Unfortunately, I haven't used most of the specialty APIs yet, so I'm not intimately familiar with where their documentation might be wrong. I figured some fixes were better than no fixes, and I can always make more fixes later. Fixes #1023.

run() Netscript Function
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: run(script[, numThreads=1[, args...]])
|
|
|
|
:RAM cost: 1 GB
|
|
:param string script: Filename of script to run
|
|
:param number numThreads: Optional thread count for new script. Set to 1 by
|
|
default. Will be rounded to nearest integer.
|
|
:param args...:
|
|
Additional arguments to pass into the new script that is being run. Note
|
|
that if any arguments are being passed into the new script, then the
|
|
second argument ``numThreads`` must be filled in with a value.
|
|
:returns: The process id of the new process or 0 on failure.
|
|
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: Running this function with a ``numThreads`` argument of 0 or
|
|
less will cause a runtime error.
|
|
|
|
The simplest way to use the :doc:`run<run>` command is to call it with just
|
|
the script name. The following example will run ``foo.script``
|
|
single-threaded with no arguments:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
run("foo.script");
|
|
|
|
The following example will run 'foo.script' but with 5 threads instead of
|
|
single-threaded:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
run("foo.script", 1, 'foodnstuff');
