However, I still don't know what I should be pulling from the link Code: https://decapi.me/twitch/followers?channel=CHANNELNAMEHERE It shows the last follower, so I know that I would have to: -Repeatedly check the site (every 10-20 seconds if possible) -Save the name/follower to a variable (probably a text/ini file as well to prevent spamming) -Check the variable (%recentfollow) return -Check the file ($readini(followers.ini,n,#,%newfollower)) return -if neither of those are true then msg $chan with that user being the new follower My problem is mainly that I get frustrated quickly trying to learn this stuff... I know most of the basic stuff, but sockets and everything just, get to me. Last edited by Bramzee; 01/04/17 12:55 AM.

For anyone in the future that cares or needs this...

Code:

 on *:text:!alerts*:#: {
  if ($nick == OWNER) {
    if ($2 == on) {
      .timerFollowAlert 0 60 followalert
      msg # In chat alerts have been started.
      set %AlertsOn 1
      unset %AlertsOff
    }
    if ($2 == off) {
      .timerFollowAlert off
      msg # In chat alerts have been stopped.
      set %AlertsOff 1
      unset %AlertsOn
    }
    else return
  }
  else return
}

alias followalert {
  sockopen -e newfollower decapi.me 443
}


on *:SOCKOPEN:*: {
  if ($sockname == newfollower) {
    sockwrite -nt $sockname GET /twitch/followers.php?channel=CHANNEL_NAME_HERE HTTP/1.1
    sockwrite -nt $sockname Host: decapi.me
    sockwrite $sockname $crlf
  }
}

on *:SOCKREAD:*: {
  if ($sockname == newfollower) {
    var %newfollower
    sockread %newfollower
    while ($sockbr) {
      sockread %newfollower
    }
  }
  else return
}

on *:sockclose:*: {
  if ($sockname == newfollower) {
    var %newfollower
    sockread -f %newfollower
    if ($readini(followers.ini,#CHANNEL_NAME_HERE,%newfollower)) {
      return
    }
    else {
      msg #CHANNEL_NAME_HERE Welcome to the the family, %newfollower $+ !!!
      /writeini followers.ini #CHANNEL_NAME_HERE %newfollower 1
    }
  }
}

Also, that being said... If any of the more experienced users have ways of making this cleaner/better let me know. I'm not gonna lie, I got the script from OrFeAsGr - HERE and switched things out to get followers rather than uptime. Thanks OrFeAsGr.

I'm just curious. Every now and then someone will follow at just the right time causing a 60 second delay on the alert to trigger.
