This Thursday I’m going to talk about PHP and IRC bots at the UPHPU meeting. I recently wrote an IRC bot in PHP using the Net_SmartIRC library. For now the bot, raifbot, has been living in #uphpu on freenode. It understands some basic commands, like: $lart
I’ll talk about the basics of getting started with Net_SmartIRC as well the details of how raifbot works. Bring some ideas on new features you’d like to see in raifbot and we’ll add some of them live, during the meeting.
The UPHPU meeting is still at the Code Greene offices in down town Salt Lake City, but they’ve moved:
Please note the new location of Code Greene’s office, around the corner on State Street, between Charles Schwab on 300 S and America First/Five Star Restaurant/Gallivan Avenue. On street parking is usually plentiful, free after 6, and might be the best option, but there are garages there too
