## irc
|
||
|
||
Our main channel is on the [Newnet IRC Network](https://newnet.net).
|
||
The official channel for ~club is `#club`. Stop by and say hello!
|
||
|
||
> **New!** An *official secondary* channel is now open on the Zoite IRC
|
||
> Network in case Newnet ever has an outage (or if you just feel like
|
||
> hanging out elsewhere). Connect to **irc.zoite.net** on port **6670 SSL**
|
||
> and `/join #club` – same welcoming vibe, different network.
|
||
|
||
run `chat` to open [weechat](https://weechat.org) auto-connected to our irc
|
||
server. try launching [tmux](tmux.html), [byobu](https://superuser.com/a/423397)
|
||
or [screen](screen.html) to keep your chat session running.
|
||
|
||
other clients like irssi are available as well! just connect to **irc.newnet.net**
|
||
on port **6697 TLS** and `/join #club`.
|
||
|
||
feel free to use Newnet's [webchat](https://newnet.net/chat.php?channel=%23club) if
|
||
you prefer.
|
||
|
||
some channels might require you to register your nickname with NickServ to post in them (e.g. #meta). NickServ acts like a regular user, so you communicate with it through `/msg`. steps:
|
||
|
||
1. [optional] set nickname: `/nick YourNick` - not necessary with weechat, since it connects you under your tilde.club username
|
||
2. register: `/msg NickServ REGISTER YourPassword youremail@example.com` - you can use your tilde.club e-mail address for this
|
||
3. wait for registration email with confirmation code
|
||
4. confirm: `/msg NickServ CONFIRM someCode`
|
||
|
||
after this, every time you reconnect to irc you will have to identify with nickserv again: `/msg NickServ IDENTIFY YourPassword`.
|
||
|
||
weechat tip: NickServ replies and error messages appear in the first buffer `tilde weechat` (use Alt + up/down to switch).

## WeeChat relays
|
||
|
||
WeeChat introduced [UNIX domain socket relays](https://weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html#relay_unix_socket)
|
||
in version 2.5, which is a much easier way to offer per-user relay access.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
username.tildecities.com/weechat is configured to proxy to a per-user UNIX relay socket.
|
||
To get started:
|
||
|
||
1. In WeeChat:
|
||
|
||
* Set your relay password using `/secure`:
|
||
* `/secure set relay mysupersecretpassword`
|
||
* `/set relay.network.password "${sec.data.relay}"`
|
||
|
||
* Create the UNIX-socket relay.
|
||
|
||
* **tilde.club’s nginx proxy expects the socket in your home dir:**
|
||
* `/relay add unix.weechat ~/.weechat/relay_socket`
|
||
|
||
2. At your shell (permissions):
|
||
|
||
* Ensure nginx can traverse to the socket (execute-only is enough):
|
||
* `chmod o+x ~/.weechat`
|
||
|
||
* After WeeChat creates the socket, allow nginx to read/write it:
|
||
* `setfacl -m u:nginx:rw ~/.weechat/relay_socket`
|
||
|
||
3. In your relay client (WebSocket via tilde.club proxy):
|
||
|
||
WeeChat expects the WebSocket URI to end with `/weechat` for the weechat protocol.
|
||
(The tilde.club proxy endpoint should handle this mapping for you.)
|
||
|
||
* [glowing-bear](https://glowingbear.tilde.club/):
|
||
- relay host: `username.tildecities.com:443/weechat`
|
||
- relay port: `443`
|
||
- your relay password
|
||
|
||
* [weechat-android](https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android) and [lith](https://github.com/lithapp/lith):
|
||
- connection type: WebSocket (SSL/TLS)
|
||
- relay host: `username.tildecities.com`
|
||
- relay port: `443`
|
||
- websocket path: `/weechat`
|
||
- your relay password
|
||
|
||
### Removing old relays
|
||
|
||
List relays:
|
||
* `/relay listrelay` (or `/relay listfull`)
|
||
|
||
Delete a relay:
|
||
* `/relay del <name>`
|
||
|
||
(Example: `/relay del unix.weechat`.)
|
||

||
## IRC Bouncer (ZNC)
|
||
NOTE: Email deepend or message him on IRC if you require ZNC access.
|
||
|
||
You can find a ZNC IRC Bouncer by going to: [https://services.tilde.club/znc](https://services.tilde.club/znc).
|
||
Use your tilde.club username and password for login.
|
||
To connect to your ZNC its at services.tilde.club Port: 6699(SSL)
|
||
|
||
NOTE: long passwords fail to authenticate with the ZNC server.
