for %%f in ("%INPUT_DIR%\*.dat") do ( start /b "" "%HCBB_PATH%" process --input "%%f" --output "%OUTPUT_DIR%" ) Only use this if HCBB supports concurrent instances. Otherwise, file locking errors may occur. 2. Interactive Menus Create a hybrid script that can run automatically or manually with a menu:
@echo off set HCBB=C:\HCBB\hcbb.exe set LOG=C:\HCBB\logs\nightly.log echo %date% %time% - Nightly cleanup started >> %LOG% hcbb script auto bat
for /f "tokens=1-3 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do set TODAY=%%a-%%b-%%c set OUTPUT_DIR=D:\HCBB_Output\%TODAY% if not exist "%OUTPUT_DIR%" mkdir "%OUTPUT_DIR%" Combine batch scripting with PowerShell to send alerts: for %%f in ("%INPUT_DIR%\*
:: Report %HCBB% report --type daily --email team@company.com >> %LOG% echo %date% %time% - Completed successfully >> %LOG% exit /b 0 Interactive Menus Create a hybrid script that can
:: Archive old logs %HCBB% archive --source C:\Logs --days 30 --destination E:\Archive if %errorlevel% neq 0 goto error
:: ------------------- CONFIGURATION ------------------- set HCBB_PATH=C:\Program Files\HCBB\hcbb.exe set INPUT_DIR=D:\HCBB_Input set OUTPUT_DIR=D:\HCBB_Output set LOG_FILE=C:\Logs\hcbb_auto.log set ERROR_LOG=C:\Logs\hcbb_errors.log
Start with the simple scripts provided in this guide. Test them with non-critical data. Gradually introduce loops, error handling, and scheduled tasks. Within a week, you will wonder how you ever managed HCBB without automation.
