This example creates an ircbot called DummyBot and makes it connect to a server and join a channel once it has connected. It also includes an IRC command '!setname <name>' which can be used to change ircbot's name.
function resourceStart ()
dummyBot = ircCreateBot ( "DummyBot" )
ircConnect ( dummyBot, "irc.gtanet.com", 6667 )
end
addEventHandler ( "onResourceStart", getResourceRootElement ( getThisResource() ), resourceStart )
function event_ircOnConnect ( theBot )
setTimer ( ircJoinChannel, 2000, 1, theBot, "#testchannel" )
end
function event_ircOnText ( theBot, channel, sender, message )
if message:find( "!setname" ) then
local params = split ( message, string.byte (' ') )
-- params[1] has the string "!setname" which we don't need
-- params[2] has the new name
ircSetName ( theBot, params[2] )
end
end
