Run Shell Commands via HTML on a client machine
Hi guys, so, I have a server running an sqlite database which is accessed by many client machines working as hardware testers, whenever something fails and needs to be replaced the operator would have to enter the Serial Number of the part being replaced as well as some other data. and additionally, i would like to store some log files from the tester into this database, extracting this logfiles is not easy as it would involve typing long commands on a terminal by people who know nothing about linux. and i preffer not having them play with commands because it would complicate things.
Is there a way that i can just have some button in the server's webpage that executes a set of commands on the client side to grab these files and put them in a tarball so the operator only has to attach them like an email attachment for the database to store them?
Kind of like this one, but the script would be executed on the client side:

tmserver
tmserver(1) Translate Toolkit 1.3.0 tmserver(1)
NAME
tmserver - a Translation Memory server,
SYNOPSIS
tmserver --bind=HOSTNAME --port=PORT [--tmdb=TMDBFILE] [--import-translation-file=TMFILE [--import-source-lang=SOURCE_LANG] [--import-tar-
get-lang=TARGET_LANG]]
Where TMDBFILE is the sqlite database file containing tmdb translation memory data, if not specified a new temporary database is created,
and TMFILE is a translation file (po, xliff, etc.) that should be imported into the database (mostly useful when no tmdb file is speci-
fied).
DESCRIPTION
tmserver is a Translation Memory service that can be queried via HTTP using a simple REST like URL/http and data is exchanged between
server and client encoded in JSON.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
show this help message and exit
-d TMDBFILE, --tmdb=TMDBFILE
translation memory database
-f TMFILES, --import-translation-file=TMFILE
translation file to import into the database
-t TARGET_LANG, --import-target-lang=TARGET_LANG
target language of translation files
-s SOURCE_LANG, --import-source-lang=SOURCE_LANG
source language of translation files
-b BIND, --bind=HOSTNAME
address to bind server to
-p PORT, --port=PORT
port to listen on
EXAMPLE
The easiest way to run the server for testing is to pass it a large translation file (maybe generated by pocompendium) to create a tmdb
database on the fly.
tmserver -b localhost -p 8080 -f compendium.po -s en_US -t ar
The server can be queried using a webbrowser. The url would be http://HOST:PORT/tmserver/SOURCE_LANG/TARGET_LANG/unit/STRING
So to see suggestions for "open file" try the url http://localhost:8080/tmserver/en_US/ar/unit/open+file
