The current output is hard-coded into scripts/relay.rb, which I find sub-optimal or multiple use-cases where I want a non-standard output format. I would like to suggest a configurable output.
The current code to generate output is as follows:
def generate_raw type, dest, network, channel, nick, text = '', misc = ''
prefix = message_prefix network, channel
case type
when :message
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} <\02#{nick}\02> #{text}"
when :action
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} * \02#{nick}\02 #{text}"
when :join
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} --> \02#{nick}\02 has joined \02#{channel}\02"
when :part
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} <-- \02#{nick}\02 has left \02#{channel}\02"
when :kick
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} <-- \02#{misc}\02 has has been kicked from \02#{channel}\02 by \02#{nick}\02 (#{text})"
when :quit
"PRIVMSG #{dest} :#{prefix} <-- \02#{nick}\02 has quit (#{text})"
end
end
A simple format specifier to replace this would be a wonderful addition. Of course, the current formats would be kept as defaults.
An example config block for relay.rb post-change is as follows. Compatibility with the current show_prefix option MUST be maintained at the current time.
relay = {
prefix_format = "[&network&:&channel&]"
message_format = "&prefix& \x02<&nick&>\x02 &message&"
action_format = "&prefix& * \x02&nick&\x02 &message&"
join_format = "&prefix& --> \x02&nick&\x02 has joined \x02&channel&\x02"
part_format = "&prefix& <-- \x02&nick&\x02 has parted \x02&channel&\x02"
kick_format = "&prefix& <-- \x02&kicked&\x02 has been kicked from \x02&channel&\x02 by \x02&kicker&\x02"
quit_format = "&prefix& <-- \x02&nick&\x02 has quit (&quit_text&)"
}
