tildeverse irc

hi teammates!

the tilde.chat irc network is available at irc.tilde.chat:6697 (with ssl) as a round robin of available nodes.

this is the beginning of the tilde.chat irc federation! more info on that site.

here are some options to connect:

• weechat when logged in with ssh
• irssi
• znc - log in with your shell password and configure as needed
• run webirc to register your thelounge account for our webchat note that thelounge does not authenticate with your shell password.
• any other client that you like: connect to our node at team.tilde.chat:6697 with ssl

local connections (weechat, irssi, znc) can use 6667 without ssl

weechat relays

weechat introduced unix socket relays in version 2.5 which is a much easier way to offer per-user relay access.

.ttm.sh/weechat is configured to proxy to the default unix relay socket location (~/.weechat/relay_socket). to get started using it, follow these steps.

in weechat:

• /relay add unix.weechat %h/relay_socket
• /set relay.network.password mysupersecretpassword - don't use this password of course. note that you might already have this set.

at your shell:

• chmod o+rw ~/.weechat/relay_socket - note that other members of the team group are not included in the granted permissions. this allows nginx to connect to your socket on your behalf

in your relay client:

• glowing-bear:

  • .ttm.sh
  • port 443
  • your relay password

• weechat-android:

  • connection type: websocket (ssl)
  • websocket path: weechat
  • relay host: .ttm.sh
  • relay port: 443
  • your relay password
