[Package Request] expect about spksrc HOT 7 CLOSED

I am thrilled!
It works after changing from "#!/bin/bash" to "#!/bin/sh" in the script.
THANKS

from spksrc.

@digi74 what do you need expect for?
AFAICS expect requires tcl and is hard to cross compile.

Thanks for asking!
A backup script that connects to switches via telnet and pulls a configuration backup. Unfortunately these devices do not support ssh.
I thought it might be easy, not in this case, no problem

Don't give up so fast, I have done some progress, I tend to include expect in the synocli-misc package.

EDIT:
Everything builds successfully, except the sample scripts (those fail to create since the cross compiled tclsh is not executable).
But I think we do not need those scripts in the package (those are: timed-run timed-read ftp-rfc autopasswd lpunlock weather passmass rftp kibitz rlogin-cwd xpstat tkpasswd dislocate xkibitz tknewsbiff unbuffer mkpasswd cryptdir decryptdir autoexpect multixterm)

I think you really don't need the examples.
an example of my telnet part of the script:

`
expect - <<EOF
set timeout 10
spawn ssh -l$username "$hostname"
expect "password"
send $password
send "\r"
expect "continue"
send "\r"
expect "#"
send "copy startup-config tftp fs1 $tftpfolder/$filename pc\r"
sleep 3

send "exit\r"
expect "#"
send "exit\r"
expect ">"
send "quit\r"
expect "log out"
send "y"

EOF
`

@digi74 you can download the synocli-misc package created by github build action
https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc/actions/runs/9847463175

you need to extract the spk file from the artifacts-zip-file for the arch of you model, then you can manually install the spk File in the DSM package center.

@digi74 thanks for the feedback.

Indeed, the example scripts use /bin/sh too

#!/bin/sh
# -*- tcl -*-
# The next line is executed by /bin/sh, but not tcl \
exec tclsh "$0" ${1+"$@"}

package require Expect
