[RELEASED] @mention notification bot - now with Telegram

[asche]

@piggy

Thank you

FYI when I wrote to the bot, he detected my username had a space in it which it doesn't, maybe some logic issue in the code?

I'll also give 1 merit to your bot account so that it eventually becomes member

Thanks.

I just checked now, it picked up your telegram message so you should receive this.

It did indeed

About the testing, it seems like your bot missed this post:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5057612.msg47291273#msg47291273

Any clue @piggy?

Thank you

[Piggy]

Unless the message was edited and the mention added later, should havse picked it up indeed, it seems a pretty straight case.
There may have been even some timeout internally and the message slipped away by the time everything went back to normal, there may be some clue in the log file.
I'll look into it @asche

Sure No issue to me, just thought you might want to have a look at it for further debugging/enhancement

Ok it doesn't work for @asche while it's working for others.
BTW is there a feature to notif all subscribers to il maggiordomo? like @all or something else?
I guess we receive notifications from users even if they are in our bitcointalk ignore list... so is there a feature for blocking notification of someone in particular?

PS: BTW I read @asche has changed some options like enabling telegram notification

[Piggy]

@asche is receiving his notifications just on telegram so you cannot see them, but he should be receiving them.

At the moment there no options to notify all the people at once ( you need to name each of them) or to filter out mentions from certain people.

You can find the instructions to set up telegram in the first post of this thread if needed.

I can't seem to have both notifications as I thought would be possible from your instructions.

Is this on purpose or a bug?

[Saint-loup]

@piggy When I put another alias it replaces the older one.
It's not possible to get several aliases? like saintloup, saint_loup and saint loup ?
Thank you



PS : The bot doesn't seem to manage punctuation like commas correctly
I didn't get notification for this post

@Saint-Loup,

Oui l'ICO a été notée sur ICOBench par exemple avec une note de 4.8/5

I deactivated that option and forgot to mention it, now simply try first to send the notification through telegram, if succeed, it doesn't send the notification in the thread to avoid redundancy.

This is something i can look into it. Anyway at the moment you can use just one alias and will work unless it collides with the username of another user registered with the bot.

To be sure to receive a notification the mention need to be between two empty spaces because in here you are allowed to have many strange characters in the usernames, it may be the comma is allowed as well, so to make things easier i decided to go that way (and also for performance reason without entering into roo much detail s).

In any case i may look into this as well since many people put a comma right after the name.

How about a check for if removing the first/last character of the string will result in the alias?

Make it 3.

example:

This fucking actmyname...

[Piggy]

At the moment i'm looking for a pattern " @username/alias " or " username/alias " with space in the begin and in the end, i can change it easily to space or ", " (comma + space) in the end.

I have just to make sure there are no cases where can cause some misbehaviour, because the comma can be part of they username as well or pheraps not anymore? I see there are usernames that have it.

On the other end i cannot think of a case where there would be two users registered where one has the username "user" and the other has "user," other than for trolling somebody

[babo]

stats of usage of bot?
i think is useful

if you have spare time is interesting to see
- number of parsed message
- number of mentions
- number of telegram messages

At the moment i'm looking for a pattern " @username/alias " or " username/alias " with space in the begin and in the end, i can change it easily to space or ", " (comma + space) in the end.

That that mean a username followed by a "dot" or anything else than a comma gets ignored? Like when I ask this question @Piggy?

@Piggy

Yes i can add something like that in the second post of this thread where all the users are listed. At the moment i'm not counting anything in particular unfortunately.

Yes, at the moment the username need to be included between spaces to trigger the notification, this was done to work in a general way as "?" "." and "," can be included in the username so Piggy and Piggy? could actually be two different users, but as i was saying before the chances of this happening are quite small.

I will add some special cases for the end characters like "?" "." and "," so cases where somebody writes (also without @): @user? or @user. " or @user, would still notify user

[Piggy]

I made some of the changes discussed above, this below is some example of what trigger the notifications at and what doesn't:

What trigger a notification (the " are just there tho show the empty spaces around it):

" @user "

" @user* "

where * is any character, this should fix all the missing notifications where "," "." "?" or anything else is used right after the username.

If @user is in the begin or end of the message will just require an empty space onn the opposite side, all these combinations below works (and also the variant with a random character in the end *):

"@user hello how are you?"

"hello you are @user" 

"hello @user
how are you?"

Working example:

@asche! @actmyname? @Loyce( test ) @babo.

This won't work:

@Halab?, @TomCrypto... @Piggy(test)
