Feature Requests / Re: Process JSON data from a file

« on: July 03, 2017, 12:46:29 PM »

If you have a website of your own you could make a api that spits out all the info from a single json in one go

I ended up doing this.  I finally found a free web host, without advertisements, that allows PHP.  So now I'm making a single @customapi@ request to a script I wrote that is making a single request to the necessary JSON API, and outputting a formatted string that includes all the necessary data.

For anyone else trying to do this, https://freehosting.host/ offers free web hosting without any advertisements, with SSL/TLS, PHP, PERL, SQL, FTP and e-mail.  Setup requires a $0.01 verification charge via PayPal, which is refunded the next day.  For more information: https://freehosting.host/products/compare-web-hosting-plans/

Bug Reports / Stream Titles with Square Brackets

« on: May 03, 2017, 11:44:20 PM »

Bug: Stream Titles with Square Brackets Processed as Closing Bracket of Variables
Info: If a stream title contains square brackets, the closing square bracket will be used as the closing bracket of variables.
How you produced this bug or came across it:

• Set the stream title to something with square brackets, such as MM with Viewers [Day 100/365] !discord
• Create a command such as !addcmd !status @if@[@uptime@||Offline||Stream is offline.||@title@ (@game@)]
• Use the command when stream is offline.  Output will be: Stream is offline. !discord (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive)]
  

Note the closing square bracket at the end of the output, because the closing square bracket from the day counter in the title is used as the closing square bracket for the @if@ variable, thus leaving the closing square bracket after the game as actual text.

Feature Requests / Process JSON data from a file

« on: April 26, 2017, 07:35:44 PM »

Could a way to process JSON data from a file be added?  Something like @readjsonfile@[file.txt,payload.object.key].

This would reduce demand on API servers for commands that need to read multiple values.  I currently have a command that reads eight values from an API.  That means eight separate requests to the API each time the command is run.  Even more, if I add more information to the command.  It would be much more efficient if I could make a single API request and store the JSON payload in a file that I could then read as many times as needed.

Example:

Code: [Select]

@savefile@[jsonpayload.txt,@customjsonapi@[https://site.com/api]]Value 1 is @readjsonfile@[jsonpayload.txt,payload.object.key1]. Value 2 is @readjsonfile@[jsonpayload.txt,payload.object.key2].
* Probably have to use @customapi@ to retrieve the whole payload, to avoid an error from @customjsonapi@ not being given the "field" variable.

Bug Reports / Re: Crash on Improperly Formatted API Call

« on: April 20, 2017, 03:16:17 AM »

I made a mistake in reporting that "payload.object" didn't exist.  It did exist, so I was actually attempting to read an object as a key, thus resulting in a crash.

Bug Reports / Crash on Improperly Formatted API Call

« on: April 19, 2017, 07:13:06 AM »

Bug: DeepBot crashes on improperly formatted API calls.
Info: DeepBot will crash when accessing an object, as opposed to a key, within the @customjsonapi@ variable, even if the object doesn't exist.
How you produced this bug or came across it: I was adding a test to see if an object existed within a JSON payload in order to print a different message instead of the usual "API Error" when the key was not found.  Basically, I was doing @if@[@customjsonapi@[api.site.com/path,payload.object]||API Error||Doesn't exist.||@customjsonapi@[api.site.com/path,payload.object.key]].  Even though "object" didn't exist within "payload", DeepBot crashed anyway.  When I changed it to check if "payload.object.key" existed, everything worked fine.

Note: I am a chat moderator for a DeepBot user.  I do not have access to the debug output.

Feature Requests / Creating commands that use @if@ in chat

« on: March 13, 2017, 04:39:37 AM »

Twitch is currently filtering the double-pipe "||" from chat, thus preventing the use of the @if@ variable in commands created via chat.  Typing @if@[1||1||True||False] in chat ends up as @if@[11TrueFalse] in DeepBot.

Please, please, please, please add the ability to use a different separator in the @if@ variable.  You don't have to replace the double-pipe, which would of course break existing commands, but please add the ability to use other separators that Twitch isn't filtering out.

Optionally, contact Twitch.  I talked with a Twitch chat staff member and he suggested that expertsonline contact Twitch to see if they might be willing to remove the double-pipe filtering.

I know it is possibly to send send the streamer a file with the command(s) that he can then import into DeepBot, but if he doesn't get around to it, for whatever reason(s), this brings us back to being unable to add @if@ to commands that moderators have to create via chat.

Feature Requests / A Time-Since Variable

« on: January 17, 2017, 06:13:10 AM »

I would like to have a @countup@ or @timesince@ variable that would provide the time since a given date & time.  Ideally, the output would be in the form of years, months, days, hours.  This could be done as an option to the @unixtime@ variable, so that instead of just using @unixtime@ to get seconds since epoch, expand the variable to accept a date and optional time, such as @unixtime@[November 01, 2000 21:30 -0800], and then we could use @calc@ to calculate the years, months, etc.

This is to replace using a similar Moobot variable, that only provides weeks, days, hours, no matter how many years ago the given date and time are.

Feature Requests / Re: way for moderators to control the streamers bot on their pc, to trusted mods!

« on: October 19, 2016, 03:20:14 PM »

I would also like some form of remote access to DeepBot.  The streamer I moderate for is frequently asking for things to be done that we mods simply cannot do from, for example, half way around the world with the limited functionality of !-commands.

Much more functionality in adding and editing commands from chat would be a great, but until then, or in lieu of, a remote access feature would be ideal in allowing me to do more for the streamer.

To add a built-in cooldown to the command...

Code: [Select]

@if@[>=||@calc@[-|@unixtime@|@readfile@[BettingStatsCmdCD.txt]]||15||@savefile@[BettingStatsCmdCD.txt,@unixtime@]Betting Stats: @if@[@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]||||No betting pool currently active.||@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]]||]The cooldown as provided is 15 seconds.  To change the length of the cooldown, edit the command — this can be done via chat, as the command text isn't very long — and change the 15 to whatever you want the cooldown to be.

When this command succeeds, it writes @unixtime@ to the cooldown file, then reads the BettingStats.txt file, as detailed in my original post.  When this command fails, due to still being on cooldown, nothing is output.

NOTE: I am aware there is a cooldown option in the GUI that makes this built-in cooldown unnecessary.  I am providing this built-in cooldown check for chat moderators, such as myself, who do not have access to the GUI.

Guides, Tutorials & Demo Videos / [Guide] Report Betting Stats (Percentages) in Chat

« on: August 23, 2016, 10:54:55 PM »

This is a simple command that can be used as an alternative to displaying betting percentages on-screen via OBS.

NOTE: This command requires a DeepBot VIP subscription as @readfile@ is a VIP variable.

Code: [Select]

Betting Stats: @if@[@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]||||No betting pool currently active.||@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]]
To add this command via chat:

Code: [Select]

!addcmd !bet% Betting Stats: @if@[@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]||||No betting pool currently active.||@readfile@[obs\BettingStats.txt]]Replace !bet% with whatever command you want this to be under.

Now, whenever a user in your chat types the command, they will get the percentages of bets on each option, such as:

[07:36:24] @TheDefiant604: !bet%
[07:36:25] @^RRbot: Betting Stats: 1. A(100%), 2. B(%), 3. C(%)

If nobody started a betting pool, the command will return the following:

[07:39:58] @TheDefiant604: !bet%
[07:39:58] @^RRbot: Betting Stats: No betting pool currently active.

There is actually a prebuilt @weather@ variable which can be used and set up like this:

I know. That's the variable I'm using, at the very end of the @if@ statements that check to see if anything was provided.

On a side note, you also demonstrated the flaw in taking input from the !-command line: cities with more than one word in their name.

Guides, Tutorials & Demo Videos / [Guide] Get Weather for Given Location

« on: August 10, 2016, 10:14:05 AM »

Here's a command I created that can check the weather for a given location, and will return an error if not enough information is provided.

This command consists of two nested @if@ tests, basically looking for a city and country code.

• The first test checks if anything was provided to the command and returns help/about text if nothing was provided.  If a city was provided, it moves on to the second test.
• The second test checks to see if a country code was provided and returns an error if one was not provided.  If a country code was provided, it moves on to providing the weather.

NOTE: This command does not check for the validity of the information provided.  That's up to DeepBot to handle.  Literally anything can be provided, and DeepBot seems to take the first two characters of whatever is provided as the country code if it's unsure.  For example, providing "junk data" to the command seems to have returned weather for somewhere in Denmark, as "DA" is a valid NATO or FIPS 2-letter code for Denmark¹.

Code: [Select]

!addcmd !myweather @if@[@target@[1]||||Get your local weather by providing a city and country code. Example: !myweather Copenhagen DNK||@if@[@target@[2]||||Missing Country Code. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Country_code for codes.||@weather@[@target@[1], @target@[2]]]]
Reference:
1. Country codes: D–E (Wikipedia)

Help/Support / What can be looked up with @lookupinfo@?

« on: August 03, 2016, 08:03:09 PM »

I am wondering what info can be looked up with @lookupinfo@? I don't see any list of l_ variables anywhere.

Specifically, I wonder if it is possible to lookup a user's bet details: how many points bet and what option they bet on.

Awesome!

We have a command to provide a pastebin of ESEA guest passes each day. There's some static text, followed by the current month and day, then the pastebin URL. So far, the other mods got the full text correct each time they updated it, but now we can just use a set-command!

Here's what I did, thanks to what I learned here:

Code: [Select]

!addcmd !setcodes %8 !editcmd !eseacodes ESEA Guest Passes for @datetime@[MMMM dd]: @target@[1]I know !editcmd can only be run by mods, so restricting !setcodes to mods by using %8 is a little redundant, but why take a chance?

Kudos given.
