ShibRC

Simple IRC Server based on the RFC (mainly 2812) written in C++.

ShibRC does not support server-server communication and is best used with irssi (or any client that send packets terminated with \r\n).

Connect

⚠️ Our URL to connect has changed, it's now: shibrc.fr ⚠️

If you'd like to try our server without having to build it you can connect to our public server shibrc.fr using the password password with the following commands :

First install a client, here we'll use irssi since it is the one we chose to do the project with :

sudo apt install irssi

Or install with brew if you are at 42 :

brew install irssi

Then simply connect to the server using this command :

irssi -c shibrc.fr -w password

For less typing you could do /SERVER ADD -network shibrc shibrc.fr 6667 password inside of irssi and then you can simply connect to our server by doing irssi -c shibrc.

As you may have noticed the oper_password specified in the config file doesn't work on our server shibrc.fr in order to avoid abuse, if you'd like to try our operator commands and permissions you can simply build the server locally.

Run

Do make and then run :

./ircserv <port> <password>

Or you could also do make run which directly starts the server on the port 6667 and with the password password.

You can modify the config file default.config to your convinience as well as the files.

If you'd like to see what packets we received and send you can use make debug make sure that you did a make clean before.

Finally we added a bot, to run it go inside the bot folder and do make and then provide the needed arguments or simply do make run, the bot will create / join the #bot channel and you will be able to use the commands from there by using the prefix !. The bot handles a few commands such as :

help
flip
roll
nick
quit
