Automode Tutorial
The Automode plugin was introduced in PyLink 0.9 as a simple way of managing channel access control lists with Relay. That said, it is not designed to entirely replace traditional IRC services such as ChanServ.
Starting steps
Upon loading the automode plugin, you should see an
Automode service bot connect, using the name that you defined. This bot
provides the commands used to manage access.
For a list of commands: - /msg ModeBot help
Adding access lists to a channel: -
/msg ModeBot setacc #channel [MASK] [MODE LIST] - The mask
can be a simple nick!user@host hostmask or any of the
extended targets (exttargets) mentioned below. MODE LIST is a string of
any prefix modes that you want to set (no + before needed),
such as qo, h, or ov.
Removing access from a channel: -
/msg ModeBot delacc #channel [MASK]
Listing access entries on a channel: -
/msg ModeBot listacc #channel
Applying all access entries on a channel (sync): -
/msg ModeBot syncacc #channel
Clearing all access entries on a channel: -
/msg ModeBot clearacc #channel
Supported masks and extended targets
Automode supports any hostmask or extended target implemented in PyLink; see the Exttargets Guide for more details.
Permissions
See the Permissions Reference for a list of permissions defined by Automode.
Caveats
- Service bot joining and Relay don’t always behave consistently: see https://github.com/GLolol/PyLink/issues/265
