sopel-chanlogs

A channel logging plugin for Sopel IRC bots

Installing

Releases are hosted on PyPI, so after installing Sopel, all you need is pip:

$ pip install sopel-chanlogs

Enable the plugin with sopel-plugins enable chanlogs, if your bot configuration requires it.

Requirements

sopel-chanlogs requires only Sopel itself, version 8.0 or higher.

Usage

Configuration

The easiest way to configure sopel-chanlogs is via Sopel's configuration wizard—simply run sopel-plugins configure chanlogs and complete the prompts. All settings are optional, falling back on sensible defaults.

dir
Path to channel log storage directory. Default: ~/chanlogs
by_day
Split log files by day. Default: True
privmsg
Record private messages. Default: False
microseconds
Include microseconds in log timestamps. Default: False
localtime

Attempt to use preferred timezone (the bot's core.default_timezone) instead of UTC. Default: False

Please note that Sopel's default default_timezone is UTC.

Advanced configuration

Log line templates can be overridden using the relevant setting from this list:

  • message_template
  • action_template
  • join_template
  • part_template
  • quit_template
  • nick_template
  • topic_template

Each template is formatted using the following {placeholder} values:

  • the trigger, with all of its attributes (see Sopel's documentation)
  • the date in ISO format
  • the time in ISO format
  • the full datetime in ISO format

For convenience, the message_template also receives a message placeholder.

Please consult the plugin's code for current default templates.
