Fails to connect via SSL #645

Closed uputz closed 10 years ago

uputz commented 10 years ago

Is there some trick to getting this to connect via ssl? it seems not to like any ssl port — thanks.

this works:

host = irc.server.net serverport = 2688 ircport = 6669

this doesn't:

host = irc.server.net serverport = 2688 ircport = 6697

The IRC library we are using most likely doesn't support SSL. Anybody want to look into it?

csssuf commented 10 years ago

I think our best bet is to throw our collective efforts behind iirc, unless you'd prefer to keep it your own project.

sckasturi commented 10 years ago

I think this is a non issue, as even SupyBots and Eggdrop bots do not support SSL. As such, we do not need to support SSL.

csssuf commented 10 years ago

That's not a good way to approach this. Why should lack of a feature in other IRC bot frameworks prevent us from implementing it? If anything, that is even more of a motivator for us to implement SSL; it gives this bot an advantage over those other bots.

I agree with @csssuf - we should work on IIRC.

uputz commented 10 years ago

@TechFilmer — unfortunately not everyone is comfortable using non-secured connections. @csssuf, @fwilson42 — you've definitely got the right attitude; that's the only way things ever improve.

If you need an example of a python irc bot that implements SSL without issues: https://github.com/cjones/madcow

~ thanks for your attention on this :)

Fixed.
