Hey all, Just to clarify on my program: it's an IRC bot, which will have various commands, but the primary job is to automatically update the TOPIC on IRC to the next virtual meet/physical meet. This does require a template, but it can be updated when and as needed. The other thing the bot will do is send a short email to the mailing list a week, and two days before the meet to remind everyone. This can be adjusted if that's too frequent. So I suppose it's not just an IRC bot, but a multi-purpose bot. Repo: https://github.com/shymega/DCGLUG-OmniBot Yes, I know, Java, but it's actually not that bad for this, and I did attempt it in bash with ii, but ultimately I was just using `sleep` to wait for NickServ etc, and it got to the point where it was very hacky, and potentially vulnerable to attack as well. At least with Java, I can use my existing knowledge to add modularity, and also have callbacks to wait for authentication and channel joining to complete. Pushing local changes soon... all welcome to contribute. Cheers. On Mon, Aug 9, 2021, at 1:28 PM, Michael Everitt wrote: > Top-posting because .. well .. its more convenient for this thread ..
