Think of him as a ruby bot framework with a highly -modular design based around plugins. +rbot is designed around a flexible plugin system and is not only easy to +extend, but it already includes many useful plugins. Some of the powerful +features include: -## Install Guide +* Runtime configuration via irc +* Flexible authentication and permission system +* Plugin architecture that makes writing new plugins a breeze +* Integrated web service +* Batteries included: plugins for rss, twitter, imdb, translations, weather, notifications, lots of games and many more (over 70 plugins included) -Information about installing the bot can be found here: [Install-Guide](https://github.com/4poc/rbot/wiki/Install-Guide). +## Documentation -Notes on the registry and migrating from an old bot can be found here: [Registry-Migration-Notes](https://github.com/4poc/rbot/wiki/Registry-Migration-Notes). +For more information about rbot visit our [github wiki](https://github.com/ruby-rbot/rbot/wiki). -## Fork Changes - -- Ruby 2.1.1 is fully supported. -- Drops ruby 1.8 support, ruby >= 1.9.3 is required. -- Removes a lot of broken/outdated plugins. -- Removes the DRb remote interface due to its abysmal security. -- Introduces a [web service](https://github.com/4poc/rbot/wiki/Web-Service). -- Registry is now supporting DBM (that requires no external dependencies). -- [New standalone Backup/Restore Script](https://raw.github.com/4poc/rbot/fork/bin/rbotdb) for registry databases. -- Registry folders have now different names based on the adapter used: `~/.rbot/registry_` -- Added a bundler `Gemfile` to make installing the dependecies easier. - -## Known Problems - -* Ruby 2.0.0 (at least <=p353) is causing a segmentation fault crash that -only occurs after a few hours. This is [fixed](https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9168) in newer versions of ruby. - -* DBM (if using Barkeley DB, maybe other backends aswell) is requiring manual repairs to work after -a crash.
