boxbot's Introduction

boxbot

A simplistic Python 2.x irc bot with feedparser and Twisted. It is able to

  • Change an irc channel topic prompted by a (proboards forum) RSS feed.
  • Notify irc channel patrons about new forum posts (again, via RSS feed).
  • Get authed with QuakeNet Q
  • Parse url titles (with Requests and BeautifulSoup)
  • Provide simple entertainment (Hellooo! Awww.) to channel patrons
  • Follow Twitter feeds

usage

This bot being heavily in development, you probably do not want to actually use this for anything.

However, if you insist:

  • Branch master should be a stable version. It might also go on full rampage on your irc channel.
  • See requirements.txt, install packages if necessary.
  • Create a 'config.yaml' and 'config-test.yaml' files, see 'config-example.yaml' for syntax. Run by executing the script 'bin/boxbot'.

license

If you managed to find this terrible thing, you probably could write a better irc bot by yourself, too. Please, do so.

For completeness' sake, however, I declare this project GNU GPLv3. Search internet for terms.

boxbot's Issues

Save default / previous topic (preamble) in a file

a feasible proposition to fix the weird "can't see title" bug :

keep track of what the topic is in a file, and then if the topic is ever blank, ignore that and reset the topic to what it was before.

[Enhancement] Specify new threads vs thread replies

The RSS feed provides links to the topics via a number at the end of a link.

Perhaps boxbot can keep track of said number, and if the linked number is higher, assume new topic and alter the notification accordingly.
