Make trup detect and read message.txts and write them out #12

Closed eepykate closed 3 years ago

eepykate commented 3 years ago

by elkowar: https://github.com/unixporn/trup/issues/168

Trup could autodetect message.txt files and as long as they're below a reasonable threshold (5000 characters? idk) write them out, split up into several messages. Alternatively, this could be a command (!long or something, ran in the message that also sends the message.txt).

6gk:

very bad idea. sounds extremely spammy and abuse-prone. a better solution could be to reupload to another service with a web interface (0x0.st, hastebin, pastebin, etc) & give a short preview, but even then it could be abused, at least it's not spammy though.

elkowar:

i mean, uploading to a separate service sounds like a good compromise, yea,... if you set a line-limit (specifically lines + a char limit still), it couldn't be alllll that spammy although I was informed that there are also betterdiscord plugins that show message.txt's, so maybe that's,..... a good enough workaround for me at least

I've added this. You can test it here: https://github.com/legendofmiracles/trup-rs

It doesn't show the first two lines (yet, to add or not?), because it uploads it to 0x0.st without downloading the message.txt and having to download would be quite a overhead.

Can be closed.
