Title: Extract Clan Tags from Nick-Name
Post by: rulk on September 07, 2009, 11:42:37 pm

Hya guys,

This is my version of extracting the clan tag from a players name.

It uses mIRC's regex engine and is pretty fast because strings are cached before using them.

Code: [Select]

; -----------USAGE----------
; //echo -a $FindClanTag([MK]rulk)
;
; Tags Covered:
; [MK] (MK) =MK= ^MK^ <MK> -MK-
;
; Note: Combinations are also valid.
; --------------------------

alias FindClanTag {
  var %HasTag = $regex( $1, /([[(=^<-]+\w+.[])=^>-]+)/ )
  if (%HasTag > 0) return $regml(1)
}


Some superb regex tutorials and one hour tests can be found at #regex on the undernet network "irc.undernet.org"

alternatively, you might find reading THIS WEBSITE (http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html) beneficial

I have enjoyed using both methods and can be found taking the regex tests quite regularly, if you need any assistance in breaking down this particular expression, don't hesitate to ask me.

Hope this helps you guys.

Kind Regards

Hya guys,

Here is an update on the clan tag extraction using mIRC's regex engine.

It now covers both single and double delimiter clan tags (apologies to ULK. for excluding them)

I have decided not to couple both expressions into one, to eliminate confusion for beginners.

I recommend that unless this update is needed you stick with the one in the first post.

Code: [Select]

; -----------USAGE----------
; //echo -a $FindClanTag([MK]rulk)
;
; Tags Covered: (Double Delimiter)
; [MK] (MK) =MK= ^MK^ <MK> -MK-
;
; Tags Covered: (Single Delimiter)
; ULK. ULK_ ULK=
;
; Note: Combinations are also valid for double delimiter tags.
; Note: Combinations are NOT valid for single delimiter tags
; --------------------------

alias FindClanTag {
  var %Double_Delim = $regex( D_DELIM, $1, /([[(=^<-]+\w+.[])=^>-]+)/ )
  var %Single_Delim = $regex( S_DELIM, $1,  (\w+[.=_]+) )
  return $iif( %Double_Delim > 0, $regml(D_DELIM, 1), $regml(S_DELIM, 1) )
}

Happy coding.

Kind Regards

the underscore isn't a good idea for a clan tag detection

like if The_Don comes in without a tag, the clan would be "The"

Thanks in advance

Hya Guys,

Tag detection without an underscore for single delimiter

Code: [Select]

; -----------USAGE----------
; //echo -a $FindClanTag([MK]rulk)
;
; Tags Covered: (Double Delimiter)
; [MK] (MK) =MK= ^MK^ <MK> -MK-
;
; Tags Covered: (Single Delimiter)
; ULK. ULK=
;
; Note: Combinations are also valid for double delimiter tags.
; Note: Combinations are NOT valid for single delimiter tags
; --------------------------

alias FindClanTag {
  var %Double_Delim = $regex( D_DELIM, $1, /([[(=^<-]+\w+.[])=^>-]+)/ )
  var %Single_Delim = $regex( S_DELIM, $1,  (\w+[.=]+) )
  return $iif( %Double_Delim > 0, $regml(D_DELIM, 1), $regml(S_DELIM, 1) )
}

Any other combinations that need to be removed/added let me know

Kind Regards

Great work rulk! Ideal for clan stats etc.

Btw. the code looks a bit complicated ;D.

Anyway, there is a polish clan with tag L.Team*. Using this script should return "L"...
/me wonders why clans cant have tags in [ ]

Hya [AoD]NC,

Theres going to be a few tags that wont be catered for, but as they pop up, its simple to add them.

Here is a special edition for your polish friends.

Code: [Select]

; -----------USAGE----------
; //echo -a $FindClanTag([MK]rulk)
;
; Tags Covered: (Double Delimiter)
; [MK] (MK) =MK= ^MK^ <MK> -MK-
;
; Tags Covered: (Single Delimiter)
; ULK. ULK= L.Team*
;
; Note: Combinations are also valid for double delimiter tags.
; Note: Combinations are NOT valid for single delimiter tags
; --------------------------

alias FindClanTag {
  var %Double_Delim = $regex( D_DELIM, $1, /([[(=^<-]+\w+.[])=^>-]+)/ )
  var %Single_Delim = $regex( S_DELIM, $1,  (\w.+[.*=]+) )
  return $iif( %Double_Delim > 0, $regml(D_DELIM, 1), $regml(S_DELIM, 1) )
}

Hope this helps

Kind Regards

Hya Guys,


Here is an amended version, thanks for your comments so far.

kaje: Its a small snippet aimed at people that wish to obtain the clan tag from the players name for whatever purposes they desire.

Code: [Select]

; -----------USAGE----------
; //echo -a $FindClanTag([MK]rulk)
;
; Tags Covered: (Double Delimiter)
; [MK] (MK) =MK= ^MK^ <MK> -MK-
;
; Tags Covered: (Single Delimiter)
; ULK. ULK= L.Team*
;
; Note: Combinations of characters are also valid for
;       both double and single delimiter tags.
; --------------------------

alias FindClanTag {
  var %Double_Delim = $regex( D_DELIM, $1, /([[(=^<-]+\w+.[])=^>-]+)/ )
  var %Single_Delim = $regex( S_DELIM, $1,  (\w.+[.*=]+) )
  return $iif( %Double_Delim > 0, $regml(D_DELIM, 1), $regml(S_DELIM, 1) )
}

Dont forget, if there is any combination that you require me to add/remove dont hesitate to ask.

Kind Regards
