[Script] WGET Script to rescan MediaFolders

[MadEvil]

Hi,

some People want to trigger this more often as you can set in subsonic.

i write a short windows script to trigger this action.

i used a special wget version which can handle self signed certificates if you use SSL.

Code: Select all

:::::::::::::::::::::
:: Rescan Subsonic ::
:::::::::::::::::::::

:: rescan Subsonic MediaFolders
:: edit username/password/serverlink to your need

set username=admin
set password=admin
set serverlink=http://127.0.0.1

:::::::::::::::::::::

set wgetsettings=--spider --no-check-certificate --cookies=on --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies=%temp%\cookie.txt

wget %wgetsettings% --user-agent=Mozilla "%serverlink%/login.view?user=%username%&password=%password%"
wget %wgetsettings% --load-cookies=%temp%\cookie.txt --referer="%serverlink%" "%serverlink%/musicFolderSettings.view?scanNow"


best regards

Any idea how you would add other URL parameters to this?

musicFolderSettings.view?scanNow&u=user&p=pass

I tried setting scanNow=true and scanNow=1 and neither worked. I'm basically trying to call this via an ajax request (MiniSub).

This looks like what I need. I have multiple people adding music to my server and since I upgraded to 4.7 I am getting texts of why their music wasnt loaded.
Could you explain to someone who has zero knowledge how to use scripts on what I need to do to make this work?

Thank you soo much for all of your hard work..both posters above me

Hi there,

i have a better solution for you! You can do this with the Madsonic-Mod REST API

Look at this Thread on the Madsonic-Forum --> http://forum.madsonic.org/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=10#p737

or you use the WGET Script, you only need to replace Username, Password and Server-address.

Best regards
