Note: This fork is the correct place to open up issues. The original repo seems to be unmaintained.
irssi does not yet support the IRCv3 server-time extension (specified at https://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/server-time-3.2.html), so this plugin fills that hole. The plugin does not work for all kinds of messages, but query messages and channel messages you receive with a servertime attached will show the servertime properly (rather than the time you received the message).
Irssi does not provide a nice way to change the timestamp of a message within a script. So this script changes the "timestamp format" setting (normally set to a value like "%h:%m") to the literal time the server sent us (ex: "10:23") while the message is being processed, and then the script changes the timestamp format back to whatever it was before.
You can most easily install this script from scripts.irssi.org.
If you'd like to install from this repo. Add server_time.pl to your scripts
directory (likely at ~/.irssi/scripts/). This script is intended to be loaded
before connecting to a server, so I'd recommend adding a symlink in your
autorun directory.
You can run make in the project directory to create a
server_time.withcomments.pl file that has this README and the License added
to the top as comments (this is the file that's published to
scripts.irssi.org).
0.1
- Initial release
1.0
- Forked by John Sullivan (without explicit cooperation from original author).
- Removed dependency on DateTime::Format::ISO8601 because it is not shipped in Brew's Perl by default and it's overkill anyways.
- Prepared it for inclusion in https://scripts.irssi.org.
