Instead of sending a hard-coded string message over IRC, now invoke our
plugin list.
Now, IRC messages get matched against our plugin list, and if any plugin
matches, its return string gets posted to the appropriate channel.
Move the database connection inside the plugin so that we can continue
to access it without having to pass in the DB connection. I didn't want
to connect to the database in the IRC code because it doesn't relate,
and I don't have a good enough grasp of monads to know if I can create
the connection in "Lib.hs" and "pass" it to the IRC message handler to
then pass it into the plugins.
Moving the database connection inside the plugins means that it no
longer takes a database connection as an argument.
The IRC message handler now has a lot of duplication, but it basically
works, which is super exciting! Took a _long_ time to figure out the
proper way to get the types to line up and get this compiling, but
really glad it's working now! The magic function turned out to be
`liftIO` to extract the `Either String String` out of its `IO` monad
wrapper to be fed to the `IRC.send` function.
Not a fan of the type conversion between `String` and `Data.Text`, so
we'll eventually have to convert our plugins to use `Data.Text`.

The `=` was previously aligned with the function definition below, but
since the pattern match of the lower function definition changed, the
`=`s were no longer aligned.
Seems like it would be weird to move the `=` out and create a bunch of
blank space to align the two `=`s, so moving the function body to the
next line.

Get rid of the `fail` and use an `Either` for error handling instead.
This allows us to send back the response string like before, but provide
an additional error message when no data comes back from the database
query.
Remove the old error handling code I had tried to set up previously.

This doesn't really work, but I wanted to hold onto this step. I've been
reading about error handling, notably this article:
http://www.randomhacks.net/2007/03/10/haskell-8-ways-to-report-errors/
I kind of like the idea of just using `fail`, and being able to have
that set up some polymorphism to handle `Maybe`, `Either`, and `IO`
situations, but today read some literature that discouraged using fail,
since not all monads implement it.
Anyway, this code doesn't print out the error string like I intended it
to, so I guess I'll have to use `Either` instead.

We don't need to select the channel because we don't do anything with
it. All we need is the repo URL.
Create a new data type for use with the database query that allows us to
select only the URL. Remove the `ChannelRepoUrl` type as it's no longer
needed.
|
|
Ask for the row corresponding to the channel received from the chat
message. This gets rid of the previously hard-coded SQL and allows us to
dynamically get the right URL value.

Added these while developing ff00355ade021d3e06d55017c5337f488474e5cb to
test out different theories while trying to get the project to compile.
These are no longer relevant any more, so delete them.

We're not using it, and originally I didn't even put it in my SELECT
query (which actually messed me up for a couple hours, as two columns in
the SELECT does not match three columns in the data type). Added it
later as a fix for that problem. But since I don't really want or need
to select the id, we shouldn't bother, and in order to do so, we need to
update the Haskell data type to only include two fields, so
sqlite-simple can correctly convert the data.

The GitHub Commit plugin needs access to the database in order to work
properly. Include 'sqlite-simple' to give us access to the database and
have it transform rows into Haskell objects.
This change has the unfortunate effect of forcing us to make
`PluginAction` an IO type. This means we'll need to make all our plugin
action functions use IO, even the pure ones. `PluginAction` now takes a
database connection as a second argument, and returns an `IO String`.
I don't like the fact that the database argument is effectively
hard-coded. Thus the TODO note to try to make a type class to replace it
so we can pass a null database connection when it isn't needed.
Eventually, if more things like this need to be passed into the
function, we might consider making a new struct type for the purpose.
In order to be able to use the `query_` function, which takes a
String-like `Query`, we have to declare `OverloadedStrings`. Now in
`gitHubCommitAction` we take the database connection as an argument,
select a row (for now it's always the first one to test this out), and
send back a GitHub commit URL (if a record matched, otherwise return an
empty string). Eventually we'll want to make this more real by selecting
the row corresponding to the channel in `message`. Also, instead of
returning an empty string, we should be returning an `Either`, so the
error state is clear.
Update the `ChannelRepoUrl` data constructor to use record syntax so we
can name its fields.
|
|
Define some extra types in `ChannelRepoUrl` because I didn't like the
generic ones.
|
|
A type that will be used in conjunction with 'sqlite-simple' to read
values from the plugin's database table.

Have `PluginAction` functions take a Message type instead of a plain
string. This gives us access to additional fields on the message:
channel and nick.
sorbot.cabal:
Add `Message` to `exposed-modules` in order to be able to use it when
building.
Lib.hs:
Change our test message to be a `Message` data type to conform to the new
`PluginAction` interface.
Plugin.hs:
Use `Message` where appropriate. When calling `perform`, pass it a
`Message` instead of a `String`. This means we have to match the regex
within the plugin in order to get the match data. The benefit of that
change is that now we have access to the full message in the plugin if
we need it, not just the regex-filtered part.
GitHubCommit.hs:
Do a regex match against the Message text in order to get the SHA we
want from the message.
|
|
Extract the GitHub commit plugin code from "Plugin.hs" into its own
module. Now that we have things more set up and working to a certain
degree, we can split the code out.
