Save amibroker database through CLI or scheduled job

[erukumk]

I am using 6.40.4, i am looking for a method (command line or scheduled job) to save database after amiquote finishes import.

Thanks

You can use OLE automation. There is SaveDatabase method of Broker.Application object.

See
https://www.amibroker.com/guide/objects.html#Application

But for what it is worth, you don't need to worry about it, since database is autosaved on exit anyway.

Thanks, i want to save before i take a backup, i noticed, my backups are always one day old as the my service does not save the data before creating a backup.

Hello erukumk,

please have a look/study to this post and search via this forum, you will find everything:

As Tomasz recommend study Amibroker OLE Object Model.

Finally do after AmiQuote OLE process is finished, i use a vb.net app ...

Dim AB as Object = CreateObject("Broker.Application")
AB.SaveDatabase()

I can confirm it is working 100% with AmiQuote and AmiBroker.

Best regards,
Peter

Or standalone JScript (.js file extension)

AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
AB.SaveDatabase();
