CombustionHelper-like oUF tag?

[Irongunner]

Hey guys,

I recently started a firemage twink and I need to integrate something like CombustionHelper into my UI. Unfortunately this addon has a terrible clumsy look and I dont need all the features, the most relevant one for me is the line showing the tick height of the ignite dot. So I want to make a oUF tag for it, if thats possible.

Has anyone done this before? I need to access the target's debuffs by name and then somehow extract the dot length / tick height. Maybe this can be done by accessing the tooltip text and extract the relevant numbers from there (are there regular expressions in LUA)?

PS:

If you think this any further, the same mechanism could be useful to track:
- DK necrotic strike absorption amount
- Feral tank mastery absorption amount
- Priest shield absorption
