After being shamed by an AppleScript guru (who shall remain unnamed) living on the Left Coast, I decided to tackle the task of including the run time of the WC computer.

-- Function to get time Macintosh has been running.
-- This information can be displayed on a website
-- for computers left running 24/7
-- - - - - -
local periodString, resultString, resultContent, bootTimeSeconds, UTCtimeSeconds, timeSeconds, uptimeSeconds
-- Set a default value in case there is a problem getting UNIX data
set periodString to "N/A"
try
-- Use system call to get boot time in UNIX seconds.
set resultString to do shell script "sysctl kern.boottime"
on error
-- If can't make UNIX call - return "N/A"
return (periodString)
end try
-- Breakup sysctl command to extract time. Time is 4th item.
set resultContent to words of resultString
set bootTimeSeconds to item 4 of resultContent as integer
-- Get current time as universal time and adjust it to UNIX epoch
set UTCtimeSeconds to (current date) - (time to GMT)
set timeSeconds to UTCtimeSeconds - (date ("1/1/1970"))
-- Compute difference to get uptime in seconds, then covert to elapsed time.
set uptimeSeconds to timeSeconds - bootTimeSeconds
tell WChelperTools to set periodString to seconds2Elapse(uptimeSeconds, false)
return (periodString)
end getMacUpTime
If it were simply the number of seconds since 1900 (or even 2000, when all computers were supposed to crash!), it would be a lot simpler! [tup]
I could use your AS to create my own version of what the OS is already doing. I'm sure there is a PHP script already available to do the same thing. But why buy a wheel when it's so much fun to re-invent one?! [banghead] [biggrin]
Thanks Edouard, that "sysctl kern.boottime" was what I needed. I had found the current time in epoc seconds with "date +%s". But I needed the start up seconds to do the simple math!
I was a bit confused, at first, about your "4th item" in post #7 above. Now I get it! duh! [goofy]
-- Easier to work with epoc seconds (seconds since 1/1/1970) for all timesAs you'll see, the output is:
--
set now_time to do shell script "date +%s"
-- Output-> "1452896555"
set boot_time to do shell script "sysctl kern.boottime"
-- Output->"kern.boottime: { sec = 1452638263, usec = 0 } Tu..."
set run_time to (characters 24 thru 33 of boot_time) as text
-- or string (OK), can't use integer
set running_string to (now_time - run_time) as string
set running_text to running_string as text
set running_integer to running_string as integer
set result to "STRING -->" & running_string & "
TEXT -->" & running_text & "
INTEGER --> " & running_integer
I've already shut down the access to my apple scripting mini, so I'll have to check to morrow. My question is if AS is still 32 bits? I had trouble getting it to write a "small" value to the text file without converting it to scientific notation. Setting a variable to the value 'as integer' or 'as text' still converted it. Even had trouble with 'as string', but by adding a tiny piece of text to it, it was forced to stay as i wanted it. I'll check the numbers tomorrow...

OK. I give up. How do I get that script to run on the webpage? I can run it from the script editor and from the terminal and as an app, but I have noy been able to get it to run in the webpage. I am googled out.
I'm sure Stu has heard this before, but I got a laugh when I read it today:Ninety-nine little bugs in the code,
Take one down, patch it around,
