theBot = ircCreateBot ( "DummyBot" )
ircConnect ( theBot, "irc.gtanet.com", 6667 )
end
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource() ), resourceStart )
function event_ircOnConnect ( theBot )
setTimer ( ircJoinChannel, 2000, 1, theBot, "#testchannel" )
end
function event_ircOnText ( theBot, channel, sender, message )
if message:find( "!ban" ) then
local params = split ( message, string.byte (' ') )
-- params[1] has the string "!ban" which we don't need
-- params[2] has the user name
if ircIsInChannel ( theBot, channel, params[2] ) then
local userHost = ircGetUserHost ( theBot, params[2] )
if userHost then -- if user host was successfully received
local hostMask = ircFormatHost ( params[2] .. "!" .. userHost )
if hostMask then -- and if formatting was successful
ircSetChannelMode ( theBot, channel, "+b " .. hostMask )
end
