rbot

Getting started

Assuming you have go set up (http://golang.org/),

git clone git://github.com/kless/goconfig.git
cd goconfig
make -C config install
cd ..
git clone git://github.com/raylu/rbot.git
cd rbot
make -C irc install
make

rbot.conf and auth.conf will be copied. Configure those and then run the bot:

./rbot

Commands

All commands are prefixed with the trigger configured in rbot.conf.

• tr text: detect the language of text
• tr en|ja en|es text: translate text into Japanese and Spanish
• flags raylu: get's raylu's flags
• flags: get's the flags of the user executing the command
• add raylu t: gives raylu the t flag
• remove raylu t: removes the t flag from raylu
• remove raylu: removes all of raylu's flags
• topic text: sets the topic and basetopic to text
• topic: gets the current basetopic
• appendtopic text: if the topic does not starts with basetopic, sets the basetopic to the current topic. Makes the topic basetopic+text.
• say text: says text to the channel

Commands that don't require access behave the same when sent to a channel the bot is in and when whispered to the bot. Commands that require access are listed above as if they were sent to a channel. When sent as a whisper, the first argument must be a channel name.

Flags

Access is configured in auth.conf and based on ident and host; nick is ignored. The owner is configured per server and other access is configured per channel. Owners can use any commands.

The following is a description of the commands enabled by each flag:

• a: add remove
• t: topic appendtopic
• s: say

In addition, a user must have at least one flag to use flags (so users without access can't spam the bot).

Miscellaneous

This project was forked from jessta/goirc which is in turn forked from fluffle/goirc. Both of those projects are focused on developing the goirc framework whereas this is focused on developing a bot.
