RSS Feed Reader for eggdrop

By FordLawnmower on Feb 16, 2013

Gathers results from rss feed pages and returns them to the channel.
Partyline Commands:

  • .rss (Returns a list of commands and syntax)
  • .rss list (Returns the list of feeds being checked by the bot.)
  • .rss add <#chan1,#chan2,#chan3> (Adds a feed)
  • .rss addxml <#chan1,#chan2,#chan3> (Adds a xml style feed - Try this if you have trouble with a feed.)
  • .rss delete (Deletes a feed)
  • .rss info (Returns info about a feed)

Syntax/Example:

.rss add #Hawkee,#mIRC hawkee \002\00307,14H\00301,14awkee\017 http://www.hawkee.com/comment.rss.php?tool_type=snippet_id 
  • Channels can only be separated by only a comma. (No Spaces)
  • is used for indexing, is case sensitive and must be one continuous string (No Spaces) If you add a feed by a name already in use, it will overwrite the original. This is useful if you want to edit a feed to change the logo.
  • Can contain a mix of characters and color codes but must be one continuous string. (No Spaces) Will be displayed at the start of each result.
  • Must be a valid link to a rss page.

Works great in 2017 too :)
Just need some changes like, adding
package require tls
package require http
if needed, and change on line 223 where
http::register https 443 tls::socket
to

if { [info exists {my-ip}] == 1 && [string length ${my-ip}] > 0} {
  http::register https 443 [list tls::socket -myaddr ${my-ip} -tls1 1]
} elseif { [info exists {my-hostname}] == 1 && [string length ${my-hostname}] > 0} {
  http::register https 443 [list tls::socket -myaddr ${my-hostname} -tls1 1]
} else {
  http::register https 443 [list tls::socket -tls1 1]
}

Hi Ford:

I have been using this script and noticed that when adding a feed via addxml, it works flawlessly. However, when trying to add another via feed via plain add (which, as per my my understanding, loads the feed via google apis) the script is added, but no updates at all are sent to the channel. Is it possible that the parsing for the main function is broken?

revaNplays  -  Feb 26, 2015

Yea mine does the same :S Got any fix?

My feed is the following http://www.reddit.com/r/TheRealmOfMianite/new.rss yet all I can get it to post is on startup it shows
" Reddit newest submissions : TheRealmOfMianite http://www.reddit.com/r/TheRealmOfMianite/"

What am I doing wrong?

Hi

Thanks for your work man :)

I tried it and it's work only for .rss addxml

But my Q is:

Can I make a delay between rss message?

When I start the bot it's bring all the news from all rss feed I add.. it's spam really.. I could delay when it's start to bring the news but when it start it won't stop until he bring it all

This script work great for an high up time computer or for a server.. but with my regular computer how disconnect once every day it's spam really :(

If you could make an option to make a delay between rss feed message.. or make the script bring only last 3 rss feed and start bring any new one after that.. it would be greaat

Anyway I must thank you very much for all your work.. I said it and say it again.. you are the master :)

Regards,

Libbard

For some strange reason this feed stops/starts/stops/starts posting to the channel. I have it type 2:http://feeds.marketwatch.com/marketwatch/realtimeheadlines. When you get a chance could you look and see what the problem might be.

Can't seem to get this feed to work...

rssreader::main {#options [Market-Pulse] http://www.marketwatch.com/rss/marketpulse}

FordLawnmower  -  Feb 26, 2013

I tested that feed and it worked fine. You need to use the xml parser. .rss addxml

Updated typo

rinzes  -  Feb 26, 2013

Updated script and did not get any errors however not getting any posts.. This is the only change I did to your script:

Edit textf to change the color/state of the text shown

variable textf "\017\02"

Edit linkf to change the color/state of the links

variable linkf "\017\0312"

this is what is inside the dalnetrssreader.hsh file:

long=rssreader::main {#stocktrader [4Long-Ideas] http://seekingalpha.com/tag/long-ideas.xml}
mktpulse=rssreader::main {#stocktrader [4Market-Pulse] http://feeds.marketwatch.com/marketwatch/marketpulse/}

FordLawnmower   -  Feb 18, 2013

Just updated this script. If you are using the original version.

  • Delete all feeds (".rss list" -- Then ".rss delete name" for each name in the list)
  • Replace the old code with the new code
  • ".restart" in the party line
  • Add feeds with .rss add

Sorry for the large update. It was needed to adapt the script for different types of feeds.

rinzes   -  Feb 17, 2013

I'm also getting lots of repeats

FordLawnmower  -  Feb 18, 2013

@rinzes If you are having trouble with a feed, please post the feed link here so I can look at it. RSS pages are highly subjective because lots of feeds like to take the Simple out and replace it with Complicated.
Edit ** Added a command to use a second parser. If you have trouble with a feed try .rss addxml instead of .rss add

  • .rss addxml <#chan1,#chan2,#chan3> (Adds a xml style feed - Try this if you have trouble with a feed.)

Looks like I need to find a better CodeMirror mode for TCL syntax highlighting. There isn't one available so I need to find the closest match.

FordLawnmower  -  Feb 18, 2013

@Hawkee I could try making one if you point me to the closest match to start with.

Hawkee  -  Feb 18, 2013

@FordLawnmower Try this: http://codemirror.net/demo/loadmode.html You can paste your code here and play with the different modes. I'm currently using perl for TCL, but it's not quite right as we can see. If you want to create a new mode I'd download the entire library, install it locally, copy the best match and modify it.

FordLawnmower  -  Feb 19, 2013

I'll take a look at the api and get started as soon as I finish the script I working on now.

CadetAndrew  -  Apr 21, 2014

Little confused on how this should work. It's supposed to check the RSS feeds every so often (specified in the conf file) and then post them to the channel, correct?

I tried .rss addxml #AWPWX hunchat HUNCHAT http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/iembot-rss/wfo/khun.xml, it said the feed was added but it hasn't been posting in #AWPWX. The code remains unchanged except for the variables I am supposed to edit. I have it check the feeds every minute. http://pastie.org/9096753
