Using snort with paper while alerting

[honeybadger () q com]

Hey all, 

I am trying to get my head how to script this. 

I want a packet capture when SNORT alerts that a server is getting a UDP packet. 

I know the rule is alert UDP any any - > serverip any. 

PCAP does not seem able to do this, is there a way to script this in a local rule?
