Summary

Sputnik is a Python IRC bouncer written using asyncio and backed by Redis. It is intended as a lightweight, zero-configuration bouncer capable of deployment on cloud providers such as Heroku. Sputnik is written in pure Python, so adding custom functionality is relatively straightforward.

Features

  • Automatic Network Reconnection
  • Channel Saver
  • Buffered Message History
  • Multi-Client Connections

Getting Started

You can easily deploy a Sputnik instance on Heroku using the button below.

Deploy

Alternately, you can manually create and deploy your own Heroku app, or run Sputnik on your own computer or server. To do so requires a Python 3.4 interpreter and Redis (optional), if you want persistence between restarts or crashes.

Documentation

Sputnik documentation is built using Sphinx and publicly hosted at http://sputnik.readthedocs.org/. You can also build and serve the documentation locally.

git submodule update --init --recursive
cd docs && make dirhtml && cd _build/dirhtml
python -m SimpleHTTPServer

Then visit http://localhost:8000 in a browser.
