Hello everyone. I need a script for eggdrop that will let me make eggdrop go to a website and retrieve the text from it.

The website is a simple PHP script that echoes only one line of text. Now, I would like eggdrop to go there and write back that line of text in the IRC channel. It would look like this:

Quote:
<me> !webreq http://domain.com/script.php
<eggdrop> Your text is this and that.


Thank you.

Code:

bind pub - !webreq my:webreq

proc my:webreq {nick uhost hand chan text} {
   if {[scan $text {%s} url] != 1} {
      puthelp "NOTICE $nick :Error, correct syntax is: !webreq <url>"
      return
   }
   set token [::http::geturl $url]
   set content [::http::data $token]
   ::http::cleanup $content
   foreach line [split $content \n] {
      puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$line"
   }
}

Here's something simple that should do what you need.

Thanks. I'll test it now.
I'm a newbie to all this... I put that code into web.tcl, right?

EDIT: Thank you!!! It works perfectly Smile Thanks again!
