IRC services for InspIRCd networks, written in Rust. NickServ, ChanServ, and a dozen more, backed by an append-only event log instead of a database. https://echo.dev.tronic.pro

Fix InspIRCd UID and message-tag parsing; add irctest controller
The UID introduction omitted the second user field (insp sends both a real and a
displayed user), and the parser didn't strip IRCv3 message-tag prefixes, so
tagged PRIVMSGs addressed to a service were dropped. With both fixed a service
links to a real insp4 uplink and answers commands. Adds an irctest services
controller so this is verified against an isolated, throwaway ircd.

fedserv

A federated IRC services daemon in Rust. Protocol-agnostic core, InspIRCd link first.

Clean-room — inspired by the ideas behind modern event-log/gossip services, not derived from any project's source.

Design

  • proto/ — the ircd link layer. A Protocol trait maps raw server-to-server lines to/from a normalized NetEvent/NetAction model. The engine never touches a raw line, so a new ircd = one new module. InspIRCd is the first.
  • engine/ — the services engine: live network state, an EventLog (every persistent change is an Event; state is a fold over the log — this is what makes replicating across nodes a later addition, not a rewrite), and the Service trait.
  • services/ — the pseudo-clients: NickServ first, then ChanServ / OperServ / …

Run

cp config.example.toml config.toml   # edit uplink + link password
cargo run -- config.toml

Status

Early scaffold: links to an InspIRCd uplink and introduces NickServ. Burst/mode handling and account persistence are next.
