Installation

You will need to install from CPAN at least the following packages:

• Bot::BasicBot
• File::pushd
• XML::RAI, XML::RPC, and XML::SAX
• Module::Pluggable
• MooseX::NonMoose
• POE::Component::SSLify (if you want to connect with SSL)

Configuration

The repo is configured by default for running a development version of the
official Cheibriados bot. To change this:

• Edit the channel names and nick in bin/run.
• Edit the admin user names in lib/Crawl/Bot/Plugin/Puppet.pm.
• If you’re running something completely different from Cheibriados, you may
  want to edit the channel names in lib/Crawl/Bot/Bot.pm around say, which
  keep a development version from duplicating an official version in the
  channels specified there.

To enable SSL on the bot’s connection, make sure you choose the correct port,
and add ssl => 1 to the list of properties in bin/run. For example:

Crawl::Bot->new(
    server   => 'irc.libera.chat',
    port     => 6697,
    ssl      => 1,
    channels => ['#crawl-dev'],
    nick     => 'FakeCheibriados',
    name     => 'FakeCheibriados the Crawl Bot',
)->run;

To use nickserv, put the password in plaintext in a file called .password in
the root directory of the repository. Needless to say, this is not a secure
way of storing passwords.

Running

From the root directory of the repository, call bin/run.
