The [`rednet_message`] event is fired when a message is sent over Rednet.
|
|
|
|
This event is usually handled by [`rednet.receive`], but it can also be pulled manually.
|
|
|
|
[`rednet_message`] events are sent by [`rednet.run`] in the top-level coroutine in response to [`modem_message`] events. A [`rednet_message`] event is always preceded by a [`modem_message`] event. They are generated inside CraftOS rather than being sent by the ComputerCraft machine.
|
|
|
|
## Return Values
|
|
1. [`string`]: The event name.
|
|
2. [`number`]: The ID of the sending computer.
|
|
3. [`any`]: The message sent.
|
|
4. <span class="type">[`string`]|[`nil`]</span>: The protocol of the message, if provided.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
Prints a message when one is sent:
|
|
```lua
|
|
while true do
|
|
local event, sender, message, protocol = os.pullEvent("rednet_message")
|
|
if protocol ~= nil then
|
|
print("Received message from " .. sender .. " with protocol " .. protocol .. " and message " .. tostring(message))
|
|
else
|
|
print("Received message from " .. sender .. " with message " .. tostring(message))
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
```
