IRC bouncer mode #320

Open Daniel15 opened 11 years ago

Daniel15 commented 11 years ago

I'm using KiwiIRC to connect to my IRC bouncer (ZNC). This means there is only one user (me), and I always connect with a password in the format "username/network:password" (eg. Daniel15/FreeNode:mypassword). KiwiIRC is working fine if I type the password in this format, but It would be nice to have a mode optimised for this usage pattern. Instead of the current fields on the login page, the following could displayed:

Username
Password
Network (dropdown list configured in config.js)
Option to hide room field (ZNC automatically opens all the rooms you were in at the time you last quit, so I never use this field)

The logic could be entirely client-side, concatenating username/network:password and storing this in a hidden password field (as per the current behaviour)

This is all based off ZNC, it may vary for other bouncers.

prawnsalad commented 11 years ago

We have thought about doing exactly this, just streamlining the connection for ZNC users. Will keep this issue open as a reminder.

Daniel15 commented 11 years ago

I'll try to take a look at it if I get a chance. Haven't gotten a chance to look through the code yet.

Regards, Daniel

bump

Daniel15 commented 10 years ago

These changes are in #321; you should bump that instead. Having said that, I no longer use Kiwi IRC so I don't know if my original changes still work.

ZacharyDuBois commented 9 years ago

I'd love to see this added. For ZNC, you need to send Username and Password on join. You should be able to restrict the server address, port, and ssl but user and password should still be able to be set by the user.

ajvpot commented 9 years ago

I'm interested in seeing these changes made. I'm looking into implementing them as a browser plugin though. This doesn't seem like something that requires a change to the server code.

ZacharyDuBois commented 8 years ago

Still waiting on this .-. I can't even connect to my ZNC anymore...

._. need this feature badly.

laxdragon commented 7 years ago

We want to use Kiwi as a front end to our ZNC but without a username field this is impossible.

ajvpot commented 7 years ago

Put "username/network:password" in the password field.
