Running groovy from command line

I found and installed groovy v2.4.7
When I run a serviio groovy file I get a message which suggests I should be using groovy v1.8.6
The serviio documentation link to groovy does not work - http://groovy.codehaus.org/
I got groovy v2.4.7 from http://groovy-lang.org/download.html

On Windows 10 I ran the following:

  Code:

c:\Program Files\Serviio\plugins> SET SERVIIO_CLASSPATH="C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\commons-codec.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\commons-imaging.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\commons-io.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\commons-jxpath.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\commons-lang.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\concurrent.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\derby.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\freemarker.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\groovy-all.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\gson.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\httpcore.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jaudiotagger.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jcl-over-slf4j.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jcs.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jdom.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jnat-pmplib.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\jul-to-slf4j.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\log4j.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\lucene-analyzers-common.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\lucene-core.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\org.restlet.ext.gson.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\org.restlet.ext.net.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\org.restlet.ext.xstream.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\org.restlet.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\padlock.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\rome-modules.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\rome.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\sbbi-upnp.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\serviio-client.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\serviio-media-browser.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\serviio.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\slf4j-api.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\slf4j-log4j12.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\streamflyer-core.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\winp.jar;C:\Program Files\Serviio\lib\xstream.jar;"


  Code:

c:\Program Files\Serviio\plugins> "C:\Program Files (x86)\Groovy\Groovy-2.4.7\bin\groovy.exe" -cp %SERVIIO_CLASSPATH% "C:\Program Files\Serviio\plugins\GooglePlus.groovy"


Resulting in the following error message - version incompatibility highlighted.

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:

How can I download v1.8.6 (or v1.8.9 which looks like it should also work).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've also tried running the version of groovy bundled with serviio as follows, without success...

  Code:

c:\Program Files\Serviio\plugins>java -cp %SERVIIO_CLASSPATH% ..\lib\groovy-all.jar  ".\GooglePlus.groovy"
Error: Could not find or load main class ..\lib\groovy-all.jar


  Code:

c:\Program Files\Serviio\plugins>java -version

This seems like a link to the downloads: https://dl.bintray.com/groovy/maven/

Thanks, found it, looks hopeful.
Not had time to try it yet.

No success here.
groovy.exe does not exist, tried groovy and groovy.bat

looks like the problem is with the space in Program FIles.

you will have to encode the space somehow or store the serviio libs in a non-spaced folder. Or it might be the space from the groovy path, not sure which.

Moved Groovy and Serviio to T:, stil not getting anywhere.

I was hoping your Windows example http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=servio_plugins using GooglePlus.groovy would give me an example to get me started. Moving Serviio and Groovy to T:\ to get rid of the space did not help.

In simple terms the plugin I would like to develop has the following features.
(a) In Serviio console library add an online resource to:

file:///W:/data/sqlbrain.db

(b) Using SQL the plugin will then trawl through the database producing a folder / media file heirarchical list.

The result would be the same as having separate shared folders like this:

c:\myphotos\date1

c:\myphotos\place1

c:\myphotos\event1

The trouble with that is that I have to have 3 copies of the same media - one for the date, another for the place and another for the event.
I don't want to manage that (such as move to Linux and use symbolic links).
The data is already in my database and readily accessible with SQL, so a plugin should not be that difficult a solution.

If you have any suggestions or a working plugin example which will set me on the right path would be useful.
Everything is currently under Windows 10 and would prefer not to go down the domestic Linux / Raspberry PI route.
Thanks.

Examples of my recent attempts using T: drive...

  Code:

The syntax of the command is incorrect.

Tried Groovy debug mode and that did not help.

did you set some env variables yourself? it looks like the .bat file is either wrong or something in your environment is (the double quotes seem weird)


What if you type just groovy.bat
