Author Topic: Tell relay to guild chat (Read 2906 times)

Malosar · « **on:** March 30, 2006, 05:04:09 am »

I'd write this myself if I really knew what I was doing, however I can't so im asking if someone can write one up quickly as it shouldn't take long. All I need is a simple module to relay a tell from a specific username to guild chat. So if the bot gets a tell from Infonet it will relay the same message to guild chat.

Im in the process of finally converting my guild bot to bebot and I wrote in my own code in IGN bot to handle this, however not sure how to go about it in bebot.

Looking for a way to do this as well. Would be a nice feature to have.

That's easy

Code: [Select]

$commands["tell"][] = &$mod;

function tell ($name, $msg)
{
    if (preg_match(yadda yadda))
    {
         $this->bot->send_gc ($msg);
     }
}

That of course is just to give you the idea of what to do. If you want to relay *anything* from infonet, just change the preg_match to:
if ($name == "Infonet")) {} instead. To get it working, you'll have to fix it up

Hope that helps.

The following is quick but ugly (there're nicer ways to do this).

At the top you can set a list of nick of people from whom you'd like to accept tells to be relayed.
(Tells must be in the format of: !relaytell <message to relay>)

Code: ("RelayTell.php") [Select]

// List of people from whom to relay:
$relaytellnames["SomeGuy1"] = 1;
$relaytellnames["SomeGuy2"] = 1;
$relaytellnames["Malosar"] = 1;
$relaytellnames["ifonet"] = 1;

$relaytell = new RelayTell($bot, $relaytellnames);
$commands["tell"]["relaytell"] = &$relaytell;
$commands["tell2"]["relaytell"] = &$relaytell;


/*
The Class itself...
*/
class RelayTell
{
 var $bot;
 var $names;


 /*
 Constructor:
 Hands over a referance to the "Bot" class
 */
 function RelayTell (&$bot, &$names)
 {
  $this -> bot = &$bot;
  $this -> names = $names;
 }



 /*
 This gets called on a tell with the command
 */
 function tell($name, $msg)
 {
  if (($this -> names[$name]) && preg_match("/^" . $this -> bot -> commpre . "relaytell (.+)$/i", $msg, $info))
    $this -> bot -> send_gc("<font color=#ffff00>$name:</font> " . $info[1]);
 }



 /*
 This gets called on a tell with the command from person outside guild
 */
 function tell2($name, $msg)
 {
  if (($this -> names[$name]) && preg_match("/^" . $this -> bot -> commpre . "relaytell (.+)$/i", $msg, $info))
    $this -> bot -> send_gc("<font color=#ffff00>$name:</font> " . $info[1]);
 }
}
?>

This should work but since I've cancled my account long ago I have no means of checking...

You don't have to make it use a tell command, it should work if it matches a specified name.

Needs to be tested, but I'm pretty sure that it would work.

The other way is using a !command like Blond suggested.

Thanks for the attempts however the first one won't work because the bot.php overrides incoming tell handling if a command isn't known and will just return a /help to the sender without following any relay rules.

The second one won't work in this regard because the server-wide infonet messages won't include a !relaytell command in them though would be useful for other commands I might want.

So I'd hacked this into the bot.php when it resolves an incoming tell:

Code: [Select]

 /*
 Incomeing Tell
 */
 function inc_tell($args)
 {
  $infonet = $this -> aoc -> get_uname($args[0]);
  if ($infonet == "Infonet")
       {
          $this->send_gc("Infonet: ".$args[1]);
        }

Which works but the only problem now is to squash any replies to Infonet. Fortunately Infonet is written to not reply to garbage it doesn't understand so it's not a big problem and won't cause tell tennis. I guess I need to hack something into this section to make sure it doesn't reply either response to Infonet. I've added Infonet as a member as well.

Code: [Select]

    if (!$found && $this -> is_member($user))
    $this -> send_help($args[0], "/tell " . $this -> botname . " " . 

str_replace("\\", "", $this -> commpre) . "help");
    else if (!$found)
    {
     if ($this -> guild_bot)
     $this -> send_tell($args[0], "I only listen to members of 

" . $this -> guildname . ".");
     else
     $this -> send_tell($args[0], "I only listen to members of 

this bot.");
    }

Code: [Select]

if ($infonet == "Infonet")
{
  $this->send_gc("Infonet: ".$args[1]);
  $found = true;
}

That should stop replies cause it tells the bot that code to handle the tell has been found.

ok thanks, starting to work all this out
