Trigger Question. Help converting String of characters to a list of words.
|
Hoping one of the wise readers out there can help me with this question.
I am working on a trigger that will take a line like the one that follows and sort the last string of characters into the actual words they represent. Then put those words into a variable that I can then use to display the full meaning of the string.
| Code: |
#HUD:********:C:L# fc,v,PS,B,CC,10,10,0,10.562,185,0.000,0.000,180,-,0.000,180,80,0,BdDSFs
|
B = Burning
d = Dug in
D = Destroyed
S = Shutdown
F = Fallen
s = starting up
The list of possible characters is pretty long so that is just a sample. The method does need to be case sensitive though.
Everything is storing fine until that last string. I can't seem to wrap my brain around a way to pull that from the pattern and then sub in the actual words that the letters represent
I'm hoping to just throw everything into a regular string list variable since that would print out nicely for how I plan to use this. Nothing needs to be sorted, I just want a word for each letter.
Don't wanna make a huge post with everything I've tried this morning. So if anyone can offer a little help I would be very thankful. |

Is the rest of the string preceding the info you want formatted the same way every time?

how long is the list of possibilities?
to use a string list var and have it be case sensitive for the initial letters... you could do this... dont laugh, it works...
i replaced %1 with the actual list for use on command line... so $x = BdDSFs would be $x = %1 in a trig...
enter this at command line,
{$list=%null;$x = BdDSFs;$x=%concat("X",$x);#LOOP %len($x) {$list = %concat($list,"|", %left(%right($x,%i),1))};$list = %replace(%replace(%replace(%replace(%replace(%replace($list,"|B|","|Burning|"),"|d|","|Dug in|"),"|D|","|Destroyed|"),"|S|","|Shutdown|"),"|F|","|Fallen|"),"|s|","|starting up|");$list = %leftback(%right($list,1),1);#show $list}
$list winds up being:
Burning|Dug in|Destroyed|Shutdown|Fallen|starting up
dunno, maybe it'll help ya think :P
I'm REALLY missing cAsE sensitivity in list vars :( |

Even though Zugg has asked us to keep it zscript, this case calls for a regex, and I think it's exactly what you're looking for:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
<trigger priority="295160" regex="true" copy="yes">
<pattern>#HUD.+,(?:([BdDSFs]+))\s?</pattern>
<value>$replacement={%if( %pos( "B", %1), "Burning|")%if( %pos( "d", %1),"Dug in|")%if( %pos( "D", %1), "Destroyed|")%if( %pos( "S", %1), "Shutdown|")%if( %pos( "F", %1), "Fallen|")%if( %pos( "s", %1), "Starting up|")}
#PSUB {%leftback($replacement, 1)} %x1</value>
</trigger>
</cmud> |
This is, of course, assuming that the line will ALWAYS start with #HUD. Just continue to follow the format in the $replacement= part to add more as needed. Using that format, it changes:
| Code: |
| #HUD:********:C:L# fc,v,PS,B,CC,10,10,0,10.562,185,0.000,0.000,180,-,0.000,180,80,0,BdDSFs |
into
| Code: |
| #HUD:********:C:L# fc,v,PS,B,CC,10,10,0,10.562,185,0,0,180,-,0,180,80,0,Burning|Dug in|Destroyed|Shutdown|Fallen|Starting up |
and
| Code: |
| #HUD:********:C:L# fc,v,PS,B,CC,10,10,0,10.562,185,0.000,0.000,180,-,0.000,180,80,0,BdFs |
into
| Code: |
| #HUD:********:C:L# fc,v,PS,B,CC,10,10,0,10.562,185,0.000,0.000,180,-,0.000,180,80,0,Burning|Dug in|Fallen|Starting up |
and so forth.

Thanks Charneus, the trigger you posted is working in the main window. Here is the actual trigger i'm wroking with right now.
| Code: |
<trigger priority="3740" id="374">
<pattern>^#HUD:@HIKey:C:L# (*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*),(*)</pattern>
<value><![CDATA[#gag
#VAR CON_ID %1
#VAR CON_ARC %2
#VAR CON_SENSORS %3
#VAR CON_UnitType %4
#VAR CON_MechName %5 // - if unknown
#VAR CON_X %6
#VAR CON_Y %7
#VAR CON_Z %8
#VAR CON_Range %9
#VAR CON_Bearing %10
#VAR CON_Speed %11
#VAR CON_VertSpeed %12
#VAR CON_Heading %13
#VAR CON_JumpHeading %14
#VAR CON_RangeToCenter %15

Contacts:#show -
]]></value>
</trigger>
|
The trigger takes the info I want from line received then feeds it to a second window called contacts with mxp for color and clickable links. I used (*) in the pattern for simplicity for the time being. I would like to have all 19 variables stored. USUALLY I fail at regex but It looks I'm gonna give it another shot for this one. I need the practice anyway because it seems so useful.
Hopefully my monitors make it through the night, lol. |

Well, if you want all 19 variables stored, then you don't need the regex, you already have a trigger pattern that works. You just want to convert your Con_Status, right? Just use one of the replacement schemes that Private and Charneus used.

It might even be a good idea to take my replacement script and put it into a function. Then you can do something like Con_Status=@makeword(%1). Then you'd be set.
