IRB IRC Bot
While playing with _why's Try Ruby (in your browser) I wondered if it was possible for it to be used via an IRC Bot.
Here's what I came up with -
#/usr/bin/env ruby
['socket','open-uri','cgi'].each { |x| require x }
server = 'irc.freenode.net'
port = 6667
channel = '#ruby'
nick = 'irbot'
realname = 'irbot'
irburl = 'http://tryruby.hobix.com/irb?cmd='
session = open(irburl + '!INIT!IRB!').read
socket = TCPSocket.new server, port
["NICK #{nick}", "USER #{nick} 0 * :#{realname}"].each { |c| socket.puts c }
while true
socket.puts("JOIN #{channel}")
begin
while line = socket.gets
puts line ## Puts all IRC log live
case line
when /PING :(.+)$/i
socket.puts "PONG :#{$1}"
when /PRIVMSG ([^ :]+) +:(.+)/
m, sender,target, command = *line.match(/:([^!]*)![^ ].* +PRIVMSG ([^ :]+) +:(.+)/)
arg = command[/[^ ]+ +(.+)/, 1]
case command
when /reset session/
session = open(irburl + '!INIT!IRB!').read
when />>/
i = 0
open(irburl + CGI.escape(arg), 'Cookie' => '_session_id=' + session).each { |line|
i += 1
socket.puts "PRIVMSG #{channel} :" + line unless line.include? 'session'
}
end
end
end
rescue
end
end
Example:
James: >> a = [123,321,567]
irbot: => [123, 321, 567]
James: a.delete(123)
irbot: => 123
James: a
irbot: => [321, 567]
James: reset session # => starts a new IRB session
It's still in need of some TLC mind! Oh, and endless loops tend to break it until you reset the session :-)
Enjoy!
Edit: somebody on IRC told me about kirby, that does everything above - just better!
ExpanDrive
I recently found out about (and bought) ExpanDrive by Magnetk. It's simply a an application that lets you mount SFTP (SSH) servers. This means I can edit files on mounted servers as if they were local. It's also surprisingly fast!
It's $29 but there's also a coupon for $5 off - SHFVRDEFO1SGA3QI
Check it out!
The terminal speaks!
while true
system("say Leave!")
sleep(1)
end
The possibilities are endless!Parse IRC
s = ':JR!JR@programmr.net PRIVMSG #test-bot :!hey'
if /\A:([^ ]+)/ =~ s
@sender = $1
if /\A([^!]+)!([^!@]+)@([^@]+)\z/ =~ @sender
@sender_nick = $1
@sender_username = $2
@sender_address = $3
end
end
