From 0104aaeb9d9ca1c4ff56da5905bd4df3a51ec848 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: dotCooCoo Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 18:36:47 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Docs: script stack frames and $.fileName name the file of the code MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit docs/mcp.md's line and stack row said $.stack shows at most 64 lines and uses [global] only for the script's own code. It keeps the innermost 64 frames after a leading line "…" when some are left out, and [global] names any code outside a function, including code that an included file, $.evalFile or eval runs. The row now also says how a frame's file compares with $.fileName in each case: the same file for code from a file, the run's name where $.fileName is empty for a script given as source, [eval] where $.fileName is the file being run, and [unknown] at line 0 where $.fileName is empty. The engineName row now gives the #targetengine name, and the script.run params text, the script module doc and the Scripts evidence line say $.fileName is the file of the code that reads it rather than the file being run. --- crates/engine/src/cmd/scripts.rs | 2 +- crates/engine/src/script/mod.rs | 2 +- docs/mcp.md | 4 ++-- docs/target-app-parity.md | 2 +- 4 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/crates/engine/src/cmd/scripts.rs b/crates/engine/src/cmd/scripts.rs index f5edf1f91d..e93f52a092 100644 --- a/crates/engine/src/cmd/scripts.rs +++ b/crates/engine/src/cmd/scripts.rs @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ pub fn specs() -> Vec { "Run Script", [], None, - "{path?: a .js or .jsx file | source?: the script's text (exactly one of the two), name?: the name errors and the report use (default: the script's #script line, else the path's file name, or \"script\"), args?: {…} (at most 1 MiB as JSON; vc.args in the script), answers?: [{kind: alert|confirm|prompt, value: \"ok\" (alert) | true or false (confirm) | text or null (prompt)}] (for a run with nobody to ask: the answers to its dialogs, in order; at most 10000 and 1 MiB as JSON; refused in the app, where the person answers; an empty object is an empty list), maxFuel?: whole number from 1 to 100000000000 (instructions in all; default 1000000000)} run a JavaScript file against the open documents, through the vc object: vc.run(id, params) runs a command and returns its result, a failed command throws an error the script can catch and puts back the documents and the session state it changed, while any file it wrote stays written and is named; vc.document is a snapshot of the active document or null; vc.commands lists the commands a script may run; vc.log(value) adds to the report and the Script Console (script.console); $.write(...values) writes the values to the Script Console as String(value) gives them, and $.writeln(...values) does the same and ends the line; $.evalFile(path, timeout?) runs a file with the same globals and returns its last value (timeout, in milliseconds from 0, is taken and not waited on), $.fileName is the file being run (empty for text), $.includePath the #includepath list and $.engineName the engine's name (VectorCraft without #targetengine); alert(message[, title, errorIcon]), confirm(message[, noAsDflt, title]) and prompt(message, preset[, title]) open a dialog with a Stop button (default title \"Script Alert\"; message and preset as String(value) gives them; errorIcon and noAsDflt as Boolean(value) gives them; No is the default with noAsDflt): alert returns undefined, confirm true for Yes and false for No, prompt the field's text for OK and null for Cancel; in the app the run waits at the call for the person's answer and Stop ends it as script.stop does, a dialog cannot open inside a callback of a built-in, a getter, a conversion or a file $.evalFile runs and throws there (an #include file's code is the script's own and can), and a run with nobody to ask takes the next of answers, and ends when none is left or the next is for another kind of dialog, or when the script ends with answers unused; vc.args is args.
