Play File Script

Er, I could write one like that in like 5 minutes for python. Although I don't like the time idea - Why not use a set-able timer? Like you can set it to run in 1h, 1d, etc. Not everybody is in the same timezone and the bot might not share the same timezone as your users either

It's not very advanced and I threw it together in a like an hour. The filenames are case sensitive and must be in the files folder. Also it doesn't auto-identify the bot either. What it does do is play files to a channel

The syntax is pretty simple:
!play filename (time) (channel)

Note that I made the time and channel optional. If you include time, it will play the file in the current channel after a set amount of time. If you include a channel name, it will play to that channel after the set amount of time.

The time formatting is also as follows:
s = second
h = hour
d = day
w = week

so 10s means the bot will play the file after 10 seconds and 1h means it will play it after 1 hours.

I may make it more advanced by making the filename's case not matter and actually checking the variables before trying to play the file or start the timer

Well, it puts out 5 lines a second (intentional limit - it can be altered). This might be a bit much for some anti-flooding scripts. Also, did you try op'ing the bot in the channel? It needs access to +m and -m to set it.

Anyway, to make the output delay longer, just change line 16 in playbot.py from:

Code (python):

            time.sleep(0.2)

to something like:

Code (python):

            time.sleep(0.5)

to make it output only 2 lines a second or even:

Code (python):

            time.sleep(1)

to make it output a line a second

Also use a proper text editor like notepad++ to edit it on Windows

Well, there is the Right way and then there is the Lazy way.
I'll do it in the lazy way:
Open ircbot.py and go to line 79 and change:

Code (python):

    if msg[1] == "005":
        for x in CHANNELS:
 

to:

Code (python):

    if msg[1] == "005":
        msg("NickServ", "identify PasswordHere")
        for x in CHANNELS:
 

Change PasswordHere to the right password and save. Now it should auto-identify when it connects.

EDIT: Considering it's QuakeNet, you may want to change NickServ to the right services name too (I think it's X).

maybe:

Code (python):

        msg("Q@CServe.quakenet.org", "AUTH PasswordHere")

I don't know Q or QuakeServ, but the identification method should be EXACTLY the same one you use when you try identifying.

There is no real scripting help for this. I wrote this IRC framework and other examples might not be useful
