PyLink

PyLink is an extensible, plugin-based IRC services framework written in Python. It aims to be:

  1. a replacement for the now-defunct Janus.

  2. a versatile framework and gateway to IRC.

Support

First, MAKE SURE youve read the FAQ!

When upgrading between major versions, remember to read the release notes for any breaking changes!

Please report any bugs you find to the issue tracker. Pull requests are open if youd like to contribute, though new stuff generally goes to the devel branch.

You can also find support via our IRC channels: #PyLink @ irc.overdrivenetworks.com(webchat) or #PyLink @ chat.freenode.net. Ask your questions and be patient for a response.

License

PyLink and any bundled software are licensed under the Mozilla Public License, version 2.0 (LICENSE.MPL2). The corresponding documentation in the docs/ folder is licensed under the Creative Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. (LICENSE.CC-BY-SA-4.0)

Dependencies

  • Python 3.4+
  • Setuptools (pip install setuptools)
  • PyYAML (pip install pyyaml)
  • ircmatch (pip install ircmatch)
  • For the servprotect plugin: expiringdict (note: unfortunately, installation is broken in pip due to mailgun/expiringdict#13)

Supported IRCds

Primary support

These IRCds (in alphabetical order) are frequently tested and well supported. If any issues occur, please file a bug on the issue tracker.

  • charybdis (3.5+ / git master) - module ts6
  • InspIRCd 2.0.x - module inspircd
    • For vHost setting to work, m_chghost.so must be loaded.
    • Supported channel, user, and prefix modes are negotiated on connect, but hotloading modules that change these is not supported. After changing module configuration, it is recommended to SQUIT PyLink to force a protocol renegotiation.
  • UnrealIRCd 4.x - module unreal
    • Linking to UnrealIRCd 3.2 servers is only supported when using an UnrealIRCd 4.x server as a hub, with topology such as pylink<->unreal4<->unreal3.2. We nevertheless encourage you to upgrade so all your IRCds are running the same version.

Extended support

Support for these IRCds exist, but are not tested as frequently and thoroughly. Bugs should be filed if there are any issues, though they may not always be fixed in a timely fashion.

  • Elemental-IRCd (6.6.x / git master) - module ts6
  • InspIRCd 2.2 (git master) - module inspircd
  • IRCd-Hybrid (8.2.x / svn trunk) - module hybrid
    • Note: for host changing support and optimal functionality, a service{} block / U-line should be added for PyLink on every IRCd across your network.
  • juno-ircd (11.x / janet) - module ts6 (see configuration example)
  • Nefarious IRCu (2.0.0+) - module nefarious
    • Note: Both account cloaks (user and oper) and hashed IP cloaks are optionally supported (HOST_HIDING_STYLE settings 0 to 3). Make sure you configure PyLink to match your IRCd settings.
    • For optimal functionality (mode overrides in relay, etc.), consider adding UWorld{} blocks / U-lines for every server that PyLink spawns.

Other TS6 and P10 variations may work, but are not officially supported.

Setup

  1. Install PyLink by using python3 setup.py install (global install) or python3 setup.py install --user (local install; note: --user is a literal string)

  2. Rename example-conf.yml to pylink.yml and configure your instance there. Note that the configuration format isnt finalized yet - this means that your configuration may break in an update! Read the release notes before updating to see if anything has changed.

  3. Run pylink from the command line.

  4. Profit???
