IRC-Bot in Ruby: PRIVMSG sends only last word of string
- by Marius Schuller
I'm on learning ruby and I took a already done IRC-Bot from the web which just connects to a given serven and not much more.
Then I added some features (in my case I try to implement a voting where to eat lunch).
Now these work fine so far but I don't know if the ruby script does something wrong or there is something wrong with the IRC-server.
On the one I tested the Bot it worked well, giving an output like this:
09:14 < Wayne> !EssNA
09:14 < EssNABot> [-=EssNA-Vote=-]
09:14 < EssNABot> Options are:
09:14 < EssNABot> McDonalds. 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Currywurst 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Hendl..... 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Salatbar.. 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Griechr... 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Metzger... 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Merowinger 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Lidl...... 0
09:14 < EssNABot> Voting time is 600 seconds.
The bot itself sees that like this:
--> PRIVMSG #test [-=EssNA-Vote=-]
--> PRIVMSG #test Options are:
--> PRIVMSG #test McDonalds. 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Currywurst 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Hendl..... 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Salatbar.. 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Griechr... 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Metzger... 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Merowinger 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Lidl...... 0
--> PRIVMSG #test Voting time is 600 seconds.
But on the irc which it should run on if its done the output users will see looks like this:
09:14 < Wayne> !EssNA
09:14 < EssNABot> [-=EssNA-Vote=-]
09:14 < EssNABot> are:
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> 0
09:14 < EssNABot> seconds.
The output the bot gives is the same as on the server on which the output for users works.
Seems to me that the problem is the IRC-server, maybe someone can point me in the right direction?
Yours,
Marius
