Rosella
|
||||
=======
|
||||
[](https://drone.io/github.com/eXeC64/Rosella/latest)
|
||||
About
|
||||
-----
|
||||
Rosella is a small ircd (Internet Relay Chat Daemon).
|
||||
It partially implements RFC1459, but will never be fully compliant.
|
||||
|
||||
Rosella is intended to provide a portable, light-weight, near-zero-conf
|
||||
ircd capable of handling many simultaneous connections, whilst providing
|
||||
as much privacy for its users as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Rosella *only* communicates with clients over SSL/TLS connections, therefore an
|
||||
x.509 certificate and private key are required for operation. Proper key
|
||||
handling and certificate checking is the responsibility of the users. Rosella
|
||||
cannot protect you from stupidity or untrustworthy CA's.
|
||||
|
||||
Features
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Rosella is a stand-alone server, and does not support server→server
|
||||
communication or services→server communication. Basic services are expected to
|
||||
be provided by IRC bots.
|
||||
|
||||
The following channel modes are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
* s - Secret. The channel is hidden from /LIST unless you are already in it.
|
||||
* n - No external. Only users in the channel may send messages to it.
|
||||
* t - Topic Locked. Only operators may set the topic.
|
||||
* m - Moderated. Only users with voice or operators may talk.
|
||||
|
||||
The following irc commands are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
* INFO
|
||||
* JOIN
|
||||
* KICK
|
||||
* KILL
|
||||
* LIST
|
||||
* MODE
|
||||
* NICK
|
||||
* OPER
|
||||
* PART
|
||||
* PRIVMSG
|
||||
* QUIT
|
||||
* TOPIC
|
||||
* USER
|
||||
* VERSION
|
||||
|
||||
Download
|
||||
--------
|
||||
The latest x86-64 build of Rosella is available from Drone.io's continuous
|
||||
integration service.
|
||||
|
||||
[Download Latest Build](https://drone.io/github.com/eXeC64/Rosella/files/Rosella)
|
||||
|
||||
If you would rather review the code and then compile it yourself then run this
|
||||
on a system with Go 1.1.2 or later installed.
|
||||
|
||||
~~~
|
||||
go get github.com/eXeC64/Rosella
|
||||
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/eXeC64/Rosella
|
||||
~~~
|
||||
|
||||
You can then browse and review the source code at your leisure before compiling
|
||||
it by running `go build`.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage
|
||||
-----
|
||||
Command line options can be found by running `Rosella -h`.
|
||||
|
||||
###x.509 Certificate###
|
||||
Rosella expects you to provide a valid x.509 certificate and private key.
|
||||
You can generate these yourself with openssl, or obtain one from a certificate
|
||||
authority you trust.
|
||||
|
||||
###Auth File###
|
||||
The auth file provides a list of usernames and hashed passwords that the /OPER
|
||||
command will accept. The format is one username and password pair per line.
|
||||
Lines starting with a `#` are ignored as comments, as are blank lines. The
|
||||
password is hashed with bcrypt. Username and password are placed on the same
|
||||
line and separated by a single space, as such:
|
||||
|
||||
#This line is a comment
|
||||
username1 bcrypt_hashed_password
|
||||
|
||||
#Another comment, blank lines are ignored
|
||||
username2 bcrypt_hashed_password
|
||||
username3 bcrypt_hashed_password
|
||||
|
||||
**Treat this file as you would treat a private key file.**
|
||||
|
||||
Design Principles
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
* Rosella will not spy upon its users, or log them in any way.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rosella will not communicate with any users in plaintext.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rosella will not provide any mechanism for identifying other users beyond
|
||||
their nicknames.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rosella will not allow any user to spy upon any other user.
|
||||
|
||||
* Rosella's source code will be kept as easy to review as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributing
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Patches and pull requests for new features and code clean ups are welcome as
|
||||
long as they follow the design principles.
