NAME
irchal-seed - Creates a MegaHAL training file from logs generated by POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::Logger or irssi.
SYNOPSIS
irchal-seed <options>
Options:
-f FORMAT, --format=NAME Log format (pocoirc or irssi)
-c CASE, --case=CASE The IRC server's case mapping
-b NICK, --bot=NICK The nickname of the IRC bot
-r RX --ignore-regex=RX A regex for lines to ignore
-n NICK, --ignore-nick=NICK A nickname to ignore
-h, --help Print this help message
-v, --version Print version number
Input is accepted on STDIN, and output is delivered to STDOUT.
You should use the --bot
option if your bot was present when the channel was logged as it will strip the "botname: " part from messages where users addressed the bot.
If your bot (or any other bot in the channel) can take commands that all start in a similar way, use the --ignore-regex
option to ignore those lines, e.g. --ignore-regex='^!\w+'
for bots that react to commands prefixed with '!'.
Example:
# convert irssi log, ignoring "MyBot: " and lines with URLs
cat ~/logs/\#chan.log | irchal-seed -f irssi -b MyBot -r '\w+://\w' > megahal.trn
The --case
option controls the second parameter passed to lc_irc
from IRC::Utils. The default is 'rfc1459'. You usually don't have to change this. Consult that package's documentation for more information.
