Component: console

6.28 Stable 2015-Apr-15 (10 years ago)

• fixed "in" operator in console;
• make "/system package update print" work again.

6.27 Stable 2015-Feb-11 (11 years ago)

• added 'comment' parameter for '/system script'

6.26 Stable 2015-Feb-03 (11 years ago)

• fixed some missing export entries;

6.19 Stable 2014-Aug-26 (11 years ago)

• added unary operator 'any' that evaluates to true if argument is not null or nothing value;

6.18 Stable 2014-Aug-01 (11 years ago)

• print command does not try to reuse item numbers assigned by previous invocations of 'print' when doing 'print where' or 'print follow', items are numbered consecutively starting from '0'.
• fix compact export of some partially modified configuration values;
• show internal numbers in the form returned by 'find' (like *9A0F) instead of "(unknown)" when configuration refers to deleted items. This change also applies to API.
• values of type 'nil' were returning 'nil' as result of most operations. Now it compares less than all values except 'nil' and 'nothing', and compares inequal to all values except 'nil'. This was changed to make 'print where' and 'find where' more useful. An example. Previously the following command /ip route print where routing-mark!=nosuch Would not print routes that had no value for 'routing-mark' set, because (nil != "nosuch") was equal to nil. Now it evaluates to 'true', and this command will also print all routes that have no 'routing-mark' value set.
• when exporting to file, use name ending in '.in_progress', and rename when export finishes;

6.13 Stable 2014-May-15 (11 years ago)

• comments are now accepted where new command can start, that is, where '/' or ':' characters can be used to start new command, e.g. /interface { # comment until the end of the line print }

6.11 Stable 2014-Mar-20 (11 years ago)

• no longer required to supply value of '/routing bgp instance vrf' property 'instance' for 'add' command;

6.6 Stable 2013-Nov-07 (12 years ago)

• :foreach command can iterate over keys and values in an array, by specifying two counter variables, e.g.: :foreach k,v in=[/system clock get] do={:put "$k is $v"};

6.5 Stable 2013-Oct-16 (12 years ago)

• exported physical interface configuration uses 'default-name' instead of item number to match relevant interface;
• report all constituent errors for parameters with multiple alternative value types;
• ':return' does not trigger 'on-error=' action of ':do' command;

6.4 Stable 2013-Sep-12 (12 years ago)

• make newly added item names always immediately available;

6.3 Stable 2013-Sep-03 (12 years ago)

• added '/console clear-history' command that clears command-line history for all users, requires 'policy' policy;
• fixed issue with local variables having non-empty value before first assignment;
• fixed command ":global name" without second argument to not create or change global variable "name", only effect is to make "name" refer to global variable.
• fixed passing local variables as argument to function;

6.2 Stable 2013-Aug-02 (12 years ago)

• added "on-error" argument to ':do' command that is executed if command raises error;
• added new ':return' command that interrupts execution of script and passes argument as return value if script was called as function;
• resolved issue with 'from-pool' propery in '/ipv6 address';
• array value syntax in expressions '{1;2;3;4}' now can specify values with word keys as '{a=1;b=2}';
• added 'verbose' argument to '/import' command that enables line-by-line script import. By default import whole script at once and don't print it, as it was in version 6.0;
• ':global', ':local' and ':set' commands have new parameter 'do' that allows assigning block of commands to the variable;
• global variables now are common to all users and are available to all users with at least "read,write,test,policy" policy;
• fixed parameter passing to scripts. Script parameters can be accessed without declaring them with ':local' and ':global' commands. For backwards compatibility global variables are first looked up in script parametrs;
• '$var 1 2 a="a" b="b"' syntax for passing parameters to commands stored in a variable. Parameters are accessed as '$1' '$2' '$a' '$b';

6.1 Stable 2013-Jun-12 (12 years ago)

• '/import' prints each command that is executed;
• 'import' has new argument 'from-line' that starts executing commands after specified line;

6.0 Stable 2013-May-17 (12 years ago)
