Python script & Application for updating the server as a service

[L.Fino 1]

Hii all

 

 

 

Because the update process for the emby server (while it's running as a service) can be a bit annoying, so i made an application with a python script.

 

 

It works no matter where it's located.

You just have to unzip the *.zip file in the attachement. After that, in the unzipped folder run the "emby_update_v2.exe" as administrator.

 

 

The application can be used with diffrent commandline arguments:

 

/beta - Start normal with updating beta server, while its running as a service

/dev - Start normal with updating dev server, while its running as a service

 

/download - Start with downloading the regular version first

/beta_download - Start with downloading the beta version first

/dev_download - Start with downloading the dev version first

 

/taskkill - Start with killing the process instead of stopping the service

/debug - Start into the Debug Mode for debugging the functions.

 

>> without an argument - start normal with updating the regular server, while its running as a service

 

 

 

PLEASE NOTE:

 

- The application normaly starts with the ability to stop the service at very first

 

- If you know the service IS NOT running, start the application with one of the three 'download' arguments

- If you have the Beta server service running, simply add the /beta argument in the commandline

- If you have the Dev server service running, simply add the /dev argument in the commandline

- If you have any kind of trouble, start the application with the /debug argument to try and/or debug functions

You could format it with a new line per argument.
