Never mind. I just load the script and have it do:
Thanks again for all your help NML!

Ok Nml. Thank you.

Whats the best way to make sure that this "log monitoring" starts as soon as the bot is started?


KenH83.

nml, I changed the following line: puts stdout "Read line: $::tailBuffer($fileId)" to: putlog "Read line: $::tailBuffer($fileId)" from partyline on the bot i execute the following command: .tcl [openFile /path/to/filename.log] The actual log file i'm using is 100% real the user a...

nml, whats the proper syntax to get this started.. and it stays running right?

I guess what I'm getting at here, is I want to actively monitor a log file so that each time something new is wrote the tcl script catches it.. but doesn't care about previous entries.. and.. the log file must remain intact like a normal log file. Hopefully I'm not confusing you or asking too much, ...

How can I safely start this and allow it to keep running so it actively checks the files.. without it interferring or 'locking' up the bot?

nml,

Yeah.. i'm looking for example on how to do it for a system log file.

I would love to have a script that I could use to parse log files "live". I'm not even sure where to really start with how to read a log file basically every second and have it return the new lines of text that are put into the log file. As far as parsing the text, I can handle that much.....

If I get some time I may actually re-work this script to get other information such as screening totals and various other things.

we'll see.

To fix rating: Change line 205 from: this: regexp -nocase -- {<span class="rating-rating"><span class="value">(.*?)</span>} $data -> rating; to this: regexp -nocase -- {<span itemprop="ratingValue">(.*?)</span>} $data -> rating; Enjoy.

|1ve, i don't run this script.. but imdb change the html on the voting information on their page.. without any testing it seems that in this script line 206 which is this: regexp -nocase -- {href="ratings".*?>(.*?) votes</a>\)} $data -> votes; should be changed to this: regexp -nocase -- {...

Thanks for the fixes GaveUp.

Arkadietz,

It's easy, he said to look thru this entire forum thread on what to do when you are using tcl8.4 -- it's not that complicated and it was talked about a lot.

go read.

GaveUp, Just got the latest GIT of the script and now I'm getting this all the time: !showinfo Dexter [09:59:25pm] <tvrage> {%%show_name%%} ({%%country%%} > {%%network%%} > {%%premiered%%} > {%%show_url%%}) [09:59:25pm] <tvrage> class > {%%classification%%} [09:59:25pm] <tvrage> genre > {%%genres%%}...

goalie, I think (Don't quote me) that it's because of timeouts when communicating with tvrage.com -- They've been having some problems lately.
