PAIB

PAIB is Pta's Amazing IRC Bot, although on #ludumdare it can also stand for Pta's Amazing Idea Bot (because that's what it's doing there ;))

Installing

PAIB is an extensible IRC bot written in python3 using the IRC module. You can easily set it up:

$ sudo pip3 install irc
$ git clone https://github.com/pta2002/paib.git
$ cd paib
$ python3 paib.py

This should get you running

Changing the config

As of now, PAIB only runs in a single channel. This is how config.json would look like for #paib on irc.afternet.org (port 6667):

  {
    "connection": {
      "server": "irc.afternet.org",
      "port": 6667,
      "nick": "paib",
      "channel": "#paib"
    },
  
    "botsettings": {
      "command_prefix": "$",
      "plugins_folder": "plugins",
      "ignored": ["bot1", "bot2"]
    },
  
    "admin": {
      "admins": ["example"]
    }
  }

The settings on the config file are meant for #ludumdare, where I (pta2002) am the paib admin and where yaib and lunabot are two other bots that we should ignore.
