Define words from urbandictionary.com

Usage

!lingo <term>

Queries urbandictionary for the given term

Example:

!lingo dig

Returns:

A word to use when you're insulting someone. Like a "burn" or a "blast". An
insult. A dig isn't usually meant seriously. It's normally used in a joking
manner with a hint of truth. :)

!lingo <term> <index>

When a term has multiple definitions, one may retrieve a consecutive definition by incrementing index. It implicitly starts at 0, so not including it is like getting the 0th definition.

Example:

!lingo dig 2

Returns (the third definition content):

v.
1. To perceive and comprehend the nature and significane of; grasp; gather.
"Ya dig? Yeah I can dig it"
etc.

!lingo -d <term>

Execute regular lingo query, but return debug results as well

Methodology

Uses the official urbandictionary api, parsing the json response, and returning the definition according to the index the user provides. By default, this is the first, or 0th, index.

An example API call for the term ‘api’ would be:

api.urbandictionary.com/v0/define?term=api
