I wanted to post slack webhook, but I get an error.
This works:
(defun post-slack ()
(drakma:http-request "https://hooks.slack.com/services/xxx"
:method :post
:content-type "application/json"
:parameters '(("payload" . "{\"username\":\"bot\",\"icon_emoji\":\":hatching_chick:\",\"text\":\"name: ~A \n email: ~A \n content: ~A \",\"as_user\":true}"))))
But this does not:
(defun post-slack (name email text)
(setq *payload* (format nil "{\"username\":\"bot\",\"icon_emoji\":\":hatching_chick:\",\"text\":\"<#U7RM4J8MR> name: ~A \n email: ~A \n text: ~A \",\"as_user\":true}" name email text))
(drakma:http-request "https://hooks.slack.com/services/xxx"
:method :post
:content-type "application/json"
:parameters '(("payload" . *payload*))))
This is my error:

Please tell me how to fix it. Thanks!
You are passing (("payload" . *payload*)) to drakma:http-request,
and *payload* here is not evaluated, i.e., it is passed as a symbol,
not its value.
What you probably want is something like
(defun post-slack (name email text)
(let ((payload (format nil "..." ...)))
(drakma:http-request "https://hooks.slack.com/services/xxx"
:method :post
:content-type "application/json"
:parameters `(("payload" . ,payload)))))
Note that I replaced setq with let.
PS. You can also use (list (cons "payload" *payload*)) instead of `(("payload" . ,payload)) if you want to avoid backquote.
Since you're talking about Slack:
https://github.com/dptd/cl-slack (seems the most up to date and documented)
https://github.com/m0cchi/cl-slack
https://github.com/kkazuo/slack-client (in Quicklisp)
https://github.com/fiddlerwoaroof/slacker (most recent, no doc)
https://github.com/stryku/jasa (2017)
There are also more Slack bots.
I discovered these with quicksearch (I didn't know it was this handy).

In the following code, I get a Required argument is not a symbol error.
(defconstant +localhost+ (vector 127 0 0 1))
(defun ip-from-hostname (hostname)
(sb-bsd-sockets:host-ent-addresses
(sb-bsd-sockets:get-host-by-name hostname)))

(sb-bsd-sockets:socket-send socket "GET / HTTP/1.1" nil)
(write-line (sb-bsd-sockets:socket-receive socket nil 2048))))

Required argument is not a symbol: ((IP
(CAR
(IP-FROM-HOSTNAME "www.google.com")))
(SOCKET

I've narrowed down the issue to the section calling ip-from-hostname, but the strange thing is a boiled down version of the let binding works in the REPL:
(let ((ip (sb-bsd-sockets:host-ent-addresses (sb-bsd-sockets:get-host-by-name "www.google.com"))))
(write-line (write-to-string (car ip))))
I also tried replacing the ip-from-hostname call with its body thinking that it might be something to do with the arguments, but still no luck. Any thoughts?
(defun test-connect ...

I'm using the cl-irc library to connect to Slack, via the IRC gateway Slack provides.
However I'm getting the following error when I try to start the message loop with read-message-loop:

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here; I'm fairly sure it's not my hooks, because the problem persists even if I disable them all.
Also, I can use the connection as expected - say, joining a channel and sending messages - provided I don't try to start the message loop.
At a guess, I'd say Slack is responding to connection with an unexpected message?
The fix as suggested by #jkilski is to modify cl-irc to accept the slightly unusual (but probably standards-compilant?) responses from Slack:
(in-package #:cl-irc)
(defmethod default-hook ((message irc-rpl_welcome-message))
(with-slots
(connection host user arguments)
message
(destructuring-bind
(nickname &rest welcome-message)
arguments
(setf (user connection)
(make-user connection
:nickname nickname
:hostname host
:username user)))))
(in-package #:irc)
(defmethod default-hook ((message irc-rpl_namreply-message))
(let* ((connection (connection message)))
(destructuring-bind
(nick chan-visibility channel &optional names)
(arguments message)
(declare (ignore nick))
(let ((channel (find-channel connection channel)))
(setf (visibility channel)
(or (second (assoc chan-visibility
'(("=" :public) ("*" :private) ("#" :secret))
:test #'string=))
:unknown))
(unless (has-mode-p channel 'namreply-in-progress)
(add-mode channel 'namreply-in-progress
(make-instance 'list-value-mode :value-type :user)))
(dolist (nickname (tokenize-string names))
(let ((user (find-or-make-user connection

nickname))))
(unless (equal user (user connection))
(add-user connection user)
(add-user channel user))
(set-mode channel 'namreply-in-progress user)
(let* ((mode-char (getf (nick-prefixes connection)

I've applied to join the dev mailing list and will be submitting a patch shortly.
I am trying to read a series of web pages with CLISP, if they exist, but I don't understand how open-http works to skip non existing web pages.
I have the following:
(dolist (word '(a b c))
(with-open-stream (stream (ext:open-http
(format nil
"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/~a.html"
word)
:if-does-not-exist nil))
(when stream
(print word))))
I want to simply skip a web-page if it doesn't exist, but CLISP seems to hang and returns an "Invalid argument" error.
Could anyone explain how the argument :if-does-not-exist works and/or provide examples of how to use open-http. Thanks!
It does work for me:
(with-open-stream (stream (ext:open-http
"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/234242424242"
:if-does-not-exist nil))
(format t "~&Stream: ~A~%" stream))
Output:
;; connecting to "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/234242424242"...connected...HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
;; HTML source of Page not found
Stream: NIL
NIL
There is a delay to get the connection, but it works.
If the page does exist:
[7]> (with-open-stream (stream (ext:open-http
"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36003343/clisp-open-http-example"
:if-does-not-exist nil))
(format t "~&Stream: ~A~%" stream))
;; connecting to "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36003343/clisp-open-http-example"...connected...HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Stream: #<IO INPUT-BUFFERED SOCKET-STREAM CHARACTER stackoverflow.com:80>
NIL
With Wikipedia I couldn't make it work since Wikipedia.org re-directs it to HTTPS and EXT:OPEN-HTTP neither can handle HTTPS directly, nor it can handle redirects:
Here if HTTPS is used directly:
[10]> (with-open-stream (stream (ext:open-http
"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp"
:if-does-not-exist nil))
(format t "~&Stream: ~A~%" stream))
*** - OPEN-HTTP: "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp" is not an HTTP URL
The following restarts are available:
ABORT :R1 Abort main loop
Break 1 [11]> :r1
If "https" is replaced by "http", CLISP doesn't construct a proper address:
[12]> (with-open-stream (stream (ext:open-http
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Lisp"
:if-does-not-exist nil))
(format t "~&Stream: ~A~%" stream))

Not really a CL nor a Web programming expert, so may be I'm missing something really obvious: I try to set a session-value in page-1 and fetch the result in page-2. Nothing is displayed in page-2, though...
(ql:quickload "cl-who")
(ql:quickload "hunchentoot")
(defpackage :sessmin

(setf (session-value :sv) "testvalue")

(:head

(:body

(:p "Session Page 2, value:" (session-value :sv))))))
(start-server 8080)
EDIT: Got the "("s wrong in my first version, still does not work after correction though...
Your problem is not that the session value is not set, but in your cl-who format.
(:p "Session Page 2, value:" (session-value :sv))
will not print the session value; the return value of session-value is simply ignored.
;; try this:
(:p "Session Page 2, value:" (str (session-value :sv)))
;; or, if you need to html-escape the value,
(:p "Session Page 2, value:" (esc (session-value :sv)))
Not a Hunchentoot expert, but I think you forgot to close :head.
I got a set of classes which represent a message that has to be handled. But there is only a limited amount of open spots for handlers. Therefore any "dispatch" of a handler handling an message object has to check first whether there is a free spot.
If there is -> dispatch.
If there is not -> do not dispatch and return corresponding message
As this part of the code will be the same in any dispatch method I figured it would be best to use the method combination facility to enforce that, but I cannot figure out how.
In my current code base I tried to use a :before method, but apparently you cannot use return in such context:
(defclass message () ((msg :initarg :msg :reader msg)))
(defclass message-ext (message)
((univ-time :initarg :univ-time :reader univ-time)))
(defparameter *open-handler* nil)
(defgeneric handle (message)
(:documentation "handle the given message appropriately"))
(defmethod handle :before ((message message))
(when (> (length *open-handler*) 1)
(return :full)))
(defmethod handle ((message message))
(push (FORMAT nil "dispatched handler") *open-handler*))
(defmethod handle ((message-ext message-ext))
(push (FORMAT nil "dispatched ext handler") *open-handler*))
(handle (make-instance 'message :msg "allemeineentchen"))
(handle (make-instance 'message-ext
:msg "rowrowrowyourboat"
:univ-time (get-universal-time)))
(handle (make-instance 'message-ext
:msg "gentlydownthestreet"
:univ-time (get-universal-time)))

Is this approach even sane, and if yes how can I do it in a working fashion? (I did already try return-from with the same result)
I think you should be using the :around method qualifier instead:
(defmethod handle :around ((message message))
(if (cddr *open-handler*)
:full
(call-next-method)))
However, a more "lispy" approach is to use the CL Condition System, e.g., something like this:
(define-condition too-many-messages (...) (...) ...)
(defun add-message (message)
(when (cddr *open-handler*)
(signal 'too-many-messages))
(push message *open-handler*))
(defmethod handle ((message message))
(add-message (FORMAT nil "dispatched handler")))
You will have to handle the condition (using, e.g., handler-bind) in addition to checking the return values of your handle function.
PS. Calling length on a list to check that it is long enough is not a very good idea - although in your case, when the list is guaranteed to be short, this might be more of a style issue.
PPS. It is not a very good idea to use the word handle as a name of your function because CL has functions which contain it (e.g., handler-case). This will complicate the search in your code in addition to confusing people reading your code.
You can't call RETURN to return from a function like that.
You would need to use RETURN-FROM with the function name. But here it would return from the method - not the generic function.
#sds has an answer. Another one would be to signal a user defined condition and handle it somewhere else. Older code used catch and throw.
A more complex undertaking would be a user defined method combination.
