|
|
| script | string | Filename of script to run. |
|
|||

|
|||

number

|
## Remarks
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
RAM cost: 1 GB
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Run a script as a separate process. This function can only be used to run scripts located on the current server (the server running the script that calls this function). Requires a significant amount of RAM to run this command.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If the script was successfully started, then this functions returns the PID of that script. Otherwise, it returns 0.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PID stands for Process ID. The PID is a unique identifier for each script. The PID will always be a positive integer.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Running this function with a numThreads argument of 0 or less will cause a runtime error.
|
|||

## Example 1
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```ts
|
|||
|
|
// NS1:
|
|||
|
|
//The simplest way to use the run command is to call it with just the script name. The following example will run ‘foo.script’ single-threaded with no arguments:
|
|||
|
|
run("foo.script");
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
//The following example will run ‘foo.script’ but with 5 threads instead of single-threaded:
|
|||
|
|
run("foo.script", 5);
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
//This next example will run ‘foo.script’ single-threaded, and will pass the string ‘foodnstuff’ into the script as an argument:
|
|||
|
|
run("foo.script", 1, 'foodnstuff');
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Example 2
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```ts
|
|||
|
|
// NS2:
|
|||
|
|
//The simplest way to use the run command is to call it with just the script name. The following example will run ‘foo.script’ single-threaded with no arguments:
|
|||
|
|
ns.run("foo.script");
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
//The following example will run ‘foo.script’ but with 5 threads instead of single-threaded:
|
|||
|
|
ns.run("foo.script", 5);
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
//This next example will run ‘foo.script’ single-threaded, and will pass the string ‘foodnstuff’ into the script as an argument:
|
|||
|
|
ns.run("foo.script", 1, 'foodnstuff');
|
|||
|
|
```
