# This is the default config file for Oragono. # It contains recommended defaults for all settings, including some behaviors # that differ from conventional ircds. See conventional.yaml for a config # with more "mainstream" behavior. # # If you are setting up a new oragono server, you should copy this file # to a new one named 'ircd.yaml', then read the whole file to see which # settings you want to customize. If you don't understand a setting, or # aren't sure what behavior you want, most of the defaults are fine # to start with (you can change them later, even on a running server). # However, there are a few that you should probably change up front: # 1. network.name (a human-readable name that identifies your network, # no spaces or special characters) and server.name (consider using the # domain name of your server) # 2. if you have valid TLS certificates (for example, from letsencrypt.org), # you should enable them in server.listeners in place of the default # self-signed certificates # 3. the operator password in the 'opers' section # 4. by default, message history is enabled, using in-memory history storage # and with messages expiring after 7 days. depending on your needs, you may # want to disable history entirely, remove the expiration time, switch to # persistent history stored in MySQL, or do something else entirely. See # the 'history' section of the config. # network configuration network: # name of the network name: OragonoTest # server configuration server: # server name name: oragono.test # addresses to listen on listeners: # The standard plaintext port for IRC is 6667.
