NAME

       POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::CycleEmpty - A PoCo-IRC plugin which cycles channels if they become empty
       and opless.

SYNOPSIS

        use POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::CycleEmpty;

        $irc->plugin_add('CycleEmpty', POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::CycleEmpty->new());

DESCRIPTION

       POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::CycleEmpty is a POE::Component::IRC plugin. When a channel member quits,
       gets kicked, or parts, the plugin will cycle the channel if the IRC component is alone on that channel
       and is not a channel operator. If there was a topic or a key set on the channel, they will be restored
       upon rejoining.

       This is useful for regaining ops in small channels if the IRC network does not have ChanServ or IRCNet's
       +R channel mode.

       This plugin requires the IRC component to be POE::Component::IRC::State or a subclass thereof.

METHODS

   "new"
       Returns a plugin object suitable for feeding to POE::Component::IRC's "plugin_add" method.

   "is_cycling"
       One argument:

       A channel name

       Returns 1 if the plugin is currently cycling that channel, 0 otherwise.  Useful if need to ignore the
       fact that the Component just parted the channel in question.
