pyrcb2 is an asyncio-based library for writing IRC bots. It is designed to be easy to use, customizable, and high-level.
pyrcb2 includes features such as account tracking, user prefix tracking (voice, op, etc.), messaging delaying to prevent throttling, and long message splitting.
pyrcb2 also makes use of asyncio and coroutines in Python. This allows you to write asynchronous code in a linear fashion—you can handle responses to commands right after you send them.
# Wait until the bot has joined #channel.
await bot.join("#channel")
print("There are", len(bot.users["#channel"]), "users in #channel.")
# Get user1's account.
result = await bot.get_account("user1")
if result.success:
account = result.value or "(no account)"
print("user1 is logged in as", account)Installation
Install with pip:
$ pip3 install pyrcb2
Or download the source code and install with setup.py:
$ ./setup.py install
