EspEasy restore config.dat rules1.txt using script

[ensingg]

I made a (powershell) script dat backups all the settings from the esp8266's in my network and zip it to a daily package.
But now I like to change a rules1.txt using that script and put it back to the espeasy.

Is it possible to do an upload of a rules1.txt (or other) to the esp using HTTP url commands?

The only way is these ways: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... nd_restore

You can upload files using curl:

Code: Select all

curl --form "file=@rules1.txt" http://esp_easy_1/upload

Super. Thats working excellent. Thank you.

ensingg would you mind to share your script?

This is the Windows powershell script I created for home use. It will backup all configuration files of the espeasy in a folder (see end of script) and zip it together.
The code can probably optimized. But works.
