= net-irc


== Description

IRC library. This is mostly conform to RFC 1459 but partly not for convenience.


== Installation

=== Archive Installation

	rake install

=== Gem Installation

	gem install net-irc


== Features/Problems

* IRC client (for bot)
* IRC server (for gateway to webservices)

== Synopsis

=== Client

	require "net/irc"

	class SimpleClient < Net::IRC::Client
		def on_privmsg(m)
			super
			channel, message = *m
			if message =~ /Hello/
				post NOTICE, channel, "Hello!"
			end
		end
	end

Net::IRC::Client manages channel status and the information is set in @channels.
So, be careful to use @channels instance variable and call super surely.

=== Server

see example/tig.rb


== IRC Gateways

There are some gateways connecting to webservices.
