Raw

Version 5.0

  • An identd server has been added
  • Use the udns library instead of c-ares, for asynchronous DNS resolution. It’s still fully optional.

Version 4.0 - 2016-11-09

  • The separator between the IRC nickname and the IRC server is now '%' instead of '!'. This makes things simpler (only one separator to remember). The distinction between a JID referring to a channel and a JID refering to a nickname is based on the first character (# or & by default, but this can be customized by the server with the ISUPPORT extension).
  • Handle channel invitations in both directions.
  • Add support for JID escaping <.http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0106.html>.
  • Save all channel messages into the database, with an ad-hoc option to disable this feature.
  • When joining a room, biboumi sends an history of the most recents messages found in the database.
  • Channel history can be retrieved using Message Archive Management.
  • Result Set Management can be used to request only parts of the IRC channel list.

Version 3.0 - 2016-08-03

  • Support multiple-nick sessions: a user can join an IRC channel behind one single nick, using multiple different clients, at the same time (as long as each client is using the same bare JID).
  • Database support for persistant per-user per-server configuration. Add LiteSQL <https://dev.louiz.org/projects/litesql> as an optional dependency.
  • Add ad-hoc commands that lets each user configure various things
  • Support an after-connect command that will be sent to the server just after the user gets connected to it.
  • Support the sending of a PASS command.
  • Lets the users configure their username and realname, if the realname_customization is set to true.
  • The remote TLS certificates are checked against the system’s trusted CAs, unless the user used the configuration option that ignores these checks.
  • Lets the user set a sha-1 hash to identify a server certificate that should always be trusted.
  • Add an outgoing_bind option.
  • Add an ad-hoc command to forcefully disconnect a user from one or more servers.
  • Let the user configure the incoming encoding of an IRC server (the default behaviour remains unchanged: check if it’s valid utf-8 and if not, decode as latin-1).
  • Support multi-prefix <http://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/multi-prefix-3.1.html>.
  • And of course, many bufixes.
  • Run unit tests and a test suite, build the RPM and check many things automatically using gitlab-ci.

Version 2.0 - 2015-05-29

  • List channels on an IRC server through an XMPP disco items request
  • Let the user send any arbitrary raw IRC command by sending a message to the IRC server’s JID.
  • By default, look for the configuration file as per the XDG basedir spec.
  • Support PING requests in all directions.
  • Improve the way we forward received NOTICEs by remembering to which users we previously sent a private message. This improves the user experience when talking to NickServ.
  • Support joining key-protected channels
  • Setting a participant's role/affiliation now results in a change of IRC mode, instead of being ignored. Setting Toto's affiliation to admin is now equivalent to “/mode +o Toto”
  • Fix the reconnection to the XMPP server to try every 2 seconds instead of immediately. This avoid hogging resources for nothing
  • Asynchronously resolve domain names by optionally using the DNS library c-ares.
  • Add a reload add-hoc command, to reload biboumi's configuration
  • Add a fixed_irc_server option. With this option enabled, biboumi can only connect to the one single IRC server configured

Version 1.1 - 2014-07-16

  • Fix a segmentation fault when connecting to an IRC server using IPv6

Version 1.0 - 2014-07-12

  • First stable release.
  • Mostly complete MUC to IRC, and IRC to MUC support
  • Complete handling of private messages
  • Full IRC modes support: setting any IRC mode, and receiving notifications for every mode change
  • Verbose connection status notifications
  • Conversion from IRC formatting to XHTML-im
  • Ad-hoc commands support
  • Basic TLS support: auto-accepts all certificates, no cipher configuration, no way to force usage of TLS (it is used only if available, clear connection is automatically used as a fallback)
  • IPv6 support
