IRC Mod for Minetest (C) 2012 Diego Martínez INTRODUCTION ------------ This mod is just a glue between luasocket, LuaIRC, and Minetest. It provides a two-way communication between the in-game chat, and an arbitrary IRC channel. Note: This mod is currently a work-in-progress, and is only tested under Ubuntu 12.04 with Minetest 0.4.3 and 0.4.4-dev. Testers for other platforms are welcome. INSTALLING ---------- Unpack the archive and put the `irc' directory in any of the directories where Minetest looks for mods. For more information, see: http://wiki.minetest.net/wiki/Installing_mods SETTINGS -------- All settings are changed directly in the script. If any of these settings are either nil or false, the default value is used. SERVER (string, default "irc.freenode.net") This is the IRC server the mod connects to. CHANNEL (string, default "#minetest-irc-testing") The IRC channel to join. DTIME (number, default 0.2) This is the time in seconds between updates in the connection. In order not to block the game, the mod must periodically "poll" the connection to both send messages to, and receive messages from the channel. A high value means slower connection to IRC, but possibly better response from the game. A low value means the mod "polls" the connection more often, but can make the game hang. It allows fractional values. LICENSE ------- This license applies only to my code (in init.lua).
