; Using this on TEXT event we can react to users who ; write !status in your channel. Do not forget to replace #your-channel ; with your actual channel on *:text:!status:#your-channel:{ ; We store the channel's name in a variable so we know where to send ; the replies to. set %radiochan $chan ; Open a connection to the radio's web-server. ; Replace 'your-radio.example.org' with your radio's host ; and 8000 with its actual port. sockopen getsong your-radio.example.org 8000 } ; The webserver has accepted our connection attempt. on *:SOCKOPEN:getsong: { ; We will now send a simple HTTP request to collect statistics about the radio. sockwrite -n $sockname GET /7 HTTP/1.0 sockwrite -n $sockname User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko sockwrite -n $sockname } ; This gets triggered when the webserver replies to our HTTP request. on *:SOCKREAD:getsong: { ; Read a single line from the response and store it in %sctext sockread %sctext ; While there's still remaining data in the response... while ($sockbr) { ; ... read it ... sockread -f %sctext ; and append it to %a var %a = %a %sctext } ; Check whether we've found the right line in the response ; The line should be like <html><body>information about the stream</body></html> if (<body> isin %a) { ; Extract the information from %a ; .echo -q will tell mirc not to show the result of $regex .echo -q $regex(%a, /<body>(.*)</body>/) ; Use /msg to tell the users about the stream's status. if (%radiochan) { msg %radiochan $regml(1) } } }
