| 03:53.15 | etteyafed | CherryCola: stupid bot is <reply> sorry :_( |
| 03:53.20 | CherryCola | okay, etteyafed |
| 03:56.36 | troubled | busy atm with svn |
| 08:40.20 | numist | #save |
| 08:59.26 | numist | ha, got a Smack client working |
| 08:59.37 | numist | guess that'll be good enough for the freenode twitter bit |
| 09:00.34 | troubled | wth is a smack client and a freenode twitter bit? |
| 09:01.54 | numist | so, Smack is a library to connect to xmpp through Java |
| 09:02.00 | numist | and twitter, you ought to know already |
| 09:02.15 | numist | so twitter can send you updates regarding people you are following via XMPP |
| 09:02.21 | troubled | xmpp? |
| 09:02.24 | numist | so this just grabs them and rebroadcasts into channels that want to hear about it |
| 09:02.27 | numist | xmpp == jabber |
| 09:02.32 | troubled | oh |
| 09:02.56 | troubled | so your bot sends jabber msg's about ppl your following? |
| 09:03.02 | numist | no.. |
| 09:03.12 | numist | the bot recieves jabber messages from twitter about people I'm following |
| 09:03.22 | numist | and then spits them out in channels that want to !follow numist |
| 09:03.30 | troubled | ahh |
| 09:03.33 | numist | or, probably !twitter follow numist |
| 09:03.41 | numist | haven't decided on teh command structure yet |
| 09:04.03 | troubled | just be sure to check its not following itself :) |
| 09:04.11 | numist | since it never updates, shouldn't be a problem |
| 09:04.18 | numist | plus, pretty sure the twitter people thought of that |
| 09:04.45 | troubled | so what would !twitter follow Anna^ do? |
| 09:19.15 | numist | nothing |
| 09:19.23 | numist | Anna^ is an invalid twitter username :) |
| 09:19.33 | numist | so first you have to figure out what her username is (not too hard) |
| 09:19.41 | numist | and then you say follow it, and it does.... nothing |
| 09:19.48 | numist | because twitter's already thought that shit through, man |

| 15:56.28 | etteyafed | Mr TimRiker, would you be interested in peeking at some code that appears to do nothing but should. It is a small bit. Out of IRC/Irc.pl &performreply($reply) |
| 15:56.32 | etteyafed | ? |

| 16:00.49 | CherryCola | reloading... |
| 16:00.49 | CherryCola | reloaded: Irc.pl |
| 16:00.56 | etteyafed | %bview |
| 16:02.48 | troubled | etteyafed: when you submit a patch for review, send a diff, not the full source |
| 16:03.22 | etteyafed | yeah. I wasnt really trying to submit a patch. the code does not work |
| 16:03.40 | etteyafed | i am trying something a bit different |
| 16:03.44 | troubled | still, its easier to tell what you changed or added if its a diff |
| 16:03.52 | etteyafed | ok |
| 16:04.07 | troubled | svn diff IRC/Irc.pl |
| 16:04.24 | etteyafed | I am just trying to get something working. i think i need to move the while out more |
| 16:05.57 | troubled | also, if your trying to do proper long line splits, you need to base the calculation on the raw msg header size as well as the msg length |
| 16:06.46 | etteyafed | http://pastebin.com/d5e73268 is the diff |
| 16:06.46 | troubled | http://cvs.silcnet.org/source/apps/irssi/scripts/splitlong.pl has sample of how it should work |
| 16:06.47 | Anna^ | [pastebin.com] Perl pastebin - collaborative debugging tool |
| 16:06.55 | Anna^ | [cvs.silcnet.org] silc/apps/irssi/scripts/splitlong.pl |
| 16:10.03 | troubled | and if your going to go by splitlong.pl, you need to track down the hash that stores the server the bot is connected to for that msg specifically (since the bot has multi server in mind, you have to make sure its the server for the message, even though the multiserve code is broken atm) |
| 16:11.59 | etteyafed | I know you guys aren't really interested in dealing with code from someone that dosen't even know perl. That is a bit of a pain. I have mainly a C/C++ (and others but those first) background, so interpreted languages were never a priority for me. |
| 16:12.22 | troubled | its not that at all |
| 16:13.55 | etteyafed | I am just thinking of a simple fix. I figured maybe looping through a part of the reply function until the message is complete. I know, it is also a matter of what you have time for. I am in the same boat quite often. |
| 16:14.43 | troubled | if it works, tahts fine, send one of us the patch and we will include it. but it needs to work and be somewhat commented first preferably ;) |
| 16:15.59 | etteyafed | Great. I will let you know when/if i have something. |
| 16:16.03 | troubled | i wouldnt spend too much time working on it though. a full rewrite will probably be lost at somepoint when we start converting to POE. the event driven ways of poe will deal with some of the problems and limitations through arhitectural changes. just keep that in mind |
| 16:16.49 | etteyafed | I don't really care if it sticks, it is just a snippit of code to act as a workaround for now. |
| 16:16.54 | troubled | not to put you off fixing it though :) |
| 16:19.51 | TimRiker | calling sleep in the bot is a bad move. the bot needs to be responsive to irc all the time. sleep() is to be avoided. |
| 16:20.31 | TimRiker | that being said... I don't know why that does not work as you intended. I just glanced at it briefly. |
| 16:21.23 | TimRiker | course you're not checking for private messages, so the reply might go to the wrong place. |
| 16:22.31 | troubled | etteyafed: btw, tim is the "guru" if your looking for why something does/doesnt work :) |
| 16:28.12 | etteyafed | TimRiker: Yeah, the code is really terrible, i just gave it a good look and i see that it is not even close to 'ok'. |

| 16:32.01 | etteyafed | Is it maybe not using my changes? I an editing the file src/IRC/Irc.pl. Is there a different directory for the working source or something? |
| 16:32.29 | troubled | etteyafed: btw, if your interested in sticking it out with this bot, join #infobot. blootbot's svn is about to become stagnant as we are in the process of taking the current blootbot svn and moving it to infobot instead |
| 16:32.54 | troubled | no, thats the file. just make sure you saved it :) |
| 16:33.06 | etteyafed | hmm |
| 16:33.07 | troubled | if it says it reloaded, you most likely did though |
| 16:34.26 | etteyafed | I would understand if there was any change in its behavior, but it is exactly the same and I have changed the code so that it CANT be the same. I must be in the wrong function. |
| 16:35.22 | troubled | make sure its performReply your editing |
| 16:35.38 | etteyafed | it is |
| 16:36.49 | troubled | also, just either call say() repeatidly with the new msg or call performReply again with the remaining msg parts. the say() sub already has flood control iirc, so your sleep shouldnt be needed. just call it fast as you can and let the flood controls deal with it |
| 16:37.03 | troubled | (even though flood throttling sucks atm ;) |
| 16:37.10 | etteyafed | Funny, i have commented the code that adds the '...' but it is still there. |
| 16:37.19 | etteyafed | I took the sleep out |
| 16:37.26 | etteyafed | let it do it in say |

| 16:39.42 | troubled | dont forget to reload ;) |
| 16:40.55 | etteyafed | I didn't change anything, I just don't see how it could still be the same after it has been changed. Maybe it is snipping it when it pulls it from the DB? |

| 16:44.20 | troubled | also, in your blootbot.config file, theres a setting for "set minLengthBeforePrivate 192", might want to comment that out, or set it to 512 and restart the bot while you test, to save from having to + everything |
| 16:46.13 | etteyafed | I am thinking about going for a bot in a language i know |
| 16:46.21 | etteyafed | but i do like this one |
| 16:46.28 | etteyafed | so i would rather not |
| 16:46.42 | troubled | perl's not that bad ;) |

| 16:47.06 | etteyafed | No its not bad, I just hate it. |
| 16:47.09 | etteyafed | ;) |
| 16:47.27 | etteyafed | It is a personal problem really. |
| 16:47.35 | troubled | this is a problem that will be addressed at some point in the near future though. just more important first steps that need to be taken |
| 16:47.59 | troubled | why rewrite all this stuff when the planned rewrite will address it |
| 16:49.03 | troubled | have you heard of POE? |
| 16:58.51 | etteyafed | no |
| 17:09.46 | troubled | its a perl object oriented event drive framework. http://poe.perl.org/ |
| 17:09.48 | Anna^ | [poe.perl.org] POE: Perl Object Environment |
| 17:19.37 | etteyafed | So the infobot soruce is/will be the same as what the blootbot source is now? |
| 17:19.57 | etteyafed | and dev will take place there |
| 17:20.06 | etteyafed | in infobot |
| 17:35.04 | troubled | yes, blootbot is just effectively being renamed to infobot and put in the infobot svn, along with a copy of the old infobot cvs code |
| 17:36.12 | troubled | so the first version you check out will likely be the exact same thing your running now. but i have a branch lined up that will replace it very shortly which is basically trunk, but everything renamed to infobot.* instead of blootbot. so you will either need to reconfig your bot, or rename your config files |
| 17:37.29 | troubled | should be in place and active before the end of the week if all goes well. we are still just deciding on a few final changes while its being tweaked before we go live |
