Show users in IRC Chat (no eggdrop) · **Released**: 09-25-2002

Hello,

Current Version: 1.1b

This hack is in very very (very!) beta stage. I'm only announcing in here for documentation and testing purposes. I'm in the process of re-working and re-writing it, so don't expect this to be relevant in a week or two.

Description:
This hack will display a list of users in your IRC based chat room. It will/should work with any chat hack, so long as it's IRC based. The only hack I've tested it with is the eIRC hack. I've tested the script on both Linux and FreeBSD.

How it works:
This hack uses a small perl script and POE::Component::IRC to connect to IRC, join a channel, grab the users, save the info to a file and then exit. It is run via cron to update the list as often as you choose. vB will display this info with a template mod.

What is planned:
I've re-written the script using POE::Component::IRC, which is a little more flexible, so my previous 'planned' list is already complete.

Since this hack is in it's beta state I will only be giving it out via email. If you'd like to have the beta version, please email me, or PM me and I'll get it to you.

Once a week of beta testing is complete I will make this hack available to the general public.

You can see this hack in action at http://bbs.pearl-jam.net or via the screenshot attached.

Version History:
1.0b -
* Inital Release
* Written using Net::IRC perl module

1.1b -
* Re-written using POE::Component::IRC perl module
* Got rid of topic retrieval
* Modified user display to show # of users, and users
* Took out user status (ie- @, +, etc)
* Comified user list
* Can now detect users w/out being in channel (fixes a nasty feature which cause the "bot" to join the channel, gather the info and quit. Now the channel doesn't even know it's being watched)
* Can hide certian users (with a slight code hack [unsupported feature])

Interesting, PM sent

The overhead of this is too large for my site, so I've stopped using it. I've made it available for general download on the first post, and on this one.

I will not support this anymore as I've stopped using it on my own forums. If you hack, or update let me know!

Good Luck!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
