irc-cpp

Simple C++ IRC bot implementation

dependencies

For now, this project depends on openssl and optionally pugixml as well as sqlite3, if you want to build test.cpp.

compile

# without ssl
$ make

# with ssl
$ make USE_SSL=t

# to include your own config in 'config.h'
$ make IRC_CONFIG=t

run/kill

# run with pipe (will send the bot's output to 'bot.out')
$ make run_pipe

# run with system log (sends output to '/var/log/syslog',
# or anywhere else you might have configured in rsyslog)
$ make run_syslog

# kill (or type '.quit' on the irc channel, granted you need
# to have your host configured in 'config.h' , to prevent this
# command from being abused by the average user)
$ make kill

usage

The test bot that comes with the source, test.cpp, has the following commands:

.quit       --  kill the bot :-(
.noticeme   --  the bot will notice you
.esmaga     --  the bot will curse at you in portuguese :-)
.np <user>  --  the bot will tell you what you're listening to, using last.fm

protips

tcp.cpp is a standalone tcp client you can use for pretty much anything you want; it even comes with nifty ssl support!
