This IRC Server is a high-performance Internet Relay Chat server designed for scalability and extensibility. Built with a focus on security and ease of use, it provides a robust platform for real-time communication across various communities.
As an administrator of a large online community, I need a reliable and customizable IRC server to facilitate seamless communication among members, manage channels efficiently, and ensure data security.
- An administrator sets up the IRC Server to support a growing online gaming community, utilizing its advanced features to create a dynamic and engaging environment.
- A tech conference uses the IRC Server to provide real-time chat rooms for attendees, enabling discussions, Q&A sessions, and networking opportunities.
Please refer to the Getting started link for instructions on setting up the IRC Server.
- Dependencies and environmental requirements will be listed here.
cd irc
make
brew install weechat
./ircserv <port> <password>
Connect to the server using your favorite IRC client at the specified port.
/server add <server.name> <server.ip>/6667 -notls -nosslwee
Turn off debugging messages:
/set weechat.network.gnutls_log_level 1
