Hello,

I would like a little help with amxmodx scripting, I'm trying to store output of server_cmd in a string ... I just can't figure it out howto.

I was thinking at:

new data = server_cmd("echo MATCHSTRING");
new data_match[30]; copy(data_match, 29, data);

if(contain(data_match, "MATCHSTRING)) { 
[...]
}

But, data_match returns nothing, I've tried also with log_to_file(file.log, "%s", server_cmd("echo MATCHSTRING"); - but still doesn't work.


So, the main question is: how can I store return of the server_cmd into a variable ?

server_cmd("echo 123"); returns "123" - I want to store this in a variable.


Note: My server_cmd will return dynamic content, that's why I need to store it into a variable.

server_cmd() returns the length of the string that you sent to the server's console.
It does not return the output of the command that you send.

I don't know where you got that information, but it is wrong.

What I want is to execute a server_cmd and return the output in a string, is it possible ?

You have to use Orpheu.
Here is an example:
