extracting information from text to variables

2012-05-01T01:08:12-04:00

Here is a simple method to get the same thing:

Code:

set text [split $text]set nickname [lindex $text 1]scan [string trim [lindex $text 2] {(),}] {%[^@]@%s} ident ispset ip [string trim [lindex $text 4] {[]}]

where $text is the:

CONNECT Zet^ (~CHAT2ME.c@41-135-29-27.dsl.mweb.co.za, CHAT2ME.co.za) [41.135.29.27] has connected to the network

i have this text :
CONNECT Zet^ (~CHAT2ME.c@41-135-29-27.dsl.mweb.co.za, CHAT2ME.co.za) [41.135.29.27] has connected to the network

i would like to capture the nickname, in this case its zet^
also the ident which in this case is CHAT2ME.c
the isp which is 41-135-29-27.dsl.mweb.co.za in the example
and finally : 41.135.29.27 which is wrapped between [ ]

any help would be usefull, i understand i need lindex

Code:

bind pub - "!capture" captureitproc captureit {nick uhost handle chan text} {        set nname [lindex [split $text] 1]        putserv "privmsg $chan :nname is: $nname"        set temp [lindex [split $text] 2]        set temp [string trimleft $temp ~(]        set ident [lindex [split $temp @] 0]        putserv "privmsg $chan :ident is: $ident"        set isp [lindex [split $temp @] 1]        set isp [string trimright $isp ,]        putserv "privmsg $chan :isp is: $isp"        set ip [lindex [split $text] 4]        set ip [string trim $ip \[\]]        putserv "privmsg $chan :ip is: $ip"}

This could be condensed.

Do this in the channel with your bot:

Code:

!capture CONNECT Zet^ (~CHAT2ME.c@41-135-29-27.dsl.mweb.co.za, CHAT2ME.co.za) [41.135.29.27] has connected to the network

and it will respond with the data in the manner you described.

I'm not sure what you are doing with it, but I hope this is enough of an example to get you going.
