Ticket #7222 (closed suggested feature: fixed)

Opened 2 years ago

Last modified 1 year ago

@chan/recall added functionality

Reported by: Trinsec Assigned to: devteam
Priority: minor Milestone: 1.8.3p4
Keywords: Cc:
Visibility: Public

Description 

@chan/recall <channel>=<timeframe>
<timeframe> being stuff like '1h' or '23m'
Which implies 'in the last <time given>'

Example:
I log on, enter middle of conversation, wonder what the last 10 mins 
were about. @chan/recall public=10m

Would just be an 'addition' to the current @chan/recall (check if the 
time units are given, 'h' or 'm' or even 's' if you're funky, or 'd' for 
days.)
Any other letters: Current response of 'How many lines did you want to 
recall?' is good.
No letters: Current response with buffer sizes is good.

Would be useful, as a timeframe is probably more familiar to the 
end-user to give than the buffer size and that the resulted response 
will be indeed lines inside said timeframe instead of having something 
from eons ago also shown.

Since there wasn't a lot of space to comment with the file, I'll add it separately. I wrote a patch for the functionality Trinsec described that seems to work fine in both @chan/recall and crecall(), though both ignore the <start line> argument when a timestring is given, since it doesn't really make a lot of sense. Relies on Javelin's patch in ticket 7230 which refactors stringsecs(). Hope it works OK.
