Logging *only* ops conversation?

[papajohn]

Can I get a point in the right direction to accomplish this? Basically if i could get the bot to log only the conversation of folks flagged a certain way in the user list... Perhaps a script that does something like it, but needs tweaking in one direction or other. I'm not a total eggdrop newbie, but I haven't done much in the area of coding, and can't find much in the way of pre-fab scripts that would get me in the ballpark. Any help appreciated

This should help point you in the right direction:

Code: Select all

set oplogfile "logs/chanop.log

bind pubm o|o * op:log

proc op:log { n u h c t } {
global oplogfile
   if [isop $n $c] {
      set oplog [open oplogfile a]      
      set timestamp [clock format [clock seconds]]
      puts $oplog "$timestamp = $t"
      close $oplog
   }
}

Warning: this was done at almost 1am and may have errors...

Maybe I need my nose rubbed in it. I put that as a .tcl file and ran it, crashed the bot. Told you I was not that experienced

[DragnLord]

Code: Select all

set oplogfile "logs/chanop.log 

should have been

Code: Select all

set oplogfile "logs/chanop.log"

a better implementation is this one which creates a specific file per channel:

Code: Select all

bind pubm o|o * op:log

proc op:log {n u h c t} {
   if {[isop $n $c]} {
      set oplogfile "logs/$c-chanops.log"
      set oplog [open $oplogfile a]
      set timestamp "[clock format [clock seconds]]"
      puts $oplog "$timestamp = <$n> $t"
      close $oplog
   }
}

For example, chanop log for channel #bots will be logs/#bots-chanops.log.

Next time, state what the error message was when your bot crashed. It crashed because DragonLord forgot to close the open-quote, so

Code: Select all

set oplogfile "logs/chanop.log

should be

Code: Select all

set oplogfile "logs/chanop.log"

I think I posted that was the error.

However, the bot should not have crashed because of that (mine did not).
If the bot crashed on loading that script it may be in conflict with something else, so I changed the variables a little (made them internal to the procedure instead of global).

I didn't notice your reply DragonLord, probably because I clicked reply but wrote the reply late and clicked submit

Eggdrop will not run if there is such an error in a script, but it won't crash if the script is loaded when it's already running.

Maybe that should go into the next version of eggdrop =)

Beautiful Dragnlord

I even figured out to make it record the flagged people (but don't necessarily have to be @ in the channel)


Thank you for the help

it is improper etiquette to have "conversations" via notice, use private messages instead
