LIMNORIA(1)

✨ LIMNORIA ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're about to talk about limnoria β€” a robust and user friendly Python IRC bot, and honestly? it's giving main character energy πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

limnoria [options] configFile

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so like. Limnoria is a robust, user-friendly, and programmer-friendly Python IRC bot. no cap. it's literally aiming to be an adequate replacement for most existing IRC bots out there, which is a whole mood.

the way it comes with a very flexible and powerful ACL system for controlling access to commands? iconic. obsessed. and on top of that it ships with more than 50 builtin plugins providing around 400 actual commands. four hundred. bestie. that's not a bot, that's an empire πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • --version β€” shows you the version of the program. that's it, that's the whole job πŸ’«
  • -h, --help β€” shows a summary of the options, aka the lil cheat sheet when you're lost 🫢
  • -P, --profile β€” enables profiling. let it snoop on itself, it's fine 🧚
  • -n NICK, --nick=NICK β€” the nick the bot should use. pick something cute πŸ’œ
  • -u USER, --user=USER β€” the full username the bot should use ✨
  • -i IDENT, --ident=IDENT β€” the ident the bot should use 🌸
  • -d, --daemon β€” determines whether the bot will daemonize. heads up: this is a no-op on non-POSIX systems, so don't come for it if nothing happens on Windows πŸ¦‹
  • --allow-default-owner β€” determines whether the bot will allow its defaultCapabilities not to include "-owner", thus giving all users the owner capability by default. and like... this is dumb, hence why they make you pass a command-line option to enable it. they're protecting you from yourself fr fr πŸ’€
  • --allow-root β€” determines whether the bot will be allowed to run as root. bestie. you do not want this. do not do it. even if you think you want it, you do not. this is not the vibe. this is the opposite of the vibe πŸ™ˆ
  • --debug β€” determines whether some extra debugging stuff will be logged by this script. for when you need the tea β˜•
