Bot user interface

cwgordon7 - March 25, 2009 - 03:27

This module provides a simple interface for controlling your bot through your website. It uses a javascript/ajax-based IRC widget to send and receive your bot's messages. The bot must already be running on your website in order for the interface to work.

This module depends on the bot module.

As of now, you will want to hack bot_start.php to make bot_irc_cron run every 2 seconds or so rather than every 5 minutes. Multiple users should theoretically be able to use the bot at once, but they will both be talking as the bot at the same time, and will not see each others' messages. Also a known issue: bot messages from other bot* modules will not be outputted to the user interface.

Of course, patches are always welcome. :)
