Detailed Description

Base class for all InspIRCd modules This class is the base class for InspIRCd modules.

All modules must inherit from this class, its methods will be called when irc server events occur. class inherited from module must be instantiated by the ModuleFactory class (see relevent section) for the plugin to be initialised.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Module::Module (    )

Default constructor creates a module class. Definition at line 107 of file modules.cpp. { }

Module::~Module (    )  [virtual]

Default destructor destroys a module class. Definition at line 108 of file modules.cpp. { }

Member Function Documentation

Version Module::GetVersion (    )  [virtual]

Returns the version number of a Module. The method should return a Version object with its version information assigned via Version::Version Definition at line 119 of file modules.cpp. { return Version(1,0,0,0); }

virtual int Module::Module::OnUserPreJoin (  userrec *    user, chanrec *    chan, char *    cname )  [virtual]

Called whenever a user is about to join a channel, before any processing is done. Returning any nonzero value from this function stops the process immediately, causing no output to be sent to the user by the core. If you do this you must produce your own numerics, notices etc. This is useful for modules which may want to mimic +b, +k, +l etc. IMPORTANT NOTE! If the user joins a NEW channel which does not exist yet, OnUserPreJoin will be called BEFORE the channel record is created. This will cause chanrec* chan to be NULL. There is very little you can do in form of processing on the actual channel record at this point, however the channel NAME will still be passed in char* cname, so that you could for example implement a channel blacklist or whitelist, etc.

bool Module::OnExtendedMode (  userrec *    user, chanrec *    chan, char    modechar, int    type, bool    mode_on, string_list &    params )  [virtual]

Called whenever an extended mode is to be processed. The type parameter is MT_SERVER, MT_CLIENT or MT_CHANNEL, dependent on where the mode is being changed. mode_on is set when the mode is being set, in which case params contains a list of parameters for the mode as strings. If mode_on is false, the mode is being removed, and parameters may contain the parameters for the mode, dependent on wether they were defined when a mode handler was set up with Server::AddExtendedMode If the mode is not a channel mode, chanrec* chan is null, and should not be read from or written to. Definition at line 118 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnPacketReceive (  char *    p )  [virtual]

Called after a packet is received from another irc server. The packet is represented as a char*, as it should be regarded as a buffer, and not a string. This allows you to easily represent it in the correct ways to implement encryption, compression, digital signatures and anything else you may want to add. This should be regarded as a pre-processor and will be called immediately after the packet is received but before any other operations with the core of the ircd. Definition at line 114 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnPacketTransmit (  char *    p )  [virtual]

Called before a packet is transmitted across the irc network between two irc servers. The packet is represented as a char*, as it should be regarded as a buffer, and not a string. This allows you to easily represent it in the correct ways to implement encryption, compression, digital signatures and anything else you may want to add. This should be regarded as a pre-processor and will be called before ANY other operations within the ircd core program. Definition at line 113 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnRehash (    )  [virtual]

Called on rehash. This method is called prior to a /REHASH or when a SIGHUP is received from the operating system. You should use it to reload any files so that your module keeps in step with the rest of the application. Definition at line 115 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnServerRaw (  std::string &    raw, bool    inbound )  [virtual]

Called when a raw command is transmitted or received. This method is the lowest level of handler available to a module. It will be called with raw data which is passing through a connected socket. If you wish, you may munge this data by changing the string parameter "raw". If you do this, after your function exits it will immediately be cut down to 510 characters plus a carriage return and linefeed. Definition at line 116 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnUserConnect (  userrec *    user )  [virtual]

Called when a user connects. The details of the connecting user are available to you in the parameter userrec *user Definition at line 109 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnUserJoin (  userrec *    user, chanrec *    channel )  [virtual]

Called when a user joins a channel. The details of the joining user are available to you in the parameter userrec *user, and the details of the channel they have joined is available in the variable chanrec *channel Definition at line 111 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnUserPart (  userrec *    user, chanrec *    channel )  [virtual]

Called when a user parts a channel. The details of the leaving user are available to you in the parameter userrec *user, and the details of the channel they have left is available in the variable chanrec *channel Definition at line 112 of file modules.cpp. { }

void Module::OnUserQuit (  userrec *    user )  [virtual]

Called when a user quits. The details of the exiting user are available to you in the parameter userrec *user Definition at line 110 of file modules.cpp. { }
