Possible to use a password #93

Closed pinghajen closed 8 years ago

Is it possible to use a password for irc.bot.SingleServerIRCBot.__init__ Or how do I log in with a password?

Sorry for the delay.

Yes, it's possible. Unfortunately, the docs aren't rendering the docstrings of the class, which indicate that the server_list parameter accepts tuples suitable for constructing ServerSpec objects, which take a host, port, and password. So pass something like server_list = [('myserver', 6667, 'mysecret')].

Now that's if your server requires a password. If you need to send something like a Nickserv password, that's a different matter. For something like that, see what the pmxbot project does.
