MySQL if else script.. :(
hello there,
I am new for shell scripting..
I want to do a automatic scanning for my server.
the list of scanning will appear as:
Code:
?xml version="1.0"?>
<reply>
<seq></seq>
<status>OK</status>
<contents><reports>
<report>
<name>326b263f-2ac8-7060-098b-f313191102cdd499c38233bf968b</name>
<status>running</status><readableName>autoreport</readableName>
<timestamp>1275577493</timestamp>
</report>
<report>
<name>e768378e-1d41-567f-46cb-eb5b18a318b259314bc451053364</name>
<status>running</status><timestamp>1275577619</timestamp>
</report>
</reports>
</contents>

if running and the status will change to complete if the scanning complete.
after the scanning is complete, i need to download the report using this command:
Code:
wget --post-data 'token='$token'&report='$reportuuid' --no-check-certificate \
https://localhost:8834/file/report/download -O -

the problem is I donnot how to download the report if the scanning if complete..
can u get what i mean?
thanks in advance

Is that a file?
Also, do you want to check for the last status tag is set to completed then only wget the file?

Please edit your post and use code tags with selecting the code and press "#" from the toolbar.

Something like this:


Code:
 
sta=`awk -F"[><]" '$0 ~ status { print $3 }'` scanned_File.txt
while true
do
if [ $sta = "running" ]; then
sleep 10
elif [ $sta = "complete" ] ; then
--execute the command you want to 
exit
else
sleep 10
fi
done

Thanks for that.I think it is working...
What if after downloading, I want the other script to automatically run?
Can I do that? I want to scp the downloaded file to other server.

After download and before "exit" execute your script something like this:

Code:
 
elif [ $sta = "complete" ] ; then
--execute the command you want to 
./script_to_do_scp
exit

Code:
#command to list active scan (complete or still running)
wget --no-check-certificate --post-data 'token='$token'' https://localhost:8834/report/list -O -

sta=`awk -F"[><]" '$0 ~ status { print $3 }'` ipaddr.txt
while true
do
if [ $sta = "running" ]; then
sleep 10
elif [ $sta = "complete" ] ; then
#command to download report
wget --no-check-certificate --post-data 'token='$token'&report='$uuid'' https://localhost:8834/file/report/download -O - >> /home/nessus/Desktop/targetScanned.txt
#./script_to_do_scp
exit
else
sleep 10
fi
done

why when I run this script but targetScanned.txt (which I assigned to the filename that is downloaded file name) did not appeared at my desktop?
