Hi all.

With help from: parv, dhoss, Fairy_Nuff, and planetscape, I started writing a chatterbox history tool for educational reasons.

use warnings; use strict; use LWP::Simple; use DBI; my $data = ''; my $dbh = ''; my $url = 'http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=207304'; my $pat = qr{ .*<author>(.*)<\/author>.*<text>(.*)<\/text }xs; $data = get( $url ); $dbh = DBI->connect( "dbi:SQLite:dbname=C:\\testdb", "", "" ); while ( ( my($auth, $text) = ( $data =~ m/$pat/gc ) ) ) { for( $text ) { s/[ ]+/ /g; s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; } printf "%s: %s\n\n" , $auth , $text; $dbh->do('insert into monks values(?,?)', undef, $auth, $text ); }


I was hoping some of you could offer suggestions regarding how I might improve the design/functionality of the (currently beta quality) program. At the present time, it only displays the most recent author/comment as opposed to several speakers and their respective comments.

I took the liberty of including my (simple) table design as well:
SQLite 3.5.6
CREATE TABLE monks( monk varchar(25), comment varchar(255) );

Thanks,
~Katie

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
