IRC Manager ( without Eggdrop/Mirc )

This is the first release of my irc manager for VB 3.5.
You don't need eggdrop or mirc to run this script.

Multiple irc-servers & channels are supported

This script is based on "Eggdrop IRC Manager"
You can use your old config, you must only change every config and add server_id

Extract and upload all the files from the ROOT folder to your forum root. ( 1x admincp script, 1x admincp-xml, 1x cron script )

After upload, import product-ircmanager.xml.

This product will automatically add a vb-cronjob which runs every 15 min.

How does this script works?
It uses a socket connection to your irc server.
After a successful connection, the script joins your channel(s), collects information then leaves the channel(s).

This is a first version of the script. Later on, I plan to send some forum information to the channel, e.g. 10 last posts.

the scritps working fine, but now even if the bot stays in for a minute or more, its still not counting the correct number of users & ops

What where it says 0 online?

Nice mod but only really good for dedicated server renters/owners Most web hosts block all known irc ports.

[Sooner95]

your server must have valid network configuration ( DNS )

you can test it by typing from shell

"telnet uk.quakenet.org 6667"

if you get connect to the server, your network settings are correct

These are the kinda things you should really let people know up front. If the fail the test, then they don't have to bother wasting time with this.

I installed it, yes... telnet responds fine.

I get this when I run the cronjob:

IRC Manager
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/cron/ircmanager.php on line 68
Done

The bot joins and leave the channel, stats are updated on the homepage but not properly there is no time/date stamp or topic and the currently online stats are not display'd either.

#myirc @ irc.server: 0 online
Most users in the chat was 2 on at .
Topic: 
ST_Away, eM_eSS_Kay

NOTE: The stats are not carried over properly on the homepage however they are recorded and display'd in the ACP > Channel Administration > Modify a channel, there is not topic set btw. so I can't confirm that is a problem at this time:

#myirc  	irc.server.net:6667  	   	 	0  	2  	11-03-2005  	ST_Away, eM_eSS_Kay  	[edit]

So the cronjob doesn't work properly at this time, perhaps this release should go into beta, at least until it works a little more.

UPDATE: The invalid argument cronjob error is caused by missing #channel topic.

IRC Manager
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/cron/ircmanager.php on line 68
Done

I added a topic and the error disapeared. I guess a condition in ircmanager.php on weither a topic is present could help resolve this error.

which server ( irc ) software do you use?
can you tell me per PM addresse from your server, i will test it

i have testet this bot with the Unreal IRCd and it works fine

[JohnBee]

its unreal iRCD running under win32 server. Do you think all the other anomalies "no date stamp, no of people in chan. etc." are related to that?

how long till there is a eggdrop version of this with the updated features like posting the last so many posts or topics in the chatroom. also if its eggdrop you should script it where it acts like this

every 15 minutes

it will display forum stats

there are currently 20 members 120 guests active on Your@site.com
There has been 20 new topics and 40 replies in the last 15 minutes
( type !topics for a list of The lastest topics or !posts for a list of the latest posts...

then the eggdrop should Check every minute or every 5 minutes how many users are in the chat and display that to the forum...

Is that possible for you to accomplish ?
