Run Script

[rivetopia]

Is it possible to run a script on its own (outside of a find) and have the script results returned?

I haven't actually used the script functionality in my day-to-day, so I'm not 100% sure what filemaker will return, but I can take a look this week.

Could you give a simplified example of what you'd like to do? Particularly an example of the script you'd be running in filemaker and what you'd like it to return. Just to help me with building this feature out. :)

regarding issue : I meant to post it under laravel-fluent-fm let me know if I should open it up there instead.

Last line of my scripts are typically an Exit Script step, with a json object in the text result.
... Exit Script [ Text Result: $myjson ]

If I call that script via api
https://{{server}}/fmi/data/v1/databases/{{db}}/layouts/{{layout}}/script/{{script}}?script.param={{param}}

The api result will have the Exit Script text in response.scriptResult
{ "response": { "scriptResult": "myjsonString", "scriptError": "0" }, "messages": [ { "code": "0", "message": "OK" } ] }

so the scriptResult is what I am ultimately looking for.

Hope that helps, thanks for having a look.

Either project works, this one is where the guts live, the other is basically just a facade and a service provider.

That actually helps a ton, thank you. Expanding out the script calls will add a lot to this project. I'll try to get to work on this sometime this week.

Not sure if it too late, but running a script on its own is only available on FMS 18+, something like:
if ($this->fmversion < 18) return $this->throwRestError (-1, "This function is not supported in FileMaker 17");

May help if not already implemented.
