module Io : sig ... end
type connection_t
val send : connection:connection_t -> Irc_message.t -> unit Io.t

Send the given message

val send_join : connection:connection_t -> channel:string -> unit Io.t

Send the JOIN command.

val send_nick : connection:connection_t -> nick:string -> unit Io.t

Send the NICK command.

val send_pass : connection:connection_t -> password:string -> unit Io.t

Send the PASS command.

val send_pong : connection:connection_t -> message:string -> unit Io.t

Send the PONG command.

val send_privmsg : connection:connection_t -> target:string -> message:string -> unit Io.t

Send the PRIVMSG command.

val send_notice : connection:connection_t -> target:string -> message:string -> unit Io.t

Send the NOTICE command.

val send_quit : connection:connection_t -> unit Io.t

Send the QUIT command.

val send_user : connection:connection_t -> username:string -> mode:int -> realname:string -> unit Io.t

Send the USER command.

val connect : ?username:string -> ?mode:int -> ?realname:string -> ?password:string -> ?config:Io.config -> addr:Io.inet_addr -> port:int -> nick:string -> unit -> connection_t Io.t

Connect to an IRC server at address addr. The PASS command will be sent if password is not None.

val connect_by_name : ?username:string -> ?mode:int -> ?realname:string -> ?password:string -> ?config:Io.config -> server:string -> port:int -> nick:string -> unit -> connection_t option Io.t

Try to resolve the server name using DNS, otherwise behaves like connect. Returns None if no IP could be found for the given name.

type keepalive = {
  1. mode : [ `Active | `Passive ];
  2. timeout : int;
}

Information on keeping the connection alive

val default_keepalive : keepalive

Default value for keepalive: active mode with auto-reconnect

val listen : ?keepalive:keepalive -> connection:connection_t -> callback:(connection_t -> Irc_message.parse_result -> unit Io.t) -> unit -> unit Io.t

listen connection callback listens for incoming messages on connection. All server pings are handled internally; all other messages are passed, along with connection, to callback.

val reconnect_loop : ?keepalive:keepalive -> after:int -> connect:(unit -> connection_t option Io.t) -> f:(connection_t -> unit Io.t) -> callback:(connection_t -> Irc_message.parse_result -> unit Io.t) -> unit -> unit Io.t

A combination of connect and listen that, every time the connection is terminated, tries to start a new one after after seconds.

  • parameter after

    time before trying to reconnect

  • parameter callback

    the callback for listen

  • parameter f

    the function to call after connection

val set_log : (string -> unit Io.t) -> unit

Set logging function
