| ZyklonB
 | |
| =======
 | |
| 
 | |
| `ZyklonB' is an experimental IRC bot, building upon the concept of my other
 | |
| VitaminA IRC bot.  The main characteristic of these two bots is that they run
 | |
| plugins as coprocesses, which allows for enhanced reliability and programming
 | |
| language freedom.
 | |
| 
 | |
| While originally intended to be a simple C99 rewrite of the original bot, which
 | |
| was written in the GNU dialect of AWK, it fairly quickly became a playground
 | |
| where I added everything that seemed nice.
 | |
| 
 | |
| kike
 | |
| ----
 | |
| Also included is a simple IRC daemon that mostly follows the RFC's but is
 | |
| limited to single-server networks, due to the protocol being incredibly ugly and
 | |
| tricky to implement correctly (the poor quality of the RFC's doesn't help).  It
 | |
| is designed for use as a regular user application rather than a system daemon.
 | |
| 
 | |
| It is complete enough to be useful but there are still some things that need to
 | |
| be resolved before I can consider it stable.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Some interesting features:
 | |
|  - SSL/TLS autodetection
 | |
|  - IRCop authentication through SSL/TLS client certificates
 | |
|  - epoll support on Linux
 | |
|  - superfast build time, small memory footprint
 | |
| 
 | |
| Building and Running
 | |
| --------------------
 | |
| Build dependencies: openssl, clang, pkg-config, make, awk, sh
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you don't have Clang, you can edit the Makefile to use GCC or TCC, they work
 | |
| just as good.  But there's no CMake support yet, so I force it in the Makefile.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  $ git clone https://github.com/pjanouch/ZyklonB.git
 | |
|  $ make
 | |
| 
 | |
| That is all, no installation is required, or supported for that matter.
 | |
| 
 | |
| First you might want to generate a configuration file:
 | |
|  $ ./zyklonb --write-default-config
 | |
|  $ ./kike --write-default-config
 | |
| 
 | |
| After making any necessary edits to the file (there are comments to aid you in
 | |
| doing that), simply run the appropriate program with no arguments:
 | |
|  $ ./zyklonb
 | |
|  $ ./kike
 | |
| 
 | |
| ZyklonB stays running in the foreground, so I recommend launching it inside
 | |
| a Screen or tmux session.  kike, on the other hand, immediately forks into the
 | |
| background.  Use something like `killall' if you want to terminate it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Client Certificates
 | |
| -------------------
 | |
| `kike' uses SHA1 fingerprints of SSL client certificates to authenticate users.
 | |
| To get the fingerprint from a certificate file, use:
 | |
|  $ openssl x509 -noout -in cert.pem -sha1 -fingerprint
 | |

 | |
| And no, I'm not going to change the names.
