If you see my Rainmeter section you will find that

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
AccurateText=1
OnUpdateAction=[!CommandMeasure MeasureRun "Run"]
So it does run when a refresh is applied. That's the point to.... It needs to do the first scan on itself, and then if something changes it needs to rewrite the everything. That's why it creates a loop, maybe you don't have the update action on your rainmeter section.... I'm sorry if the code I uploaded doesn't have that, my bad.

Here is the template that the script is using:

Code: Select all

[MeasureUsedDisk^1^]

And here is the skin INI code I'm using:

[MeterDummy]

You will see that I added a new measure, [MeasureComparison]. When [MeasureRun] finishes, it enables [MeasureComparison] which will compare the value of [MeasureRun] to the value of the #allDisks# variable. This way, the skin will automatically update when disks are added or removed, and automatically refresh, but avoids the aforementioned refresh loop:
RMAdaptiveDisks2.gif
You can see here that despite needing to write a file and refresh the skin, it is quite fast. Disks Meter is only there to demonstrate which disks are being added and removed.

I have also package an RMSKIN for you so you can check it out in its full glory. With this method, rather than having to worry about escaping variables and getting quotes to work in a !WriteKeyValue bang, all you need to do is edit the template as you would edit a skin, and it'll work. Final note: If you want the script to leave a blank line between iterations of the template, then you need to leave two empty lines at the end of the template.
I will eat and check on that. On thing I noticed is that I forgot to ad on the section [MeterDisk^1^_Name] a text option that should be like: Text=^1^:
and that would be like this:

Code: Select all

SKIN:Bang(string.format('!WriteKeyValue MeterDisk%s_Name "Text" "\'%s:\'" "#@#FileToEdit.txt"',i,i))
in my lua script.

By the way, if you got the template by copy-pasting the first drive that was created with my lua, note that not everything was written, due to the fact that I did not escape many things, if you get the lastest rmskin I uploaded above you should see what I mean. I'll change the template to fit my needs and check how that goes. Huge thanks by the way to all of you! :17good

I actually figured this out myself before I even posted the first script, so I went through and escaped the variables to get the correct values (without escaping them, everything was completely broken). So I went through, fixed your LUA, generated the file, then copied disk C and used that as the template.

But in your remplate you have this:

Code: Select all


[MeterDisk^1^_Name]
Meter=String
MeterStyle=NormalLeft
X=#XFromTheWall#
Y=20r
DynamicVariables=1
UpdateDivider=-1
Which is missing stuff... unless you're talking about your newest upload... I haven't checked that yet. I will in sometime though! Looks really promising and the fact that it's waaaay easier to edit, makes me like it even more. That template thing is great! I'd never have thought of this myself with my experience on lua!

Yeah, I just noticed that you uploaded a new RMSKIN youself, I'll go through and update mine based on that. Gimme a few minutes.

First of all let me tell you that this is an unnecessary amount of help you're providing me with, and secondly, yes, that looks correct. So I guess in your template I cant just use double quotes in stead of all this craziness #quotes#Stop 1#quotes#

Here is my new RMSKIN based on your most recent update:

EDIT: Eh, I'm not really doing much. I already had the script laying around and it wasn't very much work to adapt it for use with your skin. ;)

Anyway, yeah, with the template, you can just write it completely as a normal skin. You don't have to do anything special besides leaving two empty lines at the end if you want the iterations to have an empty line between them. That, and replacing all instances of the disk letter with ^1^.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Yoooo that's some good stuff dude!
Also, I couldn't figure out how this:

Code: Select all

[MeasureComparison]
Measure=String
String=[MeasureRun]
IfMatch=^#AllDisks#$
IfNotMatchAction=[!WriteKeyValue Variables AllDisks "[MeasureRun]"][!DisableMeasure MeasureComparison][!CommandMeasure MeasureLua "Split('[MeasureRun]')"]
DynamicVariables=1
Disabled=1
should be written... The regular expression I tried was wrong in so many levels ... :17denial

Now I only need to figure how I want to mount my disks as well as figure out how to measure the storage of a usb drive... Because those show 0GB/0GB in the current code but I think I got it from here.

Glad to help! To be honest, though, I wasn't completely doing this just to help you - I plan on implementing this method in my own Disks Meter. Right now I'm using the "brute-force" method I mentioned before, where I have measures and meters for every disk baked-in. That causes the INI to be almost 6000 lines long, which absolutely drains Rainmeter's performance every time it updates. This will allow me to make Disks Meter way more performance-friendly, especially for older computers/laptops.

Also, the only thing you need to do to measure removable drives is to add IgnoreRemovable=0 to the total and used disk space measures.
