Ubuntu Manpage: kgb.conf -- KGB bot configuration file

NAME

       kgb.conf -- KGB bot configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       kgb.conf is the main configuration file of the KGB bot. Its location is in /etc/kgb-bot/
       unless changed with the --conf command line option. See kgb-bot(1).

       The file format is YAML. Elaborate example configuration is at the end of this document.

Settings

soap
A map with the following possible keys:

server_addr
IP address to listen to. Defaults to 127.0.0.1.

For making KGB bot listen on all addresses, set the value to 0.0.0.0.

server_port
Port to listen to.

service_name
SOAP service name. Defaults to "KGB".

pid_dir
Directory to store PID file to. Defaults to /var/run/kgb-bot/.

include
Path to file with additional configuration. May be a path to a directory, in which case
all files in it ending with ".conf" are loaded, in alphabetical order.

min_protocol_version
Minimum version of the protocol that will be supported by the server. Defaults to 1.
Protocol version 0 has no authentication.

queue_limit
When messages are sent to IRC, there is certain rate limitting, which may prevent the
message to be sent right away. In this case messages are enqueued, and this parameter
configures the size of the queue. When the queue is full client requests are rejected.

repositories
A map with keys project names and values maps with project details:

password
Password used for authenticating all requests from this project.

username
The username presented to the network.

password
A password for the network.

flood
If defined to a true value, the built-in rate-limitting feature of the IRC component
will be turned off. WARNING: this may cause the bot to be kicked off the IRC network.
Use only when you control both the bot and the IRC network (e.g. when testing).

channels

smart_answers
Each channel can contain separate list of smart answers, see below.

smart_answers
A list of strings to be used as replies when the bot is addressed on IRC.

smart_answers_polygen
If set to a true value, polygen(1) will be used to generate replies when the bot is
addressed on IRC.

debug
Enables logging of additional diagnostic information.

admins
A list of IRC masks, used to determine if a given IRC nick is bot administrator. Note that
currently these nicks have no additional power.
