Kwiki::Notify::IRC - announce updates to your Kwiki on IRC channels

SYNOPSIS

 $ cd /path/to/kwiki
 $ kwiki -add Kwiki::Notify::IRC
 $ cat config/notify_irc.yaml >> config.yaml
 $ edit config.yaml
 $ perl notify-irc.pl

DESCRIPTION

This module allows you to notify your IRC channel(s) of updates to Kwik pages. The bot will announce what page was updated and by whom.

The module provides a notify-irc.pl script that acts as a combination update daemon and IRC bot. This script must be run from your Kwiki installation directory.

Configuration Directives

• notify_irc_daemon_host
• notify_irc_daemon_port

  Defines the host and port that will be used for the IRC daemon. The defaults should be fine if you're running your Kwiki and notify_irc.pl on the same machine.

• notify_irc_ircname

  Name settings. Note that the username is not configurable -- instead, it is set to the USER environment variable.

• notify_irc_server_host
• notify_irc_server_port

  What IRC server to connect to.

• notify_irc_server_channels

  A comma-delimited list of channels to connect to.
