If you never played go do not click this link, you still can be saved from this drug :)
Just hacked this simple script to poll for my turns to move on http://www.dragongoserver.net/. To my taste the script is a bit ugly but it works.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $go = DragonGoServer->new;
$go->login($ENV{DRAGONGO_LOGIN}, $ENV{DRAGONGO_PASSWORD});
while(1) {
$go->read_status;
sleep 480;
}
package DragonGoServer;
use base qw(WWW::Mechanize);
sub redirect_ok { 1 }
sub login {
my $self = shift;
my ($login, $password) = @_;
$self->get('http://www.dragongoserver.net/');
$self->submit_form(form_name => 'loginform',
fields => { userid => $login,
passwd => $password });
}
sub read_status {
my $self = shift;
$self->get('http://www.dragongoserver.net/status.php');
if($self->content =~ /Your turn to move in the following games/) {
print "Your turn to move in the following games:\n";
my $re = qr!game\.php\?gid= (\d+)
.*?
userinfo\.php\?uid=\d+ .*? (.*?)
!x;
my $content = $self->content;
while($content =~ /\G[\s\S]*?$re/g) {
print "Game #$1, player '$2'\n";
}
print "\n"
}
}
