An advanced and scriptable PHP IRC bot.

It is designed to run off a local LAMP, WAMP, MAMP stack or just plain PHP installation. No web server is required, only a working PHP installation.

System requirements
-------------------

[](#system-requirements)

In order to run WildPHP, we ask a few things from your system. Notably:

- A PHP version equal to or higher than **7.1.0**.
- Command-line access to the system you plan on running WildPHP on.
    - WildPHP will **NOT** run inside a web server like Apache or Nginx. Do not ask for support for doing so.
- WildPHP has been tested to work on **Linux** and **macOS**. Other platforms are not supported and not guaranteed to work.
- For the best experience, we recommend either using the included **systemd** service (adjust it to your needs) or using **[tmux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmux)** or **[screen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen)** to allow the bot to run in the background.

IRC Community &amp; Support
---------------------------

[](#irc-community--support)

If you need help or just want to idle in the IRC channel join us at [\#wildphp@irc.freenode.net](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=wildphp). Development discussion in [\#wildphp-dev@irc.freenode.net](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=wildphp-dev).

Features and Functions
----------------------

[](#features-and-functions)

Right now this version of the bot is under heavy development, therefore the feature list is not definitive. We will update this once a reliable list becomes available.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install the latest development build, you need [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). Install WildPHP using the following commands:

```
$ git clone https://github.com/WildPHP/irc-bot
$ cd irc-bot
$ composer install

```

This will pull all Composer dependencies required to run the bot.

**Please note that the bot may be unstable and that it might not even start. Please file a bug if you encounter an issue!**

### Configuration

[](#configuration)

Copy the example configuration file and edit it to suit your needs. Carefully read the comments.

```
$ cp config/config.sample.php config/config.php

```

Running the bot
---------------

[](#running-the-bot)

While you can run the bot in a terminal it is best to run it in [tmux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmux) or [screen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen) so that it can run in background.

```
$ php bin/wildphp.php

```

Alternatively, a `systemd` service is included. Edit it (carefully read the comments), then drop it in `/etc/systemd/system/`. Issue a `systemctl daemon-reload` afterwards and you should be able to use the service.
