NAME POE::Filter::IRCv3 - POE::Filter::IRCD with IRCv3.2 message tags SYNOPSIS my $filter = IRC::Server::Pluggable::IRC::Filter->new(colonify => 1); ## Raw lines parsed to hashes: my $array_of_refs = $filter->get( [ $line1, $line ... ] ); ## Hashes deparsed to raw lines: my $array_of_lines = $filter->put( [ \%hash1, \%hash2 ... ] ); ## Stacked with a line filter, suitable for Wheel usage, etc: my $ircd = IRC::Server::Pluggable::IRC::Filter->new(colonify => 1); my $line = POE::Filter::Line->new( InputRegexp => '\015?\012', OutputLiteral => "\015\012", ); my $filter = POE::Filter::Stackable->new( Filters => [ $line, $ircd ], ); DESCRIPTION A POE::Filter for IRC traffic derived from POE::Filter::IRCD. Adds support for IRCv3.2 message tags. Like any proper POE::Filter, there are no POE-specific bits involved here; the filter can be used stand-alone to parse IRC traffic (see IRC::Toolkit::Parser). get_one_start, get_one, get_pending Implement the interface described in POE::Filter. See "get". get my $events = $filter->get( [ $line, $another, ... ] ); for my $event (@$events) { my $cmd = $event->{command}; ## See below for other keys available } Takes an ARRAY of raw lines and returns an ARRAY of HASH-type references with the following keys: command The (uppercased) command or numeric. params An ARRAY containing the event parameters. prefix The sender prefix, if any. tags A HASH of key => value pairs matching IRCv3.2 "message tags" -- see . Note that a tag can be present, but have an undefined value. put my $lines = $filter->put( [ $hash, $another_hash, ... ] ); for my $line (@$lines) { ## Direct to socket, etc } Takes an ARRAY of HASH-type references matching those described in "get" (documented above) and returns an ARRAY of raw IRC-formatted lines. colonify In addition to the keys described in "get", the colonify option can be specified for specific events. This controls whether or not the last parameter will be colon-prefixed even if it is a single word. (Yes, IRC is woefully inconsistent ...) Defaults to boolean false (off). clone Copy the filter object (with a cleared buffer). debug Turn on/off debug output.
