  • bbs.atcodes()

    From deon@VERT/ALTERANT to Digital Man on Sat Apr 30 22:17:42 2022
    Hey DM,

    I've been playing with bbs.atcodes(), and I've noticed the following:

    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@DATETIME-L15@] with [Sat Apr 30 2022] synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@TIME-L8@] with [09:42 pm]

    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@DATETIME<pipe>L15@] with [null] synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@TIME<pipe>L8@] with [null]

    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@STATS.LTODAY-Z2@] with []
    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@STATS.TTODAY-Z2@] with []

    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@STATS.LTODAY@] with [5]
    synchronet: term Node 1 <X> Replacing [@STATS.TTODAY@] with [31]

    ie:

    If I use the pipe delimiter (I'm using the word <pipe> above only in this message), I'm getting "null" instead of the value (it works with the dash delimiter).

    For the STATS<dot>XXX I'm getting nothing returned (regardless of whether I use a dash or pipe delimiter), but I do get a return if I remove the delimiter altogether.

    This is: JSexec v3.19c-Linux master/c0f42027d

    I think bbs.atcodes() is not working correct, am I on the wrong track?

    Hey DM,

    That's expected: bbs.atcode() does not support the formatting modifiers.

    For the STATS<dot>XXX I'm getting nothing returned (regardless of whether I use a dash or pipe delimiter), but I do get a return if I remove the delimiter altogether.

    Same answer: you can't use the format modifiers with bbs.atcode().

    This is: JSexec v3.19c-Linux master/c0f42027d

    Are you sure about that? JSexec doesn't instantiate the 'bbs' object, so that seems unlikely. But no matter, it's not an sbbs-version issue.

    I think bbs.atcodes() is not working correct, am I on the wrong track?

    Working as expected.
