The irc module does not appear to be very actively maintained, and has
quite a few issues causing issues in this project itself.
This fork, maintained by me, has a few fixes to some major issues
already.
Changelogs:
- v0.6.0 - https://github.com/Throne3d/node-irc/releases/tag/v0.6.0
- v0.6.1 - https://github.com/Throne3d/node-irc/releases/tag/v0.6.1
Should fix#199, #200, as well as some issues not previously noted
(crash if unbanning a user who is not banned, crash in circumstances
with a poor internet connection).
It may also allow us to remove our workaround for the quit and nick
events having all channels in the associated array.
Attempts to fix#216's crash but is unlikely to fix the
underlying issue (that somehow the client isn't saving
a list of nicks in a channel, either because the server
isn't sending a names event, or the node-irc library is
processing it poorly, or otherwise).
Fixes#217.
- Reorganize the comments describing how to format the custom
formatting options
- Make 'author' and 'nickname' synonyms in the custom formatting
- Add a 'side' parameter for commandPrelude (takes 'Discord' or
'IRC', depending on whether the message was from Discord or IRC)
- Add debug messages upon sending command messages
- Add similar functionality for command messages sent in IRC to
Discord, as from Discord to IRC
- Add tests for the above and custom formatting of it
Should fix#216, by lowercasing the channel name when
it receives each event. This also adds debug messages
to make it easier to see when the bot is actually
receiving (and presumably processing) these events.
Keep a list of users in each channel, using the names event
in addition to the join/part events, so as to prevent spamming
unnecessary channels when the quit event is raised with all
channels from a server.
Fixes#213.
- Do not discard reason from part messages
- Output to each channel in the quit messages
- Add tests for join/part/quit events
- Add test that sendSpecialToDiscord doesn't send messages
to outside the channel mapping
If a channel is referenced in Discord, e.g. <#1234>, and the
referenced channel ID does not exist, the bot will presently
crash. This fixes it to display '#deleted-channel', as it
does on the Discord side of the mirror.
