NAME

POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::RTorrentStatus - A PoCo-IRC plugin which prints RTorrent status messages to IRC

SYNOPSIS

To quickly get an IRC bot with this plugin up and running, you can use App::Pocoirc:

 $ pocoirc -s irc.perl.org -j '#bots' -a 'RTorrentStatus{ "Channels": ["#bots"], "Torrent_log": "/tmp/torrentlog" }'

Or use it in your code:

 use POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::RTorrentStatus;

 # post status updates to #foobar
 $irc->plugin_add(Torrent => POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::RTorrentStatus->new(
     Torrent_log => '/tmp/torrentlog',
     Channels    => ['#foobar'],
 ));

DESCRIPTION

POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::RTorrentStatus is a POE::Component::IRC plugin. It reads a log file generated by the included irctor-queue program and posts messages to IRC describing the events. See the documentation for irctor-queue on how to set it up with RTorrent.
