checked before posting.Sorry if not correct.
This should do the job:
#ECHO OFF
CD C:\wherever\your\.txt\files\are\at
FOR /R %%G IN ("*.txt") DO (FINDSTR /I /C:"msg" /C:"file" /C:"size" "%%G" >nul && GOTO match_found)
GOTO no_match
:match_found
ECHO Match found^!
set MYDB= yourDBname
set MYUSER=youruser
set MYPASSWORD=yourpassword
set MYSERVER=yourservername
sqlcmd -S %MYSERVER% -d %MYDB% -U %MYUSER% -P %MYPASSWORD% -h -1 -s "," -W -Q "exec yourstoredprocedure"
:no_match
ECHO No match found^!
PAUSE
If the batch file is in the same folder as the .txt files you can delete the CD line.
If the search should be case-sensitive remove the /I option.
To satisfy your question as asked, this should suffice:
#Echo Off
FindStr /IR "\<msg\> \<file\> \<size\>" "C:\Users\NT-Hero\*.txt">Nul||Exit /B
Rem Your 'match found' commands here
If you wanted to also search in sub-directories change the FindStr options to /SIR. (See FindStr /? for more options).
I have a very simple batch file that runs a SQL query file and copies the results to a printer. The problem is it prints even if the results of the query is 0 rows. How can I only print if there is data?
cd stock
sqlcmd -i testquery.sql -S localhost -U User -P password -o testresults.txt
copy testresults.txt \\printserver\share
sqlcmd -i ems_update.sql -S localhost -U User -P password
del c:\stock\testresults.txt
exit
Ok, this is what I have now:
cd c:\stock
sqlcmd -i testquery.sql -S localhost -U User -P password -o testresults.txt
#find /c /i "0 rows" "C:\stock\testresults.txt" > NUL
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 (
pause
) else (
copy c:\stock\testresults.txt \\printserver\share)
pause
sqlcmd -i ems_update.sql -S localhost -U User -P password
I cannot get the copy command to run now. What am I missing??
thanks
Take a file that you know has 0 data.for /f "delims=" %%A in ('type nodata.txt') do set nodata=%%AThenfor /f "delims=" %%A in ('type testresults.txt') do set test_result=%%AThenif not %nodata%==%test_result% copy testresults.txt \printserver\shareThis will only work if the same exact no data file is produced, like no timestamps.or
use find which returns %errorlevel%==1 if it does not find a phrase in file and 0 if it does.
Just an idea - you can check if size of the file is 0. In Bash it would be something like this:
if [ ! -s ./testresults.txt ] ; then
rm ./testresults.txt
# or do something else
else
copy testresults.txt \\printserver\share
fi
Am new to this so hope someone can assist a novice. Cannot locate the answer so far. Essentially I am trying to create a watch folder which picks up new .MXF files, runs a specific command line application and renames the new file with the original filename plus _new.
#echo off
:loop
if exist "C:\Input\*.mxf" (
for %%a in ("C:\Input\*.mxf") do (
C:\BMX\bmxtranswrap -o C:\Output\NEW.mxf -t as11op1a -y 09:59:50:00 --afd 10 --pass-anc all -anc-max 2048 "%%a"
ping -n 5 localhost >nul
del "%%a"
)
)
ping -n 5 localhost >nul
goto :loop
I originally tried using %~n1 command to pass through the name which works in a CMD script I have.
C:\BMX\bmxtranswrap -o C:\Output\%~n1_NEW.mxf -t as11op1a -y 09:59:50:00 --afd 10 --pass-anc all -anc-max 2048 "%%a"
This doesn't work however. If there is a command I am missing to pass through the source filename then please let me know.
Many thanks.
You need to extract the filename without the extension in order to use it as a variable in the new name.
To get the filename you can use:
%%~ni
This should work:
#echo off
if exist "C:\Input\*.mxf" (
FOR %%i IN ("c:\Input\*.mxf") DO (
REM ECHO %%~ni - This is the filename without the extensoion for the new file
C:\BMX\bmxtranswrap -o C:\Output\%%~ni_new.mxf -t as11op1a -y 09:59:50:00 --afd 10 --pass-anc all -anc-max 2048 %%i
ping -n 5 localhost >nul
del %%i
)
)
NOTE:
I've tested the above code without the bmxtranswrap line and the new filenames were displayed as expected: test_new.mxf and test2_new.mxf
I want the program to process an arbitrary number of command-line arguments, but I'm unsure how to implement a for loop to go through multiple shift commands. Also, the program shouldn't close the command prompt window when it ends.
Here is what I have so far:
#echo off
if "%1"=="" goto skip
if "%1"=="-ti" time /t
if "%1"=="-da" date /t
if "%1"=="-c" cls
if "%1"=="-ip" ipconfig
if "%1"=="-d" dir
if "%1"=="-p" path
if "%1"=="-v" ver
if "%1"=="-t" type
if "%1"=="-m" md
exit /b
:skip
echo No arguments!
I'd like to have the following command-line arguments run properly:
C:\>batchfile –d –ti –da –ip –v
C:\>batchfile
C:\>batchfile –d –m CSC3323 –d
C:\>batchfile –d –t batchfile.bat –m CSC3323 –d
Use this code to loop through your arguments in a file called batchfile.bat:
#echo off
echo arguments: "%*"
:loop
if "%~1"=="" goto skip
if "%~1"=="-ti" time /t
if "%~1"=="-da" date /t
if "%~1"=="-c" cls
if "%~1"=="-ip" ipconfig
if "%~1"=="-d" dir
if "%~1"=="-p" path
if "%~1"=="-v" ver
if "%~1"=="-t" type
if "%~1"=="-m" md
shift
goto loop
:skip
echo No arguments!
pause
and call the batchscript like this:
start batchfile.bat -ti -d -ti -da -ip -v
start batchfile.bat
start batchfile.bat -d -m CSC3323 -d
start batchfile.bat -d -t batchfile.bat -m CSC3323 -d
