Communications Manager Core scripts

This chapter provides information about scripts and their usage.

Scripts help control and configure Communications Manager Core as well as create Communications Manager configuration files.

You can use scripts as components in other scripts. For more information on the syntax of script components, see the section Scripts as commands in the Tungsten Communications Manager Core Scripting Language Developer's Guide.

Scripts are text files containing Communications Manager Core scripting language commands. Communications Manager Core comes with a script editor to facilitate creating and editing scripts.

All scripts are located in the scripts folder of the Communications Manager Core instance. The Scripts folder contains scripts that you create. The User Library folder contains exit point scripts that you can customized.

Scripts placed in the Scripts folder are not automatically exposed as Communications Manager Core Services. To expose a script as a Communications Manager Core Service, it must be added in Communications Manager Core Administrator. To learn how, see Add a Service to create a script.

Communications Manager Core internal scripts and commands take precedence over the scripts created by the user. If you create a script with the same name as an existing Communications Manager Core Script command, your script will not be available. To avoid this issue, adopt a naming convention for scripts. For example, you can name your scripts starting with your company name.
