The script functionality does also accept parameters. However, this only makes sense if a parameter can be passed to the script when it is started. This can be done by invoking EPLAN via the command line:
W3u.exe ExecuteScript /ScriptFile:"C:\Program Files\EPLAN\EPLAN\Basic\Scripts\EPLAN\SimpleScriptWithParameters.cs" /Param1:"Hello" /Param2:"EPLAN" /Param3:"API developer!"
When starting EPLAN via command line, in order to run a script, the first parameter is the name of the action to execute. "ExecuteScript" is the action for running scripts. This action takes the parameter "ScriptFile" which specifies the name of the script file to be run. Any further parameter (<Param1>, <Param2>, <Param3> etc.) is optional and will be passed to the start function (i.e. the function marked with the "[Start]" attribute) of the script. You can name the further parameters as you wish. In the follwing example they are simply called "Param1", "Param2" and "Param3", but you can just as well give the parameters meaningful names like "Textmodule1", "projectName" or whatever makes sense in your use case.
In the following example, the script (i.e. the script function) requires 3 string parameters "Param1", "Param2" and "Param3":
It is important, that the identifiers (in this example "Param1", "Param2", "Param3") are exactly matching in the command line and in the function!
It is possible to use scripts with ActionCallingContext as a parameter. To do that, please look at the following example:
Using this feature, you can extend the scope of the EPLAN command line by your own parameters. If you need to call some API functionality via command line, just create a script. The start function of this script may take parameters and can call other functions with these parameters.
