So here's a general *programming* introduction to what the different
|
|
modules do and what services they provide. It is, however, only an
|
|
introduction. Read the modules themselves for a much more detailed
|
|
explanation :)
|
|
|
|
fix.py: Stuff that Python should (but doesn't) include by default.
|
|
|
|
cdb.py: A constant database library, translated from C (and my O'Caml
|
|
version) More information available at
|
|
http://cr.yp.to/cdb.html. Not currently used since we
|
|
switched to PySQLite.
|
|
|
|
ansi.py: Contains different ANSI color sequences.
|
|
Mostly used by the debug module.
|
|
|
|
conf.py: The configuration file for the bot -- it sets a lot of
|
|
variables that other modules check for when they have
|
|
questions about what they need to do.
|
|
|
|
world.py: Just a dropping off place for some globals that need to be
|
|
shared among all the modules. It's obviously not used *a
|
|
lot*, but some things seem to fit better here than anywhere
|
|
else.
|
|
|
|
template.py: A template used by setup.py to create customized runnable
|
|
Python scripts for individual bots.
|
|
|
|
privmsgs.py: Basic stuff relating to callbacks.Privmsg, the base class
|
|
for most plugins.
|
|
|
|
callbacks.py: A few basic callbacks providing significant
|
|
functionality. You'll likely be inheriting from Privmsg
|
|
quite a bit.
|
|
|
|
ircdb.py: The users and channels databases are here, as well as the
|
|
IrcUser and IrcChannel classes. Look here when you want to
|
|
restrict a command to only certain users.
|
|
|
|
irclib.py: Provides the most important class in the irclib, Irc. It
|
|
represents a connection to an IRC server, but it's entirely
|
|
separate from the network implementation. It's connected
|
|
to the network (or whatever else drives it) by a "driver"
|
|
module which uses its feedMsg/takeMsg functions.
|
|
|
|
drivers.py: The baseclass (IrcDriver) for various drivers to drive
|
|
irclib.Irc classes. Also, the driving mechanism.
|
|
|
|
asyncoreDrivers.py: The asyncore-based drivers for use with the bot.
|
|
|
|
socketDrivers.py: The plain old socket-based drivers for use with the
|
|
bot.
|
|
|
|
twistedDrivers.py: The Twisted <http://www.twistedmatrix.com/> drivers
|
|
for use with the bot.
|
|
|
|
ircmsgs.py: The IrcMsg class (get to know it :)) and various functions
|
|
for making the creation of IrcMsgs easier.
|
|
|
|
ircutils.py: Various utility functions for Irc -- read the module to
|
|
see what goodies are there :)
|
|
|
|
schedule.py: A schedule driver (which is automatically registered with
|
|
the drivers module) to run things at a particular time,
|
|
or at specified periods of time.
