Special methods and catching events

This page is a non-exhaustive list of special plugin method names and events catchable via those methods (other events include configuration hooks <configuration-hooks> and HTTP server callbacks <http_plugins>)

Commands and numerics

You can catch commands directly with “do-methods”: when the bot receives a PRIVMSG, all doPrivmsg methods are called; when it gets a 437 message, all do437 methods are called, etc.

Those command take two commands: an Irc object <supybot-irclib-irc> and a IrcMsg object <supybot-ircmsgs>.

To get a list of all possible messages, check IRC RFCs.
