The User plugin

Registration and hostmasks

user username <hostmask|nick>

Returns the username of the user specified by <hostmask> or <nick> if the user is registered.

user set password [<name>] <old password> <new password>

Sets the new password for the user specified by <name> to <new password>. Obviously this message must be sent to the bot privately (not in a channel). If the requesting user is an owner user (and the user whose password is being changed isn't that same owner user), then <old password> needn't be correct.

user set secure <password> [<True|False>]

Sets the secure flag on the user of the person sending the message. Requires that the person's hostmask be in the list of hostmasks for that user in addition to the password being correct. When the secure flag is set, the user must identify before he can be recognized. If a specific True/False value is not given, it inverts the current value.

user hostmask hostmask [<nick>]

Returns the hostmask of <nick>. If <nick> isn't given, return the hostmask of the person giving the command.

user hostmask list [<name>]

Returns the hostmasks of the user specified by <name>; if <name> isn't specified, returns the hostmasks of the user calling the command.

user hostmask add [<name>] [<hostmask>] [<password>]

Adds the hostmask <hostmask> to the user specified by <name>. The <password> may only be required if the user is not recognized by hostmask. <password> is also not required if an owner user is giving the command on behalf of some other user. If <hostmask> is not given, it defaults to your current hostmask. If <name> is not given, it defaults to your currently identified name. This message must be sent to the bot privately (not on a channel) since it may contain a password.

user hostmask remove <name> <hostmask> [<password>]

Removes the hostmask <hostmask> from the record of the user specified by <name>. If the hostmask given is 'all' then all hostmasks will be removed. The <password> may only be required if the user is not recognized by his hostmask. This message must be sent to the bot privately (not on a channel) since it may contain a password.

user unregister <name> [<password>]

Unregisters <name> from the user database. If the user giving this command is an owner user, the password is not necessary.

user register <name> <password>

Registers <name> with the given password <password> and the current hostmask of the person registering. You shouldn't register twice; if you're not recognized as a user but you've already registered, use the hostmask add command to add another hostmask to your already-registered user, or use the identify command to identify just for a session. This command (and all other commands that include a password) must be sent to the bot privately, not in a channel.

user unidentify

Un-identifies you. Note that this may not result in the desired effect of causing the bot not to recognize you anymore, since you may have added hostmasks to your user that can cause the bot to continue to recognize you.

user identify <name> <password>

Identifies the user as <name>. This command (and all other commands that include a password) must be sent to the bot privately, not in a channel.

user changename <name> <new name> [<password>]

Changes your current user database name to the new name given. <password> is only necessary if the user isn't recognized by hostmask. This message must be sent to the bot privately (not on a channel) since it may contain a password.

Capabilities

user capabilities [<name>]

Returns the capabilities of the user specified by <name>; if <name> isn't specified, returns the capabilities of the user calling the command.

Other commands

user stats

Returns some statistics on the user database.

user list [--capability=<capability>] [<glob>]

Returns the valid registered usernames matching <glob>. If <glob> is not given, returns all registered usernames.

user whoami

Returns the name of the user calling the command.
