Im trying to code a basic irc chatbot using PircBotX. I want to output the chat to a text file and couldn't find a way to do so. I am coding my own and can output the console to a file with lines that look something like this:
13:12:09.110 [botPool0-bot0] INFO org.pircbotx.InputParser - :jdbener!jdbener@jdbener.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #irish_00 :yay
I would like it to write it to the file like this:13:12 < Twitch> Jdbener: yay
Here is the code i have for the writer file:
public class writer extends OutputStream {
public void write(int b) throws IOException {
String Output = String.valueOf((char)b);
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter("output-dirty.txt", true);
writer.append(Output);
writer.close();
testbot.stringB.append(Output);
}
}
If you need anything else let me know and I thank you in advance for your help!
If the questions is how to make this :
13:12:09.110 [botPool0-bot0] INFO org.pircbotx.InputParser - :jdbener!jdbener@jdbener.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #irish_00 :yay
look like this:
13:12 < Twitch> Jdbener: yay
the you can do something like this:
String a = "13:12:09.110 [botPool0-bot0] INFO org.pircbotx.InputParser - :jdbener!jdbener@jdbener.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #irish_00 :yay";
String[] b = a.split(":");
String c = b[0] + ":" +
b[1] +
"<Twitch>" +
b[3].split("!")[0].replace(b[3].split("!")[0].charAt(0), Character.toUpperCase(b[3].split("!")[0].charAt(0))) +
": " +
b[b.length - 1];
Testing with System.out.println(c);
will output: 13:12<Twitch>Jdbener: yay
Of course i am assuming there is some consistency with the original String
. If the answer doesn't work very well then paste some more example input Strings
and will update the answer.
