Template:Project We need utility which runs as a daemon and uses a set of rules specifying information sources to be checked on a schedule. It will be a Perl daemon based on the wikid.pl code.
Rules
The rules are defined as a list of items and can reside in a location available from any of the protocols it's set up to read from.
Rule Items
- Schedule: pattern to be applied to localtime

- Extraction pattern: Extracts the information from the received content
- Message: containing $n args
- Target: FS, Wiki, POP, IRC
Example Usage

- Changed files syncronised to wiki article
- Changed articles written to files
- Price of a product changing shows up in wiki changes
