ISL Network Start, like other ISL apps for example ISL Light (https://help.islonline.com/19145) and ISL AlwaysOn (https://help.islonline.com/19818/165930), also has its own set of command line arguments. The difference is that ISL Network Start command line arguments apply to all ISL apps that are being started via a link that contains “/start/” instead of “/download/”.
Command Line Arguments
_hide_gui |
When used the GUI of ISL Network Start will not be visible while downloading programs. |
_title |
The title of the progress bar dialog window. |
_connect_options |
Use this to pass special connect options such as HTTP proxy address, username, password, and transport boost. This is the same as --conn-options explained here. Important: Please note that this is an advanced option and should only be used in specific situations. If you experience any problems with your connection, please come to our live chat or write an e-mail to support@islonline.com - we will check the situation and provide further instructions. |
_log_on_desktop |
Generates ISL Network Start log on the desktop. |
Examples
Let's take a look at the example for ISL AlwaysOn. Normally you would start the download with this link:
http://localhost/start/ISLAlwaysOn
By adding the following hide GUI argument, the process does not show the downloading window before opening the application (which reduces issues during deployment):
http://localhost/start/ISLAlwaysOn?__ISL+Network+Start__hide_gui=1
You can also add the following command line argument when starting the application in the terminal:
--hide-gui
Running the application in the Windows terminal:
"ISL AlwaysOn.exe" --hide-gui
Running the application in the MacOS terminal:
open -n ISL\ AlwaysOn.app --args --hide-gui
