I try to add a simple text file to my PLC application, so that is download everytime the application is downloaded to the target. What I did is to add an external file to the application and this works perfect as long as the external file location does not change. It looks like the external file path is stored absolute in project. But if different users work on the project they may have different locations where for their working directory. Is there an option to store the external file path relative e.g. to the project file? Or does s.o. know a different solution to add a text file to application in order to download automatically with the application? Thanks

Thank you wollview, it is clear now, it is due to security reasons that access to the file system is restricted.

Nope! The file path is $$PlcLogic$$ and NOT $$PLCLogic$$. Otherwise a new folder ('PLCLogic') is created (at least with a linux rt - like raspberry or compute module) with the new file in it if you open the file with eFileMode := FILE.MODE.MRDWR. That is a bad bug that I'll report right after this comment.

I am trying to generate a JSON payload populated with a value that updates for use with a telemetry system, the payload is to be published by MQTT. I have established the MQTT client and can publish a working JSON payload but I can't get the payload to update as the value (iValue) changes. I am using a timer to trigger the .SetValue function periodically, but the JSON will only give the value as it is when it is first initialized using xFirst IF statement. Any suggestions? Thanks VAR pJsonData : POINTER TO JSON.JSONData := factory.Create(); fb_JBuilder : JSON.JSONBuilder; diRootIndex, diObject1Index : DINT; iValue : INT := 10 ; jsonArrayWriter : JSON.JSONByteArrayWriter; wsJsonData : WSTRING(1000); xFirst : BOOL := TRUE; utf8JsonData : STRING(2000); diTempVal : DINT ; PublishTimer : TON ; END_VAR IF xFirst = TRUE THEN fb_JBuilder ( pJsonData := pJsonData , diRootObj => diRootIndex ) ; diObject1Index := fb_Jbuilder.SetKeyWithObject ( "Device" , diParentIndex := diRootIndex ) ; diTempVal := fb_Jbuilder.SetKeyWithValue ( "Temp" , iValue , diParentIndex := diObject1Index ) ; xFirst := FALSE ; END_IF PublishTimer ( IN := PublishTimer.Q = 0 , PT := T#5S ) ; IF PublishTimer.Q THEN fb_JBuilder.SetValue ( iValue , diTempVal ) ; END_IF jsonArrayWriter( xExecute := PublishTimer.Q , pwData := ADR(wsJsonData), udiSize := SIZEOF(wsJsonData), jsonData := pJsonData^, xAsyncMode := FALSE ) ; JSON.Stu.ConvertUTF16toUTF8( ADR ( wsJsonData ) , ADR ( utf8JsonData ) , SIZEOF ( utf8JsonData ) , bStrictConversion := TRUE ) ;

Post by voffi on projects.open not working for file based storage project

(Post)
Hello! Opening a project from a python script given at the CODESYS command line does not work for me with a file based storage project. Example: Running projects.open("test.project", primary = True) works but converting the project to a file based storage project and then give the folder name as an argument to project.open Running projects.open("test.fbsproj", primary = True) does not work. We decided to work with file based storage for the project. Is there a scripting API for file-based storage to e.g. convert it while running the script back or how to open file based storage project with projects.open? Thank you! voffi

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND or OR.
