Absolute Path on Mac to Batch process multiples scripts

[manuelb27477138]

Hello to everyone!

I run multiples scripts with my batch.jsx file:

function batch()
{
   var f1 = File ( "/Users/dev/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/script_1.jsx" );
   var f2 = File ( "/Users/dev/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/script_2.jsx" );
   var f3 = File ( "/Users/dev/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/script_3.jsx" );
   app.doScript ( f1 );
   app.doScript ( f2 );
   app.doScript ( f3 );
}
batch();

Is possible get the absolute path without write manually the path:

/Users/dev/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/

In this way, when I share this script will work on any Mac computer.

Thanks!

/Users/Users/production/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign///Users/production/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/production/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/

Hello,

sorry for did simple, I shorted the URL, but really the URL is:

/Users/dev/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ InDesign/Version\ 13.0/en_US/Scripts/Scripts\ Panel/CCLM/Master\ page/01-Number-Header-to-all-pages.jsx

and it is a problem, because when you share with other your script, and they use a different language the folder change from:

en_US to es_ES

Also with the different versions of Adobe Indesign can be a problem.

Do you know any magic key to fix this?

Thanks so much for help me

Use app.scriptPreferences.scriptsFolder.

See https://www.indesignjs.de/extendscriptAPI/indesign-latest/#ScriptPreference.html

Working!!

thanks so much, both for your help.

var thisScript = new File($.fileName);
var containingFolder = new Folder(thisScript.parent.absoluteURI);
alert("This script is in " + containingFolder.absoluteURI);
var path = containingFolder.absoluteURI;
var appFolder = new Folder(Folder.appPackage.parent.absoluteURI);
alert("The app folder is at " + Folder.decode(appFolder.absoluteURI));
function batch()  
{  
   var f1 = File ( path+"/script_01.jsx" );  
   var f2 = File ( path+"/script_02.jsx" );  
   var f3 = File ( path+"/script_03.jsx" ); 
   app.doScript ( f1 );  
   app.doScript ( f2 );  
   app.doScript ( f3 );  
}  
batch();  

I have a Mac.
