quick publish script?

Does anyone have a script that simply goes through all of the branchs and publishes an edition in each nightly? I'm on Winders 2000 if you do :-)

You should be able to write a fairly simple recursion routine to do this - either walking the directories directly and avoiding going down "WORKAREA", "STAGING", and "EDITION" directories - or using the iwlist CLT (unfortunately it doesn't have it's own recusion ability). However, since I'm feeling generous (bored) - this should get you started:duse strict;
use warnings;
use TeamSite::Config;
my $iwhome = TeamSite::Config::iwgethome();

my @branchlist;
get_branches(\@branchlist, "/default/main");

print join("\n", @branchlist) . "\n"; #=# Debugging

sub get_branches{
my($listref, $dir) = @_;
my @branches = qx($iwhome/bin/iwlist $dir);
chomp(@branches);
s|^|$dir/| foreach(@branches);
push(@$listref, @branches) if (@branches);
get_branches($listref, $_) foreach(@branches);
}

since Adam was so bored, I'd just add that in some cases I've just implemented a simple publishing perl script and put it in a cron job, as many branches sometimes have different publish frequency requirements

Greg,

Thanks I thought about doing it on a branch by branch basis in the scheduler... Unfortunatly I'm on windows right now.. waiting for Linux to be more stable :-)

But the requirement I have is extremely simple... publish a new edition every night of any branch that has had changes... So one script will do it.

Now all i gotta do is figure out what #debug... means... from Fish's code. I didn't think he wrote code with bugs ;-)

Thanks again both of you!
