ircamp's Issues

YouTube Embed Conversion

Campfire delivers HTML for YouTube videos. Convert this into a simple YouTube URL for IRC.

Proxy Support

Is there any HTTP proxy support included or planned?

Image Conversion

Campfire delivers HTML for images. Convert this into a simple image URL for IRC.

URL Filter strips everything outside the <a> tag

Link Conversion

Campfire delivers HTML for links. Convert this into a simple URL for IRC.

Unicode in normal messages breaks bot

Expose each Campfire user as a separate IRC nick

The Campfire-IRC bridge would feel much more native if each Campfire message were relayed to IRC from a nick dedicated to the originating user (rather than sending all from a single bot, prefixed with the Campfire-side username).

Structurally, this would seem to require refactoring the current design---where the relay is built into the IRC client, which contains the Campfire client as a slave---into a single top-level centralized relay agent, which contains multiple IRC clients (and one or more Campfire clients) as slaves.

Twitter URL => twictures, both ways

irc /actions => campfire /actions

Unicode entities not converted in normal speech

For example:

<bot> Scott: you're like \u0026quot;excuse me, but I'm a
keynoter...\u0026quot;

Support multi-user relay of an entire room between IRC and Campfire

ircamp is an awesome start. However, in the case where multiple people want to use IRC, it currently appears to require a dedicated instance, and, more significantly, a dedicated room per-user. This latter problem is more subtle: placing multiple single-user bots in the same IRC room would not only result in duplicate messages being replayed from Campfire to IRC, but could create an infinite loop in which each would constantly relay the postings of the others from Campfire to IRC and these would in turn be relayed back to Campfire.

Far more ideal would be a single bot which relayed an entire room between IRC and Campfire. This bot would include a mapping between IRC nicks and Campfire users (with credentials). Consolidating the relay through a single bot would allow centralized knowledge of what was being relayed where, avoiding the posting echo problem.
