Implement IRCNotifier #1

Open jplitza opened 10 years ago

IRC is a common media of communication in the Freifunk community, thus notification via IRC is reasonable.

Channels as well as individuals should be notified via PRIVMSG. FTR, the (most common) URI for individuals is irc://irc.example.org/Nickname,isnick, for channels irc://irc.example.org/channel (Source)

What do you mean with "isnick"?

can you provide an example config for the irc section?

jplitza commented 8 years ago

,isnick is a constant that is appended to the username in the URI, to distinguish it from the URI of a channel of that same name. See examples at Mozilla or StackOverflow.

IRC needs nearly no configuration, and an example is provided in the sample config.
