Your first script

Run serhelp start and open the script directory it prints.

Create hello.ser:

Print "Hello from SER!"

Then use the server console or Remote Admin:

serrun hello

You should see Hello from SER! followed by confirmation that the script was requested to run.

If hello was not registered, serrun searches the entire script directory for a new hello.ser or hello.txt, registers that file, and retries automatically. You do not need to run serreload before the first execution of a newly added utility script.

Remote Admin senders require the ser.run permission.

Make the script do more

Print "Starting the greeting"
wait 1s
Print "Hello after one second"

Instructions normally execute from top to bottom. wait pauses only this script's execution.

If it does not run

Use:

serstatus

It distinguishes:

  • an accepted script;
  • a file that failed to compile or register;
  • a disabled filename beginning with #;
  • multiple files competing for the same script name.

Next: files, names, and reloads.
