Syntax
runnerLog(message)
or
runnerLog(message, percent, action) (Since JJUPIN 3.0.10)
Description
Puts the message 'message' on the console of a runner gadget. This is a special routine making sense only in JJupin/SIL Excel Reporting and only for the runner. The use of it has no effect whatsoever besides for the runner.
Since JJUPIN 3.0.10, runnerLog routine can also render a progress bar by specifiing the percent we want to be set.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| message | string | Yes | Specifies the message to be put on the runner console |
| percent | number | No | Specifies the percent to be updated on the progress bar |
| action | string | No | Specifies the action to be executed (so far, the only action considered is init_progressBar - to initialize the progress bar; everything else will be ignored) |
Return type
string, can be always ignored
Example
The scripts would look like below:
execution_script.sil
date start_date = gadget_getDateValue(argv, "Start Date");
string tanks = gadget_getSingleValue(argv, "Tanks");
string infantry = gadget_getSingleValue(argv, "Infantry");
string rockets = gadget_getMultiValues(argv, "Rockets");
runnerLog("Preparing to start a war...", 0, "init_progressBar");
runnerLog("The war will start at this date: " + start_date, 10);
runnerLog("Building tanks...");
runnerLog("Built " + tanks + " tanks.", 30);
runnerLog("Gathering infantry...");
runnerLog("Gathered " + infantry + " brave men.", 60);
runnerLog("Fueling rockets...");
runnerLog(rockets + " ready.", 90);
runnerLog("Dispatching orders...", 100);
return "Good job! The world is now at war!";
parameter_script.sil
gadget_createDatePicker("Start Date", currentDate(), true, "Choose a start date");
gadget_createInput("Tanks", "500", true, "The number of tanks");
gadget_createInput("Infantry", "1600", true, "The number of tanks");
gadget_createCheckboxGroup("Rockets", {"A big one", "A lot of small ones"}, "", false, "Do you want to use rockets?");
In this case, using the new runnerLog routine, when the script execution is done, the runner will look like this:
