Non-Interactive Expect Script - Enjoy!

[Jay Simons]

Here is an expect script I wrote to automate sending command to the console. It's rough but it works:

<pre><code>

#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set timeout 10

set cmd [lindex $argv 0]

spawn bash

expect "*#"

send "cd /usr/src/insteon-terminal\r"

expect "*#"

send "./insteon-terminal\r"

expect ">>>*"

send "$cmd\r"

expect ">>>*" {

        after 1000

        send "\r"

}

send "\r"

expect ">>>*"

puts "CMD_OK\r"

send "quit()\r"

expect "*#"

send "exit\r"

expect eof

</code></pre>
