Identifying emotes in a chat message

astro_charles · December 13, 2021, 7:40pm

Hi:

Is there a simple way to read messages from chat and determine how many emotes the message contains? I am building a bot using Javascript to read each message.

Thanks

Parse the tags in the privmsg and count the emotes in the tags

An example showing how to parse in JS

'use strict';

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const WebSocket = require('ws');

const pinger = {
    clock: false,
    start: () => {
        if (pinger.clock) {
            clearInterval(pinger.clock);
        }
        pinger.sendPing();

        pinger.clock = setInterval(function() {
            setTimeout(function() {
                pinger.sendPing();
                //jitter
            }, Math.floor((Math.random() * 1000) + 1));
        }, (4 * 60 * 1000));
