📮 About

HoneyBot is a python-based IRC bot. (python3.7) | If you want to just run the bot, go to the quick start section

HoneyBot is my first time collaborating to an open source project and I'm loving it. Before discovering HoneyBot, I was very intimidated on the idea of working with other people and had no idea what an IRC even was. Now I realize how much fun and rewarding it is to work together on a project with dedicated and friendly individuals. The documentation is easy to follow and everyone is super helpful. I highly recommend any new programmer who want to contribute on an open source project to try out HoneyBot. Personally I enjoy working on this project more than my own schoolwork. --@RiceAbove

Feel free to contribute to the project!

🕹 Project Motivation

Implementing the project in Java was weird, py's connect was sleek. Thus, the project stack was shifted over to Python. If you can think of any features, plugins, or functionality you wish to see in the project. Feel free to add it yourself, or create an issue detailing your ideas. We highly recommend you attempt to implement it yourself first and ask for help in our discord server !

Psst. Since I learnt py through this bot, we decided to keep a new-comers friendly policy. Feeling lost? Just ping.

🔧 Plugins Development

Each plugin has a folder named after it. In it there is a file called main.py. In each there is a class called Plugin.

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

class Plugin:
    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def run(self, incoming, methods, info, bot_info):
        try:
            if info['command'] == 'PRIVMSG' and info['args'][1] == '.hi':
                methods['send'](info['address'], 'hooo')
        except Exception as e:
            print('woops plugin error ', e)

we see four parameters being passed to the run method , incoming, methods, info, bot_info)

parameter1: incoming

incoming is the raw line and is not used except if you are not satisfied with the already provided methods

parameter2: methods

methods is a dictionary of methods to ease your life. a quick look at main.py reveals

def methods(self):
        return {
                'send_raw': self.send,
                'send': self.send_target,
                'join': self.join
                }

where send_raw allows you to send in any string you want, thereby allowing you to implement any irc protocol from scratch

but, for most uses, send allows you to send a message to an address methods['send']('<address>', '<message>'). using it in conjunction with info parameter allows you to send messages where it came from, in pm to the bot or in a channel. you can however hardcode the address.

join allows you to join a channel by methods['join']('<channel name>')

parameter3: info (meaning message info)

for a normal run, info produces

{
'prefix': 'appinv!c5e342c5@gateway/web/cgi-irc/kiwiirc.com/ip.200.200.22.200',
'command': 'PRIVMSG',
'address': '##bottestingmu',
'args': ['##bottestingmu', 'ef']
}

hence if you want messages, messages = info['args'][1:] or the first word if you want to check for command will be info['args'][1]

use example

  • the command info is used in the join channel plugin to detect a join command and greet the user who just joined

bot info

bot_info returns info about the bot

        return {
            'name': self.name,
            'special_command': self.sp_command,
            'required_modules': self.required_modules,
            'owners': self.owners,
            'time': self.time,
            'friends': self.friends
        }

so that in run method you can access those.

use example

  • For example, the time info is used in the uptime plugin by minussing it from the current time to get time bot has been running.
  • The required modules is used in the installed plugin to determine what required plugin the bot runner did not install

wrapping up

hence

if info['command'] == 'PRIVMSG' and info['args'][1] == '.hi':
    methods['send'](info['address'], 'hooo')

from above means

if message received == .hi:
    send(address, message)
