Whois

From ZNC
Revision as of 02:44, 17 January 2012 by >Resistance (Noting that the plugin does not work. See talk page for error descriptions.)
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This module does not work with the latest version of ZNC! It has compile-time errors which prevent the use of the module!

This global module catches whois commands sent to the server. If the username begins with a ? (i.e. ?efreak), it shows varying amounts of information, depending on the settings and whether or not you are an admin. This module by default sends numerics, to be compatible with existing scripts that use whois.

Installing

The code for this module can be found here or here. Follow the Compiling modules page to compile it.

Configuration

All arguments are optional.

Arg Description
-reqadmin Only admins can use whois. returns access denied to the module if set
-dev mostly for development. Sends text to PM as well as sending as a standard PM. May do other things in the future.
-servername=irc.znc.in Replace irc.znc.in with the hostname of your bouncer. Is used as default vhost in the 312 (rpl_whoisserver) reply (if not set, uses ZNC or irc.znc.in).

At this time there is no internal configuration.

Contact via email, or on irc. Efreak is available in #znc on EFnet and Freenode, and can also be found on the RecalledToIRC and Mibbit chat networks, among other places.

Development

There are some comments at the very end of the code (if you download from my server). These are mostly ideas and a little bit of code.

ZNC 0.80

The current code takes advantage of functions introduced in ZNC 0.90. If you have ZNC 0.80 or earlier, please use the code here instead of the code in the repo or on the code page.
