Attached is the perlscript that I've been using to convert scripts into perl. Even if you choose to continue using the native scripting engine, I think you may find this useful. It can be easily modified to suit your needs (if it doesn't already). If you don't already have Perl, I recommend getting the
Activestate distribution. It is a small, free download.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#convert scripts from .qst to .pl
#usage: ./convert.pl [questdir]
use File::Find;
use strict;
sub convert
{
my $infile = $_;
(my $outfile = $infile)=~s/qst$/pl/;
print "Converting file: $infile -> $outfile\n";
if(!open IN, "$infile") {
warn $!;
return;
}
if(!open OUT, ">$outfile") {
warn $!;
return;
}
while(<IN>)
{
#remove stray backslashes
s|\\|\?|;
#change /yada yada yada/ comment lines to #yada yada
s|^/(.*)/\s*$|#($1)|;
#prefix each event block w/ "sub"
s/^(EVENT_)/sub $1/;
#change $1/$1- (etc) notation to instead match against $text
s/\s*\$\d-?\s*=~\s*\"(.*?)\"/\$text=~\/$1\/i/;
s/\$\d-?/\$text/;
#change itemcount syntax
s/if\(\$itemcount\(\"(\d+)\"\)\s*==/if\(\$itemcount\{$1\} && \$itemcount\{$1\} ==/;
#change summonitem syntax to seperate args w/ commas
s/summonitem\((.*?\")\s+(\".*?)\)/summonitem\($1, $2\)/;
#change commands to have a quest:: prefix and be seperated by semi-colons (;)
s/(say|emote|shout|spawn|echo|summonitem|castspell|depop|cumflag|flagnpc|flagclient|exp|level|safemove|rain|snow|givecash|pvp|doanim|addskill|me)(\(.*?\))/quest::$1$2;/g;
print OUT $_;
}
close IN;
close OUT;
}
@ARGV = qw(.) unless @ARGV;
find( sub {/^.*\.qst\z/s && convert("$_")}, @ARGV);
If you need to ensure that quests are using valid database references, you can use something like the following. I used ODBC here, but if you install the DBD::mysql module, you can go directly through mysql.
Code:
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use File::Find ();
use DBI;
my $dbh= DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:yourdsnname","yourusername","yourpassword") or die "Got error $DBI::errstr when connecting to db\n";
#my $dbh= DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:yourdsnname","yourusername","yourpassword") or die "Got error $DBI::errstr when connecting to db\n";
# Traverse desired filesystems
File::Find::find({wanted => \&wanted}, './quests');
exit;
sub wanted
{
if(/^.*\.qst\z/s)
{
if(!open(SCRIPT, $_))
{
warn $!;
return;
}
while(<SCRIPT>)
{#summonitem("19629");
if(/summonitem\(\"(\d+)\"\)/)
{
my $rv = $dbh->do("select * from items where id = $1");
if(!$rv)
{
warn "Can't execute query: $dbh->errstr $!";
return;
}
if($rv == 0E0)
{
print "Error: summonning non-existant item (#$1) in $File::Find::name\n";
}
}
}
close SCRIPT;
}
}
By using the techniques in these two scripts, you should be able to mold your quest scripts to whatever format you desire.
EQ live quests
Linear Mode
