NAME

Bot::Net::Util - miscellaneous utility functions

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
my @args = Bot::Net::Util->parse_bot_command($message);
            
          

DESCRIPTION

Provides utility functions for use elsewhere.

METHODS

parse_bot_command MESSAGE

Returns an array of words found in the given message. This tries to sensibly break up a command. The string will be split on whitespace or grouped by quotes.

Quoted strings may contain quotes by containing a double-quote to escape it. For example,

            

              
              
tell 'bob''s friend' """Hello World"""
            
          

would become:

            

              
              
('tell', "bob's friend", '"Hello World"')
