These scripts are located in the <code>bin</code> and <code>tools</code> directories. This topic describes the interfaces to some of those scripts. All scripts in the <code>bin</code> directory can be called from the CGI (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface">Common Gateway Interface</a>) environment or from the command line. The scripts in the <code>tools</code> directory can only be called from the command line.

<h2 id="CGI_Scripts">  CGI Scripts </h2>
Details on CGI scripts located in the <code>bin</code> directory.
<p></p>
Note that a blank in the 'Default' column means that the parameter
is not required, and has no default. <em>required</em> means the
parameter is required, and has no default. text <em>in italics</em> describes
default behaviour if no value is given.
<p></p>
<h3 id="General_Information">  General Information </h3>
<h4 id="CGI_environment">  CGI environment </h4>
In the CGI environment parameters are passed to the scripts via the URL and URL parameters. Environment variables are also used to determine the user performing the action. If the environment is not set up, the default user is used (usually <code>guest</code>).
<h4 id="Command_45line">  Command-line </h4>
You <strong>must</strong> be have the <code>bin</code> directory on the perl path to run the scripts from the command line. To avoid issues with file permissions, run the scripts as the web server user such as <code>nobody</code> or <code>www</code>.
<p></p>
Parameters are passed on the command line using two possible formats:
<p></p> <ul>
<li> Traditional command line "switch" style format:  <code>-name value</code>,  The "-" prefix for the keyword is required.
</li></ul> 
<pre class="bash">
$ cd /usr/local/foswiki/bin
$ save -topic MyWeb.MyTopic -user admin -action save -text "New text of the topic"
</pre> <ul>
<li> Keyword format: <code>parameter=value</code>.   A "-" prefix is optional.
</li></ul> 
<pre class="bash">
$ cd /usr/local/foswiki/bin
$ save topic=MyWeb.MyTopic user=admin action=save text="New text of the topic"
</pre>
All parameters require a value, even if that is the empty string. Note that parameters passed on the command-line should <strong>not</strong> be URL-encoded.
<p></p>
<h5 id="A_34Authentication_34_in_the_command_line_environment">  "Authentication" in the command line environment </h5>
<p></p>
Unlike the CGI environment, the default user for command line operations is <code>AdminUser</code>.
<p></p> <ul>
<li> The <code>-user</code> parameter is specific to the command line and is not recognized by in the web environment.  It allows a user to be specified without requiring that the password be supplied.  It is <strong>only</strong> active from the command line.
</li> <li> The <code>-username</code> / <code>-password</code> parameters are processed by the authentication system and require the password be authenticated.  Depending upon the authentication implementation, it may or may not be usable in the command line environment.
</li></ul> 
<p></p>
When calling a <code>tools</code> script from the command line, you normally need to be cd'd to the =bin directory e.g.
<pre class="bash">
$ cd bin
$ ../tools/mailnotify -q -nonews -nochanges -Main -System
</pre>
<p></p>
<h4 id="Context">  Context </h4>
<p></p>
Each script sets a Foswiki <code>context</code> to signal to plugins and other components the environment that they are running.  In addition to the per-script context, two additional contexts are optionally set: <ul>
<li> <code>command_line</code> is set if there is no CGI query object available.
</li> <li> <code>static</code> is set by scripts that render static content like PDF or other offline publishing tools
</li></ul> 
<p></p>
A comprehensive list of core context identifiers used by Foswiki is found in the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/System/IfStatements#Context_identifiers.">IfStatements#Context_identifiers.</a>
<p></p>
<h3 id="Common_parameters">  Common parameters </h3>
All the scripts accept a number of common parameters. The first two components of the URL after the script name are taken as the web and the topic, respectively. Standard URL parameters are:

The main difference between invoking this script and using <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/WebChanges">WebChanges</a> is that <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/WebChanges">WebChanges</a> is based on a <code>%SEARCH%</code>, while this script reads the <code>changes</code> file in each web, making it much faster.
<p></p>
<strong>NOTE</strong>: The result from <code>changes</code> script and the topic <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/WebChanges">WebChanges</a> can be different, if the <code>changes</code> file is deleted from a web. In particular, in new installations the <code>changes</code> script will return no results while the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/WebChanges">WebChanges</a> topic will.

<strong><em>Skin notes:</em></strong>
<p></p>
The <code><a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/SkinTemplates#TemplatePreferences">EDIT_TEMPLATE</a></code> preference (or the <code>template</code> parameter) can be used to override the default 'edit' template on a per-web or per-topic basis.
<p></p>
The <code>action</code> parameter works by loading the <code>editform.tmpl</code> or <code>edittext.tmpl</code> templates in place of the standard <code>edit.tmpl</code>. If an <code>EDIT_TEMPLATE</code> has been defined, then it replaces <code>edit</code>, e.g. if <code>EDIT_TEMPLATE=specialed</code> and <code>action=form</code> then the template used will be <code>specialedform</code>
<p></p>
In most skins that are based on the default templates (such as Pattern skin) you can easily change the <code>Edit</code> and <code>Edit WikiText</code> buttons to append the <code>action</code> parameter, by setting the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/PreferenceSettings">preference</a> <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/VarEDITACTION">EDITACTION</a> to the value <code>text</code> or <code>form</code>. (You can always get back to editing the whole topic by removing the <code>action</code> parameter from the URL browser Location window, and reloading the edit window).
<p></p>
<span id="NewTopicCreation"></span>
<strong><em>New topic creation <span class='foswikiIcon'><img src='/foswiki/bin/../pub/System/DocumentGraphics/wip.png' width='16' height='16' alt='wip' /></span>:</em></strong>
<p></p>
The string AUTOINC followed by one or more digits anywhere in the topic name will be converted to a number such that the resulting topic name is unique in the target web. However this doesn't happen until the topic is saved.
<p></p>
When a new topic is created using edit, the topic isn't actually created until the edit is saved. The content of the new topic is initialised according to the parameters you pass. <ul>
<li> <code>templatetopic</code> - defines the full name (web.topic) of a topic to use as a template for the new topic. The template topic is copied and, unless <code>notemplateexpansion</code> is set, the following macros are expanded in the topic text: <code>URLPARAM</code>, <code>DATE</code>, <code>SERVERTIME</code>, <code>GMTIME</code>, <code>USERNAME</code>, <code>WIKINAME</code>, <code>WIKIUSERNAME</code>, <code>USERINFO</code>.
</li> <li> <code>text</code> - use this as the text of the topic. Macros are <strong>not</strong> expanded in this text. Overrides any text set in the <code>templatetopic</code>.
</li> <li> <code>formtemplate</code> - Overrides any form set in the <code>templatetopic</code>.
</li> <li> <code>notemplateexpansion</code> - given by <code>templatetopic</code>. Use this when you want a verbatim copy of a topic.
</li> <li> <code>onlynewtopic</code> and <code>onlywikiname</code> are used to control validation of the new topic name.
</li> <li> <em><any name></em> - besides the form field value setting described above, when creating a new topic, <code>%URLPARAM{"</code> <em><any name></em> <code>"}%</code> in the <code>templatetopic</code> will be expanded to the parameter value.
</li></ul>

<h3 id="A_61rest_61">  <code>rest</code> </h3>
This REST (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST">Representational State Transfer</a>) script can be invoked via http in the same way as the other scripts (see <strong>Invocation Examples</strong>, below) to execute a function that is associated to a "subject" and a "verb" (see below). These functions are usually registered by plugins using the <code>Foswiki::Func::registerRESTHandler</code> method. The <code>rest</code> script will print the result directly to the browser unless the <code>endPoint</code> parameter is specified, in which case it will output a redirect to the given topic.
<p></p>
The <code>rest</code> script supports the following parameters:

<p></p>
REST scripts that require a topic context must use the standard <code>topic</code> parameter to pass the topic name, as the URL path is used to identify the REST function. If not defined, then the topic context in REST handlers will be <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome">Main.WebHome</a>.
<p></p>
The function is free to use any other query parameters for its own purposes.
<p></p>
<blockquote class="foswikiHelp"> <img src="/foswiki/bin/../pub/System/DocumentGraphics/warning.png" alt="ALERT!" title="ALERT!" width="16" height="16" /> The <code>rest</code> script should <strong>always</strong> require authentication in any site that has logins.

<p></p>
<h4 id="Invocation_Examples">  Invocation Examples </h4>
<p></p>
The <code>rest</code> script assumes that it will be called with URL in the form:
<p></p>
<code>http://my.host/bin/rest/<subject>/<verb></code>
<p></p>
where <code><subject></code> must be the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/WikiWord">WikiWord</a> name of one of the installed <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/Plugins">Plugins</a>, and the <code><verb></code> is the alias for the function registered using the <code>Foswiki::Func::registerRESTHandler</code> method. The <code><subject></code> and <code><verb></code> are then used to lookup and call the registered function.
<p></p>
<code><subject></code> and <code><verb></code> are checked for illegal characters exactly in the same way as the web and topic names.
<p></p>
As an example, the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/EmptyPlugin">EmptyPlugin</a> has registered a function to be used with the <code>rest</code> script under the subject <strong>EmptyPlugin</strong> and the verb <strong>example</strong>. 
<p></p>
The URL to call this function from a browser would be: <ul>
<li> <code>https://matisse.oca.eu/foswiki/bin/rest/EmptyPlugin/example?debugenableplugins=EmptyPlugin</code>
</li></ul> 
alternatively, to run it from the commandline: <ul>
<li> <code>cd foswiki/bin ; ./rest /EmptyPlugin/example debugenableplugins=EmptyPlugin</code>
</li></ul> 
<p></p>
Note that for Plugins to register REST handlers, they must be enabled in <code>configure</code>.
<p></p>
<h4 id="Retrieving_passed_values">  Retrieving passed values </h4>
Additional parameters can be recovered via the query object in the <code>$session</code>, for example with the url:
<pre class="html">
http://my.host/bin/rest/MyPlugin/update?web=foo
</pre>
<p></p>
The url parameters can be processed using:
<pre class="perl">
my $query = $session->{request};
my $web = $query->{param}->{web}[0];
</pre>
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61save_61">  <code>save</code> </h3>
The <code>save</code> script performs a range of save-related functions.

to the end of the URL path (after the topic) e.g. <code>https://matisse.oca.eu/foswiki/bin/viewfile/Webname/TopicName/Attachment.gif</code>

Details on command line scripts located in the <code>tools</code> directory.
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61geturl.pl_61">  <code>geturl.pl</code> </h3>
This is a very simple script to get the content of a web site, either using GET or POST. It is marked as <em>deprecated</em> and might be removed in a future release. Its functions are covered by the standard <code>wget</code> and <code>curl</code> commands, which have the added advantage of performing authentication.. <ul>
<li> Usage:    <code>geturl.pl <host> <path> [<port> [<header>]]</code>
</li> <li> Example:  <code>geturl.pl some.domain /some/dir/file.html 80</code>
</li> <li> Will get: <code>http://some.domain:80/some/dir/file.html</code>
</li> <li> Example:  <code>geturl.pl POST some.domain /bin/statistics?webs=Sandbox</code>
</li> <li> Will post: <code>http://some.domain/bin/statistics?web=Sandbox</code> triggering a statistics run
</li></ul> 
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61rewriteshebang.pl_61">  <code>rewriteshebang.pl</code> </h3>
Simple script to rewrite the <code>#!/usr/bin/perl</code> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_%28Unix%29">shebang</a> lines specific to your local Perl installation. It will rewrite the first line of all your cgi scripts so they use a different shebang line. Use it if your perl is in a non-standard location, or you want to use a different interpreter (such as 'speedy').
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61tick_foswiki.pl_61">  <code>tick_foswiki.pl</code> </h3>
This script executes a number of non-essential regular administration tasks that will help keep your site healthy and happy, such as removing expired sessions and lease files.
<p></p>
It is intended to be run as a cron job or a scheduled task once a week. Example crontab entry:<br />
<code>0 0 * * 0 cd /usr/local/foswiki/bin && perl ../tools/tick_foswiki.pl</code>
<p></p>
<strong>Note:</strong> The script has to be run by a user who can write files created by the webserver user.
<p></p>
Extensions, such as the <a href="/foswiki/bin/view/SystemFoswiki/MailerContrib">MailerContrib</a>, also install tool scripts. Check the documentation of the extension for details.
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61extension_installer_61">  <code>extension_installer</code> </h3>
This script will download and install, or remove an extension.
<p></p>
For more details, execute it from the Foswiki root directory with the <code>usage</code> parameter:
<pre>
./tools/extension_installer usage
</pre>
Note that this script is a generic version of the <code>_installer</code> script shipped with each extension.  There are 3 ways to install a script using these scripts: <ul>
<li> Download <code>SomePlugin_installer</code> and execute it from the Foswiki root directory
</li> <li> run <code>./tools/extension_installer SomePlugin</code> - the extension will be downloaded and installed
</li> <li> Use the configure web interface to the Extensions Installer.
</li></ul> 
<p></p>
<h3 id="A_61dependencies_installer.pl_61">  <code>dependencies_installer.pl</code> </h3>
This script searches for missing Perl modules that should be available according to your Foswiki environment and offers installation via CPANPLUS or a supported package management system. It eases Perl module installation, which is part of a Foswiki installation, may be part of an extension installation or may need to follow upgrades. The script can be used to just provide an overview of Foswiki related perl modules in your installation by running it with option <code>-v</code>.
<p></p>
For more details, execute it using option -h (help) or -m (manual):
<pre>
./dependencies_installer.pl -h
Usage:
    dependencies_installer.pl [-h|?|--help] [-m|--man] [-p|--print]
    [-q|--questions] [-v|--verbose]

[...]
</pre>
