Thank you man, it's working great now
I might use that flood protection on my script as well if that is okay with you

By the way, I added you to the credits of the script. If anyone's interested to get this version, this is it:

Great!
And look at this. You can replace

Code: Select all

    if { $permission_result == 0} { return }

With the

Code: Select all

    if {![channel get $chan imdb]} { return }

After that delete

Code: Select all

proc channel_check_imdb { chan } {
    foreach setting [channel info $chan] {
        if {[regexp -- {^[\+-]} $setting]} {
            if {![string compare "+imdb" $setting]} {
                set permission 1
                break
            } else {
                set permission 0
            }
        }

    }
    return $permission
}

and

Code: Select all

    set permission_result [channel_check_imdb $chan]

And can you replace this

Code: Select all

    set output [replacevar $output "%title" $title]
    set output [replacevar $output "%aka" $aka]
    set output [replacevar $output "%url" $cleanurl]

With something like that

Code: Select all

    set output [string map "%title" "$title" "%aka" "$aka" "%url" "$cleanurl" $output]

?

[caesar]

Code: Select all

set output [string map [list "%title" "$title" "%aka" "$aka" "%url" "$cleanurl"] $output]

He can also replace:

Code: Select all

    set output [replacevar $output "%title" $title]
    set output [replacevar $output "%aka" $aka]
    set output [replacevar $output "%url" $cleanurl]
    set output [replacevar $output "%name" $name]
    set output [replacevar $output "%genre" $genre]
    set output [replacevar $output "%tagline" $tagline]
    set output [replacevar $output "%plot" $plot]
    set output [replacevar $output "%keywords" $keywords]
    set output [replacevar $output "%awards" $awards]
    set output [replacevar $output "%comment" $comment]
    set output [replacevar $output "%rating" $rating]
    set output [replacevar $output "%rbar" $rating_bar]
    set output [replacevar $output "%votes" $votes]
    set output [replacevar $output "%top250" $top250]
    set output [replacevar $output "%mpaa" $mpaa]
    set output [replacevar $output "%time" $runtime]
    set output [replacevar $output "%country" $country]
    set output [replacevar $output "%language" $language]
    set output [replacevar $output "%mcolor" $movie_color]
    set output [replacevar $output "%aspect" $aspect_ratio]
    set output [replacevar $output "%soundmix" $soundmix]
    set output [replacevar $output "%cert" $cert]
    set output [replacevar $output "%locations" $film_locations]
    set output [replacevar $output "%company" $company]
    set output [replacevar $output "%budget" $budget]
    set output [replacevar $output "%screens" $screens]
    set output [replacevar $output "%reldate" $reldate]

with a single long line like this:

Code: Select all

set output [string map [list "%title" "$title" "%aka" "$aka" "%url" "$cleanurl" "%name" "$name" "%genre" "$genre" "%tagline" "$tagline" "%plot" "$plot" "%keywords" "$keywords" "%awards" "$awards" "%comment" "$comment" "%rating" "$rating" "%rbar" "$rating_bar" "%votes" "$votes" "%top250" "$top250" "%mpaa" "$mpaa""%time" "$runtime" "%country" "$country" "%language" "$language" "%mcolor" "$movie_color" "%aspect" "$aspect_ratio" "%soundmix" "$soundmix" "%cert" "$cert" "%locations" "$film_locations" "%company" "$company" "%budget" "$budget" "%screens" "$screens" "%reldate" "$reldate"] $output]

I mean it but show only small part of code.

[spithash]

Great! Thanks guys

The script is updated:

http://phobos.bsdunix.info/imdb.tcl

[goalie204]

the script is not working for me.

when i execute the search, there is no reply from my bot, and doesn't say anything in party line

any help?

[spithash]

I'm not sure what the problem might be. A bunch of friends are using this script and it's working great for each one of them, even recently (a day ago) a new eggdrop we've setup, is working great with it. Are you sure you have http.tcl loaded before the imdb.tcl ?

[goalie204]

yep 100% for sure

i don't know why it's not working either

<goalie> !imdb 21 jump street
<secksy> Error retrieving URL... try again later.

[x0x]

The script works fine with Eggdrop 1.8, it is a bit slow however! It takes approx. 9 to 10 seconds before a reply arrives with the results.

Now I know it needs to scrape imdb.com once or twice and I already changed the script to use "putquick".

I'm not a developer but maybe it's a good idea to use the IMDb api?

http://app.imdb.com/find?q=Ghostbusters

[spithash]

For those who asked me what happened to my server where I host some of the scripts we maintain here in this forum, I was under attack and unfortunately it was down for a few days, had to nullroute it to avoid problems. Anyway, it's up again. The link(s) are working again. as for the host/box bsdunix.info it will be up soon too. for now, I'll be using some other servers such as phobos.bsdunix.info and cronus.bsdunix.info.

Thank you for your patience.

[l1ve]

How can i get usascreens and ukscreens with this script?

Like this api does http://www.deanclatworthy.com/imdb/

[bunnybump]

it doesn't works for me anymore. it's showing like below:

Code: Select all

Error in search mechanics - you probably need a newer version.

is there any new version of this tcl type?

[goalie204]

any chance of an update good sir?

[tusinamuna]

Yep, Waiting for an update <3
