API which enables the execution of external scripts #545

Good idea! Would it be possible to use a standard Sense external reload task (available from 2021 May and later, I believe) with Butler's REST API for starting tasks? That way you could define the call to Python or similar via the external task, then call that task from the load script using Butler's API. Should work..? |

True, but that scenario is also handled by Butler, at least to a fashion.
Butler has a built-in (optional) key-value store.
It's intended for passing parameters between reload tasks, but can just as
well be used to pass parameters between a reload script and some external
process, as long as that external process can do a REST call to pull out
the parameters that the load script pushed into the key-value store.
Example here:

Hello Göran,
It would be grateful if there is an API (similar to the APIs for file system operations delete, move, copy) which enables the load script to execute an external script file (e.g. python script) in standard mode.
BR,
Rumen
