Why won't my socket connection work? #247348 31/07/14 01:01 AM

I've looked at multiple different examples of how to write a socket but nothing seems to be working. My code looks like this: Code: on :TEXT:!uptime:#:{ sockclose utSocket sockopen utSocket www.nightdev.com 80 } on :sockopen:utSocket:{ if ($sockerr) { sockclose utSocket \| halt } sockwrite -n utSocket GET /hosted/uptime.php?channel=STREAM_NAME HTTP/1.1 sockwrite -n utSocket Host: www.nightdev.com sockwrite utSocket $crlf } on :sockread:utSocket:{ var %read sockread -f %read msg # Stream has been running for %read . sockclose utSocket } www.nightdev.com/hosted/uptime.php?channel=STREAM_NAME will just display text of the running time of whatever stream is put in the URL in place of STREAM_NAME, which is exactly what I want. Does anyone know what the problem is? Is there anything else that needs to be done when making a socket or am I missing something here? Last edited by VidyaJames; 31/07/14 01:03 AM.

Also, you want to set an if statement and not use msg %chan %read - as this will spam the channel with irrelevant stuff. Nillens @ irc.twitch.tv Nillen @ irc.rizon.net

Code:

on *:text:!uptime*:#:{
  set -u10 %target $iif($2,$2,$mid(#,2-))
  set -u10 %channel #
  uptime 
}

alias uptime {
  sockclose uptime
  sockopen uptime nightdev.com 80
}

on *:sockopen:uptime:{
  if ($sockerr) { sockclose $sockname | halt }
  sockwrite -n $sockname GET /hosted/uptime.php?channel= $+ %target HTTP/1.1
  sockwrite -n $sockname Host: www.nightdev.com 
  sockwrite -n $sockname $crlf
}

on *:sockread:uptime:{
  if ($sockerr) { sockclose $sockname }
  var %data
  sockread %data
  tokenize 32 %data
  if ($1 isnum) && ($2) { msg %channel %target has been online for $1- }
  elseif (%data == The channel is not live.) msg %channel %target is currently not online.
}

Untested but should work.
