# Advanced Configuration for PyLink Relay
|
|
|
|
PyLink Relay provides a few advanced configuration options not documented in the example configuration, either because they have limited use, or are too complicated to be described briefly.
|
|
|
|
**This guide assumes that you are relatively familiar with the way YAML syntax works (lists, named arrays/dicts, etc.).** For the purposes of this document, configuration options will be referred to in the format `a:b:c`, which represents the "`c`" configuration key in a "`b`" block, all within an "`a`" block.
|
|
|
|
### Custom Clientbot Styles
|
|
|
|
Custom Clientbot styles can be applied for any of Clientbot's supported events, by defining keys in the format `relay:clientbot_styles:EVENTNAME`. A list of supported events can be found at https://github.com/GLolol/PyLink/blob/1.1-alpha1/plugins/relay_clientbot.py#L12-L24.
|
|
- Note: the `PM` and `PNOTICE` events represent private messages and private notices respectively, when they're relayed to users behind a Clientbot link.
|
|
- Note 2: as of 1.1.x, all public channel events are sent to channels as PRIVMSG, while `PM` and `PNOTICE` are relayed privately as NOTICE.
|
|
|
|
These options take template strings as documented here: https://docs.python.org/3/library/string.html#template-strings. Supported substitution values differ by event, but usually include the [hook values for each](technical/hooks-reference.md#irc-command-hooks), *plus* the following:
|
|
|
|
- For all events:
|
|
- `$netname`: origin network name
|
|
- `$sender`: nick of sender
|
|
- `$sender_identhost`: ident@host string of sender
|
|
- `$colored_sender`: color hashed version of `$sender`
|
|
- `$colored_netname`: color hashed version of `$netname`
|
|
- For KICK, and other events that have a `$target` field corresponding to a user:
|
|
- `$target_nick`: nick of target (as opposed to `$target`, which is an UID)
|
|
- For events that have a `$channel` field attached (e.g. JOIN, PART) or have a channel in `$target` (PRIVMSG, etc.):
|
|
- `$local_channel`: the LOCAL channel name (of the clientbot network)
|
|
- `$channel`: the real channel on the sender's network
|
|
- `$mode_prefix`: the highest prefix mode of the sender, if they are a user. This is normally either empty or one of (common prefix modes) `~&!@%+`.
|
|
- For SJOIN, SQUIT:
|
|
- `$nicks`: a comma-joined list of nicks that were bursted
|
|
- `$colored_nicks`: a comma-joined list of each bursted nick, color hashed
|
|
|
|
To disable relaying for any specific event, set the template string to an empty string (`''`).
|
|
|
|
### Misc. options
|
|
- `relay:clientbot_startup_delay`: Defines the amount of seconds Clientbot should wait after startup, before relaying any non-PRIVMSG events. This is used to prevent excess floods when the bot connects. Defaults to 5 seconds.
|
|
- `servers:NETNAME:relay_force_slashes`: This network specific option forces Relay to use `/` in nickname separators. You should only use this option on TS6 or P10 variants that are less strict with nickname validation, as **it will cause protocol violations** on most IRCds. UnrealIRCd and InspIRCd users do not need to set this either, as `/` in nicks is automatically enabled.
|
|
- `servers:NETNAME:relay_endburst_delay`: InspIRCd networks only: sets the endburst delay for relay subservers. If relay server bursts are causing +j (join flood) protection to trigger, raising this value can work around the issue.
