Here are some example utility scripts which I have found useful from time to time. They are provided with no warranty - use at your own risk! Have a quick look inside to see parameters etc.
See this page for a list of GUI utilities to add in to the Tools menu for p4win or p4v.
You also browse this directory in P4Web.
See this page for a list of triggers with a suitable framework.
| specsaver.rb | A branch of Tony Smith's script - updated for Ruby 1.8 - does automated versioning of various spec entities (e.g. client specs, branch specs, labels etc). |
| p4checkpoint.pl | A branch of Sandy Currier's script to do checkpoints and backups. Enhance to do verifies and email the results. |
| SaveLabels.pl | An (old) script which stores the contents of labels as text files in Perforce. Left for posterity but specsaver.rb above does this better! |
| CreateClient.pl | A simple script to create clients from others copying over other stuff as well as just the views (e.g. options). Again, somewhat dated these days. |
| p4replicate | A script for replicating changelists between two Perforce servers. See link for documentation. |
A bit hacky (e.g. env stuff still hard coded in) but shows example of how to use VSS OLE Automation from Perl. They tend to be recursive and take a single parameter which is VSS path to start from, e.g.
vss_deleted_files.pl "$/project 1/subdir"
| vss_deleted_files.pl | A script to print out a list of VSS files and directories which are marked as deleted. |
| vss_deleted_files.rb | A Ruby script to print out a list of VSS files and directories which are marked as deleted. |
| vss_rev_date_problems.rb | A Ruby script to print out a list of VSS files which have revisions missing or later revisions with earlier date/times. |
| vss_illegal_filenames.pl | Prints out VSS files that are "illegal" as far as Perforce is concerned (e.g. have @, #, *, % or unprintable chars in their name). |
| vss_linked_files.pl | A script to print out a list of linked (shared or branched) files in a VSS repository. |
