CrazyCat:
There is problem that BOT doesn't send News to all Its JOINED Channels, Is there any restriction in TCL of Joining Channels?

I will request you to edit it for that Bot send news to all channels whenver it sends.
Thanks.

Move this line out of the foreach loop:

set ::oldnews "$newsdesc $newslink"

Like this:

Code: Select all

proc Google:News args {
   foreach chan [channels] {
      if {[channel get $chan googlenews]} {
         set news [newsdom]
         set newsdesc [lindex [split $news |] 0]
         set newslink [getRealLink [lindex [split $news |] end-1]]
         set newstime [string trim [lindex [split $news |] end]]
         #scan $newsdesc {%[^(]} headline
         if {(![string match *$newslink* $::oldnews] && [expr {([clock seconds] - $newstime) < ($::headlinedelay * 60)}]) || ![llength $::oldnews]} {
            if {$::tinyurl < "1" || ![string length $::tinyurl]} {
               news_print $chan "$newsdesc : $newslink ([duration [expr {[clock seconds] - $newstime}]] ago.)"
            } else {
               news_print $chan "$newsdesc : [news_tiny [string trim $newslink]] ([duration [expr {[clock seconds] - $newstime}]] ago.)"
            }
         }
      }
   }
   set ::oldnews "$newsdesc $newslink"
   return 0
}

This way it spams to all channels joined and given +googlenews

Also the bind time change doesn't work like that in the new eggdrop. Use bind cron like the below instead:

bind cron - "*/5 * * * *" Google:News

The above will call Google:News every five minutes.

Join #eggdrop on irc.rizon.net:6667 for further help.

Do you have a special character at the first line character 0?

having this error after replacing heartbroken's change.

Code: Select all

ok - HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Tcl error [Google_TopNews]: error "no element found" at line 1 character 0

heartbroken · Post by **heartbroken** » Thu Jun 30, 2022 2:12 am

so the problem is GoogleNews looks like forcing to redirects multiple times for each call.

But this getit procedure able to handle redirections only for once
it should be modify for follow the new link location for multiple times until to find some real news data on there.

Goga · Post by **Goga** » Thu Jun 30, 2022 4:01 am

what to do now then?

i got this error

Tcl error [Google_TopNews]: invalid command name "lmap"

Post by **SpiKe^^** » Sat Mar 04, 2023 2:35 pm

lmap was new in tcl 8.6

Update your tcl version to 8.6+ to get past this error.

egghelp/eggheads community

GoogleNews

Google News

Move set ::oldnews "$newsdesc $newslink"

bind time change

Try this one
