00:51 <leftylink> let's say I have a plugin that matches "foo" and "bar", and now I would like to match anything that is not "foo" or "bar". should I... 1) match /(?!foo|bar)/ 2) rewrite everything to match any message and in the handler say "if foo do this, else if bar, do this, else do that" 3) some way to say "hey once you've found one match, you don't need to do any other matches, thanks!"? I don't know of a way to do 3) though

07:42 <dominikh> leftylink: matches can be part of a group. In a group, only the first matching matcher will be executed. groups have plugin scope

07:42 <leftylink> ooh this is exciting

12:49 <sarkyniin> hey

12:50 <sarkyniin> match /^(!|@)asbot$/i, method: :asbot_commands

12:50 <sarkyniin> match /^(!|@)asbot (.+)$/i, method: :asbot_commandhelp

12:50 <sarkyniin> nothing wrong with this match, right?

12:50 <sarkyniin> cinch isn't doing anything when I'm typing "!asbot" in my channel

12:50 <sarkyniin> not even opening a new thread or anything

12:51 <dominikh> have you changed/disabled the default prefix for matchers?

12:51 <sarkyniin> yeah

12:52 <sarkyniin> wait, the matches need to be at the top of the plugin, right?

12:52 <sarkyniin> I had an initialize before, haha

12:52 <sarkyniin> wait nope

12:52 <sarkyniin> that's not the problem

12:53 <dominikh> show the whole file then

12:53 <sarkyniin> https://gist.github.com/8642b7d62a1dcdd97cf8

12:53 <sarkyniin> warning: messy code incoming

12:54 <dominikh> where are you changing the default prefix?

12:54 <dominikh> in the bot config?

12:54 <sarkyniin> in my configure block

12:54 <sarkyniin> in the main bot file

12:54 <sarkyniin> c.plugins.prefix = ""

12:54 <dominikh> you'll want //, not ""

12:54 <sarkyniin> it worked before so eh

12:54 <sarkyniin> changed it anyway

12:55 <dominikh> "" will translate to /^/

12:55 <sarkyniin> oh

12:55 <dominikh> yes, poor design, but we're stuck with that for Cinch 2 :)

12:55 <sarkyniin> hm, issue is still there

12:55 <sarkyniin> :/

12:56 <dominikh> you'll want to show me the log then, that of startup and that of when you try to invoke the command

12:57 <dominikh> I'll be back in ~10 minutes

12:58 <sarkyniin> dominikh: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Sarkynin/937209b6b299479d5d45/raw/4d22ea1af18ddcf1db616c4de1f6188d516166b0/gistfile1.txt

12:58 <sarkyniin> oh, okay

12:59 <sarkyniin> anyway, at the very bottom of the file

12:59 <sarkyniin> you can see me entering the command, but nothing happening

12:59 <dominikh> are you sure you did not forget to add the plugin to c.plugins.plugins? looking at the "registering executor" lines, there's none mentioning the word asbot

13:00 <dominikh> (nor the word help, the name of the plugin)

13:00 <sarkyniin> well

13:00 <sarkyniin> require_relative './plugins/help-plugin'

13:00 <sarkyniin> is in my file

13:00 <sarkyniin> and this

13:00 <sarkyniin> c.plugins.plugins = [SpeedPlugin, ASBMovePlugin, ASBStatsPlugin, ASBilityPlugin, ASBItemPlugin, ASBNaturePlugin, ASBTypePlugin, RollPlugin, BlamePlugin, NoPlugin, QuotesPlugin, ProfilePlugin, ComboPlugin, HelpPlugin]

13:01 <dominikh> your initialize method needs to call super

13:01 <dominikh> in the plugin.

13:01 <sarkyniin> oh

13:01 <dominikh> anyway, back in 10

13:01 <sarkyniin> thanks

13:03 <sarkyniin> yeah, that fixed it

13:14 <catepillar> i made that mistake

13:14 <catepillar> more than once

16:02 <Dwarf> is there a way to ignore people so that it does not trigger events?

16:02 <dominikh> not without writing that logic yourself

16:02 <Dwarf> A shame

16:04 <Dwarf> Currently I have "return unless Ignore.first(host: m.user.host).nil?" but that obviously still triggers it. Not sure if that's a performance hit or not

16:05 <dominikh> I really doubt that performance hit matters. there's far more inefficient things in Cinch ;)

16:07 <Dwarf> Great

16:08 <Dwarf> I saw my bot got invited to a trivia channel and currently it listens to all messages, that's why I was wondering

16:08 <dominikh> how many messages per second are you receiving in that channel?

16:09 <Dwarf> One or two maybe

16:09 <Dwarf> It's not that severe

16:09 <dominikh> that's not exactly many ;)

16:09 <dominikh> so yeah, don't worry about it

16:09 <Dwarf> Hmm, I should add channel blacklisting to my bot tho

16:35 <onewheelskyward> Or disable auto-join on public invite. :)

16:36 <Dwarf> Well that defeats the whole purpose of ever coding that feature

16:36 <onewheelskyward> It's a preference for sure.
