Description

Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
-Just install the script on CAPsMAN device:
+Make sure you have the `package-path` set in your CAPsMAN configuration,
+as that is where packages are downloaded to and where the system expects
+them.
+
+Then just install the script on CAPsMAN device.
+Depending on whether you use `wifi` package (`/interface/wifi`) or legacy
+wifi with CAPsMAN (`/caps-man`) you need to install a different script.
+
+For `wifi`:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-download-packages.wifi;
+
+For legacy CAPsMAN:
+
+ $ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-download-packages.capsman;
+
+Optionally add a scheduler to run after startup. For `wifi`:
+
+ /system/scheduler/add name=capsman-download-packages on-event="/system/script/run capsman-download-packages.wifi;" start-time=startup;
+
+For legacy CAPsMAN:
- $ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-download-packages;
+ /system/scheduler/add name=capsman-download-packages on-event="/system/script/run capsman-download-packages.capsman;" start-time=startup;
-Optionally add a scheduler to run after startup:
+Packages available in local storage in older version are downloaded
+unconditionally.
- / system scheduler add name=capsman-download-packages on-event="/ system script run capsman-download-packages;" start-time=startup;
+If no packages are found the script downloads a default set of packages:
-Only packages available in older version are downloaded. For initial setup
-place the required packages to CAPsMAN package path (see
-`/ caps-man manager`). The packages can be downloaded from device with
-function `$DownloadPackage`, use something like this to download latest
-packages to directory `routeros`:
+ * `wifi`: `routeros` and `wifi-qcom` for *arm* and *arm64*, `wifi-qcom-ac` for *arm*
+ * legacy CAPsMAN: `routeros` and `wireless` for *arm* and *mipsbe*
- $DownloadPackage system "" arm routeros;
- $DownloadPackage security "" arm routeros;
- [...]
- $DownloadPackage system "" mipsbe routeros;
- $DownloadPackage security "" mipsbe routeros;
- [...]
+> ℹ️ **Info**: If you have packages in the directory and things go wrong for
+> what ever unknown reason: Remove **all** packages and start over.
Usage and invocation
--------------------
Run the script manually:
- / system script run capsman-download-packages;
+ /system/script/run capsman-download-packages.wifi;
... or from scheduler.
