This repository holds a number of [scripts](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Scripting) to manage RouterOS devices or extend their functionality. *Use at your own risk*, pay attention to [license and warranty](#license-and-warranty)! Requirements ------------ Latest version of the scripts require recent RouterOS to function properly. Make sure to install latest updates before you begin. If new functionality or a breaking change in RouterOS `7.n` is used in my scripts I push my change some time after `7.(n+1)` was released. At any time you should have at least two minor and their bugfix releases to choose from. Specific scripts may require even newer RouterOS version. > ℹ️ **Info**: The `main` branch is now RouterOS v7 only. If you are still > running RouterOS v6 switch to `routeros-v6` branch! Initial setup ------------- ### Get me ready! If you know how things work just copy and paste the [initial commands](INITIAL-COMMANDS.md). Remember to edit and rerun `global-config-overlay`! First time users should take the long way below. ### Live presentation Want to see it in action? I've had a presentation [Repository based RouterOS script distribution](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9neG3oAhcY) including demonstation recorded live at [MUM Europe 2019](https://mum.mikrotik.com/2019/EU/) in Vienna. > ⚠️ **Warning**: Some details changed. So see the presentation, then follow > the steps below for up-to-date commands. ### The long way in detail The update script does server certificate verification, so first step is to download the certificates. If you intend to download the scripts from a different location (for example from github.com) install the corresponding certificate chain. /tool/fetch "https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts/plain/certs/E1.pem" dst-path="letsencrypt-E1.pem"; ![screenshot: download certs](README.d/01-download-certs.avif) Note that the commands above do *not* verify server certificate, so if you want to be safe download with your workstations's browser and transfer the files to your MikroTik device. * [ISRG Root X2](https://letsencrypt.org/certs/isrg-root-x2.pem) * Let's Encrypt [E1](https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-e1.pem) Then we import the certificates. /certificate/import file-name=letsencrypt-E1.pem passphrase=""; Do not worry that the command is not shown - that happens because it contains a sensitive property, the passphrase. ![screenshot: import certs](README.d/02-import-certs.avif) For basic verification we rename the certificates and print their count. Make sure the certificate count is **two**. /certificate/set name="E1" [ find where common-name="E1" ]; /certificate/set name="ISRG-Root-X2" [ find where common-name="ISRG Root X2" ]; /certificate/print count-only where fingerprint="46494e30379059df18be52124305e606fc59070e5b21076ce113954b60517cda" or fingerprint="69729b8e15a86efc177a57afb7171dfc64add28c2fca8cf1507e34453ccb1470"; ![screenshot: check certs](README.d/03-check-certs.avif) Always make sure there are no certificates installed you do not know or want! All following commands will verify the server certificate. For validity the certificate's lifetime is checked with local time, so make sure the device's date and time is set correctly! Now let's download the main scripts and add them in configuration on the fly. :foreach Script in={ "global-config"; "global-config-overlay"; "global-functions" } do={ /system/script/add name=$Script source=([ /tool/fetch check-certificate=yes-without-crl ("https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts/plain/" . $Script . ".rsc") output=user as-value]->"data"); }; ![screenshot: import scripts](README.d/04-import-scripts.avif) And finally load configuration and functions and add the scheduler. /system/script { run global-config; run global-functions; }; /system/scheduler/add name="global-scripts" start-time=startup on-event="/system/script { run global-config; run global-functions; }"; ![screenshot: run and schedule scripts](README.d/05-run-and-schedule-scripts.avif) ### Scheduled automatic updates The last step is optional: Add this scheduler **only** if you want the scripts to be updated automatically! /system/scheduler/add name="ScriptInstallUpdate" start-time=startup interval=1d on-event=":global ScriptInstallUpdate; \$ScriptInstallUpdate;"; ![screenshot: schedule update](README.d/06-schedule-update.avif) Editing configuration --------------------- The configuration needs to be tweaked for your needs. Edit `global-config-overlay`, copy relevant configuration from [`global-config`](global-config.rsc) (the one without `-overlay`). Save changes and exit with `Ctrl-o`. /system/script/edit global-config-overlay source; ![screenshot: edit global-config-overlay](README.d/07-edit-global-config-overlay.avif) To apply your changes run `global-config`, which will automatically load the overlay as well: /system/script/run global-config; ![screenshot: apply configuration](README.d/08-apply-configuration.avif) This last step is required when ever you make changes to your configuration. > ℹ️ **Info**: It is recommended to edit the configuration using the command > line interface. If using Winbox on Windows OS, the line endings may be > missing. To fix this run: > `/system/script/set source=[ $Unix2Dos [ get global-config-overlay source ] ] global-config-overlay;` Updating scripts ---------------- To update existing scripts just run function `$ScriptInstallUpdate`. If everything is up-to-date it will not produce any output. $ScriptInstallUpdate; ![screenshot: update scripts](README.d/09-update-scripts.avif) If the update includes news or requires configuration changes a notification is sent - in addition to terminal output and log messages. ![news and changes notification](README.d/notification-news-and-changes.avif) Adding a script --------------- To add a script from the repository run function `$ScriptInstallUpdate` with a comma separated list of script names. $ScriptInstallUpdate check-certificates,check-routeros-update; ![screenshot: install scripts](README.d/10-install-scripts.avif) Scheduler and events -------------------- Most scripts are designed to run regularly from [scheduler](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:System/Scheduler). We just added `check-routeros-update`, so let's run it every hour to make sure not to miss an update. /system/scheduler/add name="check-routeros-update" interval=1h on-event="/system/script/run check-routeros-update;"; ![screenshot: schedule script](README.d/11-schedule-script.avif) Some events can run a script. If you want your DHCP hostnames to be available in DNS use `dhcp-to-dns` with the events from dhcp server. For a regular cleanup add a scheduler entry. $ScriptInstallUpdate dhcp-to-dns,lease-script; /ip/dhcp-server/set lease-script=lease-script [ find ]; /system/scheduler/add name="dhcp-to-dns" interval=5m on-event="/system/script/run dhcp-to-dns;"; ![screenshot: setup lease script](README.d/12-setup-lease-script.avif) There's much more to explore...

You can still use my scripts to manage and deploy yours, by specifying `base-url` (and `url-suffix`) for each script. This will fetch and install a script `hello-world.rsc` from the given url: $ScriptInstallUpdate hello-world "base-url=https://git.eworm.de/cgit/routeros-scripts-custom/plain/"; ![screenshot: install custom script](README.d/13-install-custom-script.avif) For a script to be considered valid it has to begin with a *magic token*. Have a look at [any script](README.d/hello-world.rsc) and copy the first line without modification. Starting a script's name with `mod/` makes it a module and it is run automatically by `global-functions`. ### Linked custom scripts & modules > ⚠️ **Warning**: These links are being provided for your convenience only; > they do not constitute an endorsement or an approval by me.
