NickServ/SASL authentication

Opened this issue · 3 comments

I wasn't able to find anything in the documentation, but is there a way to authenticate with nickserv on connect for rbot itself?

I use external services to authenticate and login, and my bot's account is registered with my service host.

Along the same lines, I am using SASL to authenticate, as per https://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/sasl-3.2.html ,and was hoping I could do the same with rbot.

I don't think SASL is supported (yet) but there is a NickServ plugin you can use to authenticate against it, check help nickserv. Some servers also allow authentication just via a server password, in which case you just need to set server.password.

Do you know of anyone working on it? I might have some time to take a crack at it.
