IdleRPG bot login automation with WeeChat

Log in when joining the channel

/trigger addreplace libera_idlerpg_login_join signal libera,irc_in2_353 "${text} =~ ^. #idlerpg :(.+ )?@idlebot( |$)" "" "/msg -server ${server} idlebot login user password"

Log in when idlebot gains +o

This does not handle e.g. a previously opped idlebot_ changing its nickname to idlebot.

This also does not handle a mode command with multiple modes.

/trigger addreplace libera_idlerpg_login_op signal libera,irc_in2_mode "${channel} == #idlerpg && ${text} == +o idlebot" "" "/msg -server ${server} idlebot login user password"

Hide the password

/set irc.look.nicks_hide_password nickserv,idlebot

/trigger addreplace idlerpg_password modifier "5000|irc_message_auth" "" "==^(login +[^ ]+ +|register +[^ ]+ +|newpass +)([^ ]+)(.*)==${re:1}${hide:*,${re:2}}${re:3}"

After trying to figure out how to adopt the code to use on IdleRPG on another server, I'm posting this updated generalized login when joining channel in case it helps anyone else:

command:¹

/trigger addreplace IRPG_TRIGGER signal SERVER,irc_in2_353 "${text} =~ ^. CHANNEL :(.+ )?OP_BOT( |!|$)" "" "/msg -server ${server} BOT login IRPG_USER IRPG_PASS"

variable	purpose
IRPG_TRIGGER	trigger name
SERVER	name you gave server (with /server add command)
CHANNEL	name of #idlerpg channel
OP_BOT	name of idlerpg bot; append op ranking2
BOT	name of idlerpg bot
IRPG_USER	user name used when you created idlerpg account3
IRPG_PASS	password used when you created idlerpg account3

^{note 1:} when looking for the idlebot libera only report nick, but some servers report nick!name@address so the command was updated to handle such situations
^{note 2:} I encountered different op status on the idlerpg bots, which translated to &:&@, @:@, %:%
^{note 3:} you can and may want to use secured data for these fields

And if all else fails, use:

/trigger watch IRPG_TRIGGER

to see what the trigger's parsing so that you can try to modify it to work for you
