check if services are online

NoZparker · Post by **NoZparker** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 6:12 pm

on unrealircd the command to see if services are on line is /ison chanserv
if true the result is <<notice>> chanserv
if false the result is <<notice>> blank

first how would i send that command in a tcl
would it be putserv "privmsg #chan :\001ISON chanserv"
if not what would the command be

second How would i trap the result
would it be bind notc * *whatever* proc_name

or is it a raw reply
i'm lost

please point me in the right direction

you send with putserv, but just plain 'putserv "ISON chanserv"'.
for the other things you will probably a bind to the notc or raw, depending on what the server responds to you.
If you read TCL-Commands.doc it will enlighten you how to do all this stuff (like seeing raw log, defining a proc to bind notc/raw etc.).

yes i tried the 'putserv "ISON chanserv"' but with two unkowns it make it damn difficult

ie not knowing if the putserv was working

i'll try that now and let ya know

}
proc raw_answer {from keyword text} {
putlog "yes services are running"
}

You didn't check the contents of the reply...the raw will be triggered even if the nick is not on...also keep in mind that the bot will use ISON while trying to regain its nick.

yeah, he should check if [lindex [split $text :] 1] != "" or even better if it is == "chanserv", if this is the only service you need ^-^.

yeah like i said De Kus is da wo .... man (i did wonder about the girllie pic)

and what am i ... He He He !!! or her?.. actually i'm all man ... a big fat one.

anyways to the subject ..
yes i will be using if [lindex [split $text :] 1] == "chanserv"
along with a heap of other stuff so the bot can carry out duties in the absence of services.

and again thanks for your help

it's times like this i wish i had listened to what my dad used to say ....what was that ....don't know i didn't listen

I dislike to go on off topic, but maybe I should make 2 things clear ^-^.
1st: I am a man
2nd: the girly in the avatar is Naga from Slayers ( http://pixelscapes.com/slayers/characters.html ). I will probably switch to one from Lina, because I made that avatar before I watched any episode

.

so do me a favor and quit this topic here, I have plenty of space in my PM and mail box ^^.
