KtIrc

KtIrc is a Kotlin JVM library for connecting to and interacting with IRC servers. It is still in an early stage of development.

Setup

KtIrc is published to JCenter, so adding it to a gradle build is as simple as:

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("com.dmdirc:ktirc:<VERSION>")
}

Usage

The main interface for interacting with KtIrc is the IrcClientImpl class. A simple bot might look like:

with(IrcClientImpl(Server("my.server.com", 6667), Profile("nick", "realName", "userName"))) {
    onEvent { event ->
        when (event) {
            is ServerWelcome -> sendJoin("#ktirc")
            is MessageReceived ->
                if (event.message == "!test")
                    reply(event, "Test successful!")
        }
    }
    connect()
}
