Run Script Action Guide

This automation feature allows users to execute code snippets in specified programming languages. Currently, we support the following three programming languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python.

Detailed Configuration Steps

To use this feature, users need to prepare the script files, which should be written in JavaScript, TypeScript, or Python.

1. Writing the Script

Users can write scripts directly in the BIKA script editor. Please note that the programming language used by the script must be clearly specified: JavaScript, TypeScript, or Python.

2. Configuring the "Run Script" Action

Follow these steps to configure the "Run Script" action in the BIKA automation interface:

Supported Languages and Libraries

JavaScript and TypeScript:

We provide support for libraries such as fetch, axios, and lodash.
JSON data can be returned to the automation workflow.
- Example code:
```
const str = 'Hello, World!';
const json = { str };
json;
```

For asynchronous functions, it is recommended to encapsulate them in an async function and use the return keyword to return data.

Example code:

(async () => {
  const url = 'https://api.exchangerate-api.com/v4/latest/USD';
  const response = await fetch(url);
  if (!response.ok) {
    throw new Error(response.status);
  }
  return await response.json();
})();

JavaScript Example2

Python:
- Supported libraries include numpy, httpx, bs4, and pandas.
- The requests library is not supported.
- All return variables will be output to the automation workflow.
  - Example code:
    import httpx url = 'https://api.exchangerate-api.com/v4/latest/USD' r = httpx.get(url) data = r.json()

3. Setting Up the Automation Action

Add a new action on the automation task editing page and select "Run Script" from the list of action types.
Choose the script language: JavaScript, TypeScript, or Python.
In the "Script Content" area, enter the script code. For example, you could run a simple Python script to print "Hello World":
```
print("Hello World")
```
Save and Enable: After completing the script setup, click "Save" to save the action.

4. Perform a Test Run

Execute the Test:

Return to the automation task interface.
Click the "Run Now" button at the bottom of the page, and the system will execute the script according to your configuration.

2。 Check the Results: After the script execution, you can confirm the output by reviewing the run history. If the script runs smoothly and returns the expected results, the configuration is correct.

With this, the configuration and execution of the "Run Script" automation action have been successfully completed.
