I am trying to code a simple irc bot that detects if a word is inside a chat message and then saves that message to a file. I have the correct 'on text' event set up, but I don't know how to access the message that was sent so I can save it.
on *:TEXT:*txt*:#:
{
var %message $msg
writeini Log.ini Message value %message
}
$msg is clearly wrong. Is there an identifier to have my bot access the messages in the chat, or is there a completely different way to do this? I can't seem to find anything online about this either.

I'm using Firebase Messaging to send out notifications to users of my iPhone app. My database is structured like this:
- Users
- user1
- user2
- Groups
- group1
- members
- user1
- user2
When a user joins a group they get subscribed to a topic corresponding to that group. I have a cloud function that listens for writes in that group, and sends a notification to the groups topic when a write happens:
exports.sendNotifs = functions.database
.ref('pets/{petId}/events/{eventId}').onWrite(event => {
const pet_Id = event.params.petId;
const payload = {
'notification': {
'title': `${toTitleCase(name)} just logged an event`,
'body': `${events[eventType]} for ${toTitleCase(petName)}`,
'sound': 'default',
}
};
admin.messaging().sendToTopic(pet_Id, payload);
});
However, this results in everybody getting a notification including the person who did the write that triggered the notification. I only want other people in the group to display a notification since the triggering user doesn't need to see one. I tried appending the sending user's uid as extra data of the notification and only displaying the notification if the recieving user's uid doesn't match the notification data's uid. This works when the application is in the foreground but not if its in the background, so if the user writes then closes the application before he receives the notification it'll display for him when he receives it, something I'm trying to avoid.
How can I make sure only other members of a group get a notification? Are messaging topics not good for this?
If you use Topics it's not possible to send to everyone except one.
If you are Ok sending to everyone, and then filtering on the client, you will need to use the data messages, and not notification messages, to avoid the problem with background/foreground you described.
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/concept-options
i guess that the solution is:
each iOS client from group1 will subscribe to topic /topics/group1.selfUserId
the server already have the list with all users that are part of group1
the iOS client ask server to send notification to group1.members beside selfUserId (make a http post request)
server send gets all group1.members beside selfUserId and send notification to all /topics/group1.memberX
As already mentioned, you cannot exclude someone who has been registered to a Topic.
So what you can do is sending a message to a single device. So for example you have a group of ten persons, one person posts a message, you have to send nine single messages to the other nine persons of the group.
What you need to do is to store the registration token of every single user into your database and you have to take into account that registration tokens will change after some time.
If I have sent a few messages in my iMessage app and I want to access previous messages (obviously just my own app-created messages, not just any messages the users have sent in their conversation), is there a way I can do that?
I can access the most previous message with this:
[self activeConversation].selectedMessage;
Any way to loop through previous messages that might not have even ever been clicked by the user (so simply storing it in user defaults is not an option)
There is no way to do this. Apple considers this to be a security/privacy issue.
Using a production key on Mandrill I am attempting to send an email. Previously this has worked without issue. However now, despite receiving a successful response from the API, visible in the api log, no email is being sent, and nothing is present in the outbound activity log.
If I check the api log for the message which appeared to fail it displays:
[
{
"email": [email_address],
"status": "sent",
"_id": [id],
"reject_reason": null
}
]
Replacing the id in the content view of a sent email, with the id from a failed one displays a correctly formatted email:
e.g. https://mandrillapp.com/activity/content?id=20151214_[put_the_id_here]
Is this a bug? What is causing it? Where can I see more information about what happened? How can I monitor if this happens again in the future? How can I prevent it from happening in the future?
I have been in contact with Mandrill support regarding the issue, which they described as 'very strange indeed'. Deleting the API key and generating a new one fixed the issue, but there is no explanation as to why this is they case, how to detect the problem, or how to stop it from happening again in the future.
The messages in question were never actually sent by Mandrill, and displayed no SMTP events, despite reporting as sent by their API
Something else to check is to make sure you're using a working API key instead of a test one. As the name suggests, test keys are designed to work just like a regular key, so the feedback to your program will be identical, but the messages won't actually be sent.
You can see if this is the problem by going to the Mandrill settings and looking at the list of API keys. Test keys have a very clear This is a test key message listed.
This probably won't be an issue if you generated the key yourself, but if you inherited this project it's worth taking a look.
I have faced a similar issue like this last week. The "sent" status only indicates that Mandrill sent it. But reception of the email message is confirmed only if there is a SMTP event corresponding to it with code starting with 2, (example 250 etc), in the info api response, like the following:
"smtp_events": [
{
"ts": 1442448422,
"type": "sent",
"diag": "250 SmtpThread-4622542-14682902148#ps-they-19.uk.miplecast.lan Received OK",
"source_ip": "505.207.171.171",
"destination_ip": "705.139.255.221",
"size": 29501
}
check this link for more info.
https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582697-How-to-Confirm-If-an-Email-Was-Actually-Delivered
the issue could be on the recipient server as well, due which delivery could be delayed. In our experience last week, the message was delivered 4 hours after being Sent. we were not able to establish the reason yet why, this delay happened.
HTH,
I'm using sinch and I've gotten the client to work by registering a user, but I can't send a message. When I click my send button, nothing happens. The required methods that need to be implemented, such as messageFailed(), messageDelivered(), etc. are not being called either. Does anyone know why?
Have you registered the one more user? Can you enable logging and share the full log output.
See comment below, user tried to send message to self
I am facing a little problem with Transport.send(msg) function of Blackberry API. In my application i need to send a sound file. But I want to know what happens if the device loses connectivity in middle of sending the email.
I tried to enclose the Transport.send(msg) call within try catch block but it never throws exception even if i manually turn off the wifi from the device while the file is being sent.If by any chance email could not be sent i want to show the user a Dialog saying that email could not be sent.
Kindly help.

You can catch SendFailedException which is thrown when a message cannot be sent.
You can monitor the messages by calling getStatus() on a message which should return you the values given here
