Log in Screen

[ghost1257 0]

Hi I am trying to make a log in screen to my computers where you would set up a password and then enter it at boot up and then it would go to the shell but can not figure out how to get it to work? Please Help here is my code. 

repeat

io.write("Please enter Password")

answer= io.read()

if answer == "1257" then

io.write ("welcome back\n")

break

 

elseif answer ~= "1257" then

io.write("\n try again \n")

end

until answer == 1257

I have not tested this code, but it should work

local io = require("io")

while true do
io.write("Enter Password:")
pass = io.read()
if pass == "123" then
	io.write("Welcome")
	break
else
	print("Try again")
end
end

I had save this code as /boot/login.lua and it works perfect. Just use this code.

local io = require("io")
local term = require("term")

term.clear()
while true do
io.write("Password:")
pass = io.read()
if pass == "123" then
  print("Welcome!")
  break
else
  print("Try again")
end
end

Are you using Custom libs?

What are custom libs

 

[JakobDev 0]

Libs who are made by users and not coming with OpenOS,

OK how does the Libs work I'm new to this whole Lua coding.

[JakobDev 0]

The Libs are normal Programs. You can use the functions of this Programs by loading libs. You can look at the build in Libs of OpenOS for example.

I still dont understand what that has to do with my program?

[JakobDev 0]

Maybe Sustom Libs are not aviable at boot, but your programm does not use this, so thats not your problem. You can use the code that I have posted. This code work in /boot.

I tried your code and got this 

Unrecoverable error 

/lib/tools/boot.lua:71: /lib/term.lua:72: attempt to compare nil with number

Than you have a problem with OpenOS. This code works perfect. I have tested it. Try to reinstall OpenOS.
