applescriptautomatorssh
I have a Apple TV 2nd generation that is jailbroken and I run xbmc on it. At times it gets hung or freezes up. At that point, I open up the terminal on my macbook and run this script.
ssh root@apple-tv.local
it asks me the password. I type in alpine
then I run "killall AppleTV"
Is there any way to make this a one click operation, like a desktop icon that achieves the same result? Maybe an Apple Script or a Automator workflow?
Any ideas please?
n = STDIN.read.scan(/-?[0-9., ]+/)[0]
separator = "."
separator = "," if n =~ /.+[. ].+,.+/ || n =~ /,/ && n !~ /\./
separator == "." ? n.gsub!(/[, ]/, "") : n = n.gsub(/[. ]/, "").gsub(",", ".")
out = "%.02f" % ((n.to_f * 1.19 * 100).round.to_f / 100)
out.gsub!(".", ",") if separator == ","
print out
The problem here is you have the input being passed to stdin. I don't know why that's the default, but you should be able to just change the popup menu in the top right to "as arguments." I did that and added cd "$1" to the top of the script and it worked.
Best Answer
you could
ssh root@apple-tv.local killall AppleTV, also you might want to change your passwd from the default. As for a icon, you could but the above into a file and name it with a.shextention, which could then be 'clicked on'.If you don't want to be prompted for a ssh passwd, set up some ssh keys.
Setting up ssh keys
If you already have a key on your computer, skip to step 2
ssh-keygen -t rsaand follow the the prompts. If you use a passphrase, you'll want to set up ssh-agent.Copy contents of
~/.ssh/id_rsa.pubto~/.ssh/authorized_keyson the tv.chmod go-rwx ~/.ssh/authorized_keysThis is just a quick example, check out this wiki for more.
