Assuming you have go set up (http://golang.org/),

git clone git://github.com/raylu/rbot.git
cd rbot
git submodule init
git submodule update
gomake

rbot.conf and auth.conf will be copied. Configure those and then run the bot:

./rbot

Access is configured in auth.conf, is per-channel, based on ident and host; nick is ignored. The owner is configured per server and other access is configured per channel. Owners can use any commands. Ignores are checked before access.

The following is a description of the commands enabled by each flag:

• a: add remove ignore unignore
• o: op halfop deop dehalfop kick|k ban|b unban|u kb
• h: halfop|hop dehalfop|dehop kick|k ban|b unban|u kb (hop and dehop can only be used on yourself and you cannot kick or kb people with o or h)
• v: voice, devoice
• t: topic appendtopic
• s: say

In addition, a user must have at least one flag to use flags and list (so users without access can't spam the bot).

All commands are prefixed with the trigger configured in rbot.conf.

Access related commands:

• flags raylu: get's raylu's flags
• flags: get's your flags
• add raylu t: gives raylu the t flag
• remove raylu t: removes the t flag from raylu
• remove raylu: removes all of raylu's flags
• ignore raylu: ignores all messages from raylu's host on this network
• unignore raylu: unignore raylu
• list: lists all users and their access
• list raylu: searches the access list for raylu

Commands that don't require access behave the same when sent to a channel the bot is in and when whispered to the bot.

Commands that require access are listed above as if they were sent to a channel. When sent as a whisper, the first argument must be a channel name.

The bot will accept invites from the owner to any channel and only the owner can use part.

This project was forked from jessta/goirc which is in turn forked from fluffle/goirc. Both of those projects are focused on developing the goirc framework whereas this is focused on developing a bot.
