Publish all open files using JSFL script problem

[Todd31479318hnlq]

Hi, I'm trying to get a jsfl script to run in Animate 23.0.2 through Run Command... that will publish all open files. The script I'm using is below. My problem is that it only will publish the open tab file, but it does it in every open file's directory. So, I end up with one file's published files in all the directories. 

function export_all(){ 
    var docs=an.documents;
    var docs_length=docs.length;
    for (var i=0; i<docs_length; i++) {  
        var doc = docs[i];
        doc.publish();
    }
}

export_all();

try:

for (doc in fl.documents) {
fl.documents[doc].publish();
}

Thanks for the reply. I tried your solution and it has the same behavior as the script I posted, it publishes only the current tab document to all the open document's directories.

[kglad]

not for me.  all fla's open in animate publish.

create a new directory 

save your jsfl to that new directory with a new name.

retest.

Hi.

Both scripts work for me.

Can you provide more details?

Yes, I made some new test files and placed them in new directories. I renamed the JSFL and put that in a new directory. I'm running macOS Ventura and Animate 23.0.2.
I took some screen shots.

Directories before running the JSFL script:

 

Animate with files open. Banner_File_1.fla being the current tab.

Directories after running the JSFL:

so, is there a problem?

[JoãoCésar]

It really fails when the document type is HTML5 Canvas.

[Todd31479318hnlq]

Oh, I see. So, it just won't work for publishing HTML5 Canvas?

[kglad]

that's a bug.  all the canvas doc's are published with the same name.

[Todd31479318hnlq]

I do not want to mix all my image files in the same image directory. My files (hundreds of them) all have the same naming structure, they would just overwrite one another.

[kglad]

that was my error. using the same directory for all the fla's doesn't prevent the name problem/bug.

[Todd31479318hnlq]

It's not just the name that is is the same, They are actually all the same file being published. Thes files all have different dimensions and all the published files are the one file's dimension with that file's related image assets. 

[kglad]

understood.  that's a bug.

if neither show a place to report the issue, just leave it here.  that's the best you can do.

It's not an ideal solution, but it worked for both AS3 and HTML5 Canvas documents.

var docs = fl.documents;
var docIndex, doc;

for (docIndex in docs)
{
	doc = docs[docIndex];
	fl.setActiveWindow(doc);
	doc.publish();
}

[Todd31479318hnlq]

Yes, one of my team just came up with a similar solution:

for (var i = 0; i < fl.documents.length; i++) {

    an.setActiveWindow(fl.documents[i]);

    an.getDocumentDOM().publish();

}

Thank you for your help.
