aioircd

A minimalist python asynchronous IRC server built on top of Trio.

Installation and Usage

Download and install the latest stable version using pip. Windows users might replace python3 by py.

The configuration is done via environment variables, see --help:

Scope

We try to both keep only implement the most important commands and to make sure all modern IRC clients are working. If you are having troubles using aioircd with your client feel free to open an issue.

Stuff we don't plan to support: server connections, user modes, channel modes.
