/PinkiePyBot

Python IRC bot remixed for Canternet, the Pony IRC. Based on mutantmonkey's Python 3 fork.

Primary LanguagePython

pinkie

This is a port of phenny, a Python IRC bot, to Python3. It has been forked from mutantmonkey's phenny port.

New features include many new modules, IPv6 and TLS support (which requires Python 3.2).

Compatibility with existing phenny modules has been mostly retained, but they will need to be updated to run on Python3 if they do not already. All of the core modules have been ported.

Requirements

pinkie runs on a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server and therefore doesn't get tested on other platforms. You will need the latest version of Python 3.2 (which can be installed with sudo apt-get install python3-all python3-all-dev). We thankfully no longer require the use of lxml or BeautifulSoup thanks to the JSON APIs of several sites.

Installation

  1. Run ./pinkie - this creates a default config file
  2. Edit ~/.pinkie/default.py
  3. Run ./pinkie - this now runs pinkie with your settings

Enjoy!
