Help with plugin: Write note to txt file
gargomoma opened this issue · comments
Hi guys, i'm in trouble.
I'm already starting coding, so i don't know if i do it OK.
The deal is that i wanted a plugin that would let my bot to get the "text" (or links) that me and my friends wrote and save them into a .txt file.
I saw few tutorials on the net about how could be possible to do it, but I'm getting stucked.
I always got the same error
./bot/bot.lua:263: attempt to call a nil value
This is the code i wrote, it's based on hello.lua to get the text and notificate it got its. but i don't know how to add the "file" editing part. Tried io.open and os.execute.
This is the code, thanks for your attention. ^^
``local _textPath = "./home/USER/textfile.txt"
do
local file = io.open( _textpath ,"a+")
file:write( ..matches[1].. \n) ----->Don't know if it would be OK like this
file:close()
end
function run(msg, matches)
return "Nota " .. matches[1] .. " añadida."
end
return {
description = "Add [link] to txt file",
usage = "!note [text/link]",
patterns = {
"^!note (.)$",
"^!note (.)$"
},
run = run
}
end
``
I do it dirty but in one line only:
os.execute("echo " ..matches[1].. " >> " _textpath"
or
os.execute("echo " ..msg.text.. " >> " _textpath"
I did it!! 💃
Here you have this template to run any console command
do
function run(msg, matches)
os.execute("nohup COMAND "..matches[1].." </dev/null &>/dev/null &")
return "Added: " .. matches[1]
end
return {
description = "comand",
usage = "comand [argument]",
patterns = {
"^!cmd (.*)$"
},
run = run,
privileged = true
}
end
