ChatSharp

A C# library for chatting on an IRC (Internet Relay Protocol) network.

Supports a lot of RFC 1459 and a little of 2812.

Example Usage

varclient=newIrcClient("irc.freenode.net",newIrcUser("ChatSharp","ChatSharp"));client.ConnectionComplete+=(s,e)=>client.JoinChannel("#botwar");client.ChannelMessageRecieved+=(s,e)=>{varchannel=client.Channels[e.PrivateMessage.Source];if(e.PrivateMessage.Message==".list")channel.SendMessage(string.Join(", ",channel.Users.Select(u =>u.Nick)));elseif(e.PrivateMessage.Message.StartsWith(".ban ")){if(!channel.UsersByMode['@'].Contains(client.User)){channel.SendMessage("I'm not an op here!");return;}vartarget=e.PrivateMessage.Message.Substring(5);client.WhoIs(target, whois =>channel.ChangeMode("+b *!*@"+whois.User.Hostname));}};client.ConnectAsync();while(true);// Waste CPU cycles

Development / Contributing

ChatSharp is developed with the following workflow:

1. Nothing happens for weeks/months/years
2. Someone needs it to do something it doesn't already do
3. That person implements that something and submits a pull request
4. Repeat

If it doesn't have a feature that you want it to have, add it! The code isn't that scary.
