# HexChat Frequently Asked Questions
## Using HexChat
### How do I autoconnect and join a channel when HexChat loads?
In the Network list select the Network you want to auto-connect to and
click Edit and turn ON the "Auto connect to this network at startup"
checkbox.
List channels in the favorites list to join them on connect.
### Why does HexChat join channels before identifying?
When using the nickserv password HexChat waits a short time before joining.
To change this value (which is in seconds) by running:
> /set irc\_join\_delay number
The other option is SASL which is network dependent and can be enabled in the Network list (2.9.4+).
### How do I connect through a proxy?
Go to the menus, _Settings_ `->` _Preferences_ `->` _Network Setup_ and fill in
the requested information there. Authentication (using a username and
password) is only supported for HTTP and Socks5.
### How do I show @ and + in front of nicknames that are Op and Voice when they talk?
To display @ and + characters next to nicknames as they talk, do the
following:
In the menus, open up _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_. Find the
_Channel Message_ event in the list. The $3 code can be inserted to
print the user's mode-character (e.g. @ or +). For example, you might
want to change the default:
> %C18%H<%H$4$1%H>%H%O$t$2
To
> %C18%H<%H$4$3$1%H>%H%O$t$2
Don't forget to **press Enter**, so the changes take effect in the list at
the top of the window.
### How do I change the Op and Voice userlist icons and Tree View icons?
HexChat allows you to override the default icons. To use this feature, first create the required folder:
* Unix/Linux
> ~/.config/hexchat/icons
* Windows
> %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\icons
The required file names:
* **tray icon:**
* tray\_fileoffer.png
* tray\_highlight.png
* tray\_message.png
* hexchat.png
* **channel tree:**
* tree\_channel.png
* tree\_dialog.png
* tree\_server.png
* tree\_util.png _(Channel List, DCC, etc (if enabled as tabs))_
* **user list:**
* ulist\_voice.png
* ulist\_halfop.png
* ulist\_op.png
* ulist\_owner.png _(1 level above op)_
* ulist\_founder.png _(2 levels above op)_
* ulist\_netop.png _(3 levels above op)_
You can hide either of them in _Preferences_.
### How do I set different ban types?
1. Right click the nickname in the userlist, and choose a ban type from the "Kick/Ban" submenu.
2. You can also do it manually:
> /ban nick bantype where the bantype is a number from 0 to 3.
3. Or set the default with:
> /set irc\_ban\_type bantype sets the default ban type to use for all bans. The different types are:
>
> - 0 = \*!*@*.host
> - 1 = \*!*@domain
> - 2 = \*!*user@*.host
> - 3 = \*!*user@domain
### Why does the timestamp overlap some nicknames?
Some networks allow very long nicknames (up to 32 letters). It can be
annoying to have the separator bar move too far to the right, just for
one long nick. Therefore, it has a set limit for the distance it will
move to the right. If you use a large font, you may need to adjust this
distance. It is set in pixels, for example:
> /set text\_max\_indent 320
Once you adjust this setting high enough, overlapping timestamps and
nicknames should not occur. The adjustment will not take effect
immediately, a restart may be needed.
### How do I turn on Conference mode where I will not see join or part messages?
Right-click on the tab you want to change. In the submenu of the channel
name, there's a toggle-item "Show join/part messages", simply turn this
off.
If you want to turn this option on globally go to _Preferences_ `->` _Advanced_.
Then all channels you join **after** setting this will start with "Show
join/part messages" turned off.
### Why doesn't DCC send work behind a router (IPNat/ADSL)?
If you are behind a IP-NAT or ADSL router, you will most likely have an
address like 192.168.0.1. This address is not usable on the Internet,
and must be translated.
When offering a DCC file, HexChat will tell the receiver your address.
If it says 192.168.0.1, the receiver will not be able to connect. One
way to make it send your "real" address is to enable the "Get my IP from
IRC Server" option in HexChat. This option is available in
_Preferences_ `->` _File Transfers_. When you turn it ON, you will have
to re-login to the server before it'll take effect.
You will also need to forward some ports for use in DCC send. You may
pick almost any port range you wish, for example, in HexChat set:
> First DCC send port: 4990
> Last DCC send port: 5000
This will allow you to send up to ten files at the same time, which
should be plenty for most people. Lastly, configure your router/modem to
forward ports 4990-5000 to your PC's address. You'll have to consult
your router/modem's manual on how to do this.
### How do I execute multiple commands in one line?
There are three ways to do this:
* /LOAD -e &lt;textfile>, where &lt;textfile> is a full pathname to a
file containing commands on each line.
* Separate your commands with CTRL-SHIFT-u-a. This will appear as a little box with numbers onit.
* You can create two UserCommands, with the same name, and then execute the UserCommand.
It will be executed in the same order as it's written in the UserCommands GUI.
### I get this error: "Unknown file type abc.yz. Maybe you need to install the Perl or Python plugin?"
If you get this error when trying to load a Perl or Python script, it
means the plugin for running those scripts isn't loaded.
* The Perl, Python and TCL plugins come with HexChat in the same archive.
* During ./configure, it will check for Perl, Python and TCL libs and headers, you should check if it failed there.
* The plugins directory can be found by issuing the shell command
> hexchat -p
* All *.so files are auto-loaded at startup (*.dll on Windows).
* If you downloaded a binary package, maybe the packager decided to exclude the Perl or Python plugins.
### How do I play sound files on certain events?
In the menus, go to: _Settings_ `->` _Preferences_ `->` _Sound_. Select the event
you want to make a sound on, then type in a sound filename (or use the Browse button).
### How do I auto-load scripts at startup?
The root of your HexChat config is:
* Windows: %APPDATA%\\HexChat
* Unix/Linux: ~/.config/hexchat
Referred to as &lt;config> from now. HexChat automatically loads, at startup:
* &lt;config>/addons/*.lua Lua scripts
* &lt;config>/addons/*.pl Perl scripts
* &lt;config>/addons/*.py Python scripts
* &lt;config>/addons/*.tcl Tcl scripts
* &lt;config>/addons/*.dll Plugins (Windows)
* &lt;config>/addons/*.so Plugins (Unix)
You may need to create the _addons_ folder manually.
### How do I minimize HexChat to the System Tray (Notification Area)?
On both Unix and Windows there is an included tray plugin. To enable minimizing to tray on exit:
> /set gui\_tray\_close on
For minimizing to tray on minimize:
> /set gui\_tray\_minimize on
Alerts for this tray are in _Preferences_ `->` _Alerts_.
The other option is Windows only, called HexTray. It is included with the installer.
Right click on the tray icon for its options.
### Where are the log files saved to?
* Unix/Linux
> ~/.config/hexchat/logs
* Windows
> %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs
### How do I rotate log files every so often?
By default settings, no rotation occurs, your log files will just keep getting larger.
Go to _Settings_ `->` _Preferences_ `->` _Logging_ and change the log filename to any one of these:
> %Y-%m-%d/%n-%c.log ->2006-12-30/FreeNode-\#channel.log
>
> %n/%Y-%m-%d/%c.log ->FreeNode/2006-12-30/\#channel.log
>
> %n/%c.log -> FreeNode/\#channel.log (no rotation)
%Y, %m and %d represents the current year, month and day respectively.
%n is the network name, e.g. "FreeNode" or "UnderNet", and finally, %c
is the channel. In these examples, a new log filename and folder would
be created after midnight.
You can find more possibilities at [http://xchat.org/docs/log/](http://xchat.org/docs/log/).
### Where did the Real Name field go?
The real name field is now removed from the Network List. This is in
order to avoid alienating newcomers (some might be afraid of their
personal data).
The network-specific real name can still be set via the GUI. If you want
to modify the global real name, just issue the following command:
> /set irc\_real\_name Stewie Griffin
### How do I migrate my settings from XChat?
* UNIX/Linux
> 1. Copy ~/.xchat2 to ~/.config/hexchat
> 2. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchat.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/hexchat.conf
> 3. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/xchatlogs to ~/.config/hexchat/logs
> 4. Move all your 3rd party addons to ~/.config/hexchat/addons
> 5. Rename ~/.config/hexchat/plugin\_\*.conf to ~/.config/hexchat/addon\_\*.conf
* Windows
> 1. Copy %APPDATA%\\X-Chat 2 to %APPDATA%\\HexChat
> 2. Rename %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchat.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\hexchat.conf
> 3. Rename %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\xchatlogs to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\logs
> 4. Move all your 3rd party addons to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addons
> 5. Rename %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\plugin\_\*.conf to %APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addon\_\*.conf
## Contributions, Development and Bugs.
### I found a bug, what can I do?
Firstly, make sure it's the latest stable version of HexChat.
If you still experience issues, you can search for the issue on
[GitHub](https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat/issues?state=open)
if it has not been reported open an issue with as much detail as possible.
### Can I write a new language translation for HexChat?
You sure can, but I don't accept translations directly. They must be
done through the
[Transifex Project](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/hexchat/).
You simply register on the site, then you can apply for membership in a translation
team via the web interface. Approvals are done manually so it might take a few days
for you to be approved. Also bear in mind that the email address with which you
register on Transifex will be visible in the translation files.
If you want to test your translation in action:
* Download your translation from Transifex
* Open the downloaded _.po_ file with [Poedit](http://www.poedit.net/)
* Simply press _Save_ in Poedit, which causes it to generate a _.mo_ file next to the _.po_ file
* Copy the generated _.mo_ file to _HexChat \ locale \ &lt;language code> \ LC\_MESSAGES \ hexchat.mo_
* Restart HexChat

# HexChat Perl Interface
## Introduction
This is the Perl interface for HexChat. If there are any problems, questions, comments or
suggestions please email them to the address on the bottom of this page.
## Constants
###Priorities
* **`Xchat::PRI_HIGHEST`**
* **`Xchat::PRI_HIGH`**
* **`Xchat::PRI_NORM`**
* **`Xchat::PRI_LOW`**
* **`Xchat::PRI_LOWEST`**
### Return values
* **`Xchat::EAT_NONE`** - pass the event along
* **`Xchat::EAT_XCHAT`** - don't let HexChat see this event
* **`Xchat::EAT_PLUGIN`** - don't let other scripts and plugins see this event but xchat will still see it
* **`Xchat::EAT_ALL`** - don't let anything else see this event
#### Timer and fd hooks
* **`Xchat::KEEP`** - keep the timer going or hook watching the handle
* **`Xchat::REMOVE`** - remove the timer or hook watching the handle
### hook\_fd flags
* **`Xchat::FD_READ`** - invoke the callback when the handle is ready for reading
* **`Xchat::FD_WRITE`** - invoke the callback when the handle is ready for writing
* **`Xchat::FD_EXCEPTION`** - invoke the callback if an exception occurs
* **`Xchat::FD_NOTSOCKET`** - indicate that the handle being hooked is not a socket
## Functions
### `Xchat::register( $name, $version, [$description,[$callback]] )`
* `$name` - The name of this script
* `$version` - This script's version
* `$description` - A description for this script
* `$callback` - This is a function that will be called when the is script
unloaded. This can be either a reference to a
function or an anonymous sub reference.
This is the first thing to call in every script.
### `Xchat::hook_server( $message, $callback, [\%options] )`
### `Xchat::hook_command( $command, $callback, [\%options] )`
### `Xchat::hook_print( $event,$callback, [\%options] )`
### `Xchat::hook_timer( $timeout,$callback, [\%options | $data] )`
### `Xchat::hook_fd( $handle, $callback, [ \%options ] )`
These functions can be to intercept various events.
hook\_server can be used to intercept any incoming message from the IRC server.
hook\_command can be used to intercept any command, if the command doesn't currently exist then a new one is created.
hook\_print can be used to intercept any of the events listed in _Setttings_ `->` _Text Events_.
hook\_timer can be used to create a new timer
* **`$message`** - server message to hook such as PRIVMSG
* **`$command`** - command to intercept, without the leading /
* **`$event`** - one of the events listed in _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_
* **`$timeout`** - timeout in milliseconds
* **`$handle`** - the I/O handle you want to monitor with hook\_fd. This must be something that has a fileno. See perldoc -f fileno or [fileno](http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/fileno.html)
* **`$callback`** - callback function, this is called whenever
the hooked event is trigged, the following are
the conditions that will trigger the different hooks.
This can be either a reference to a
function or an anonymous sub reference.
* **`\%options`** - a hash reference containing addional options for the hooks
Valid keys for \%options:
<table border="1"> <tr>
<td>data</td> <td>Additional data that is to be associated with the<br />
hook. For timer hooks this value can be provided either as<br />
<code>Xchat::hook_timer( $timeout, $cb,{data=&gt;$data})</code><br />
or <code>Xchat::hook_timer( $timeout, $cb, $data )</code>.<br />
However, this means that hook_timer cannot be provided<br />
with a hash reference containing data as a key.<br /> example:<br />
my $options = { data =&gt; [@arrayOfStuff] };<br />
Xchat::hook_timer( $timeout, $cb, $options );<br />
<br />
In this example, the timer's data will be<br />
[@arrayOfStuff] and not { data =&gt; [@arrayOfStuff] }<br />
<br />
This key is valid for all of the hook functions.<br />
<br />
Default is undef.<br />
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>priority</td> <td>Sets the priority for the hook.<br />
It can be set to one of the
<code>Xchat::PRI_*</code> constants.<br />
<br />
This key only applies to server, command
and print hooks.<br />
<br />
Default is <code>Xchat::PRI_NORM</code>.
</td> </tr> <tr>
<td>help_text</td> <td>Text displayed for /help $command.<br />
<br />
This key only applies to command hooks.<br />
<br />
Default is "".
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>flags</td> <td>Specify the flags for a fd hook.<br />
<br />
See <a href="#hook_fd_flags">hook fd flags</a> section for valid values.<br />
<br />
On Windows if the handle is a pipe you specify<br />
Xchat::FD_NOTSOCKET in addition to any other flags you might be using.<br />
<br />
This key only applies to fd hooks.<br />
Default is Xchat::FD_READ
</td>
</tr></table><p>
#### When callbacks are invoked
Each of the hooks will be triggered at different times depending on the type
of hook.
<table border="1"> <tr style="background-color: #dddddd">
<td>Hook Type</td> <td>When the callback will be invoked</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>server hooks</td> <td>a <code>$message</code> message is
received from the server
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>command hooks</td> <td>the <code>$command</code> command is
executed, either by the user or from a script
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>print hooks</td> <td>X-Chat is about to print the message for the
<code>$event</code> event
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>timer hooks</td> <td>called every <code>$timeout</code> milliseconds
(1000 millisecond is 1 second)<br />
the callback will be executed in the same context where
the hook_timer was called, if the context no longer exists
then it will execute in a random context
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>fd hooks</td> <td>depends on the flags that were passed to hook_fd<br />
See <a href="#hook_fd_flags">hook_fd flags</a> section.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The value return from these hook functions can be passed to `Xchat::unhook` to remove the hook.
#### Callback Arguments
All callback functions will receive their arguments in `@_` like every other Perl subroutine.
Server and command callbacks
`$_[0]` - array reference containing the IRC message or command and arguments broken into words
example:
/command arg1 arg2 arg3
`$_[0][0]` - command
`$_[0][1]` - arg1
`$_[0][2]` - arg2
`$_[0][3]` - arg3
`$_[1]` - array reference containing the Nth word to the last word
example:
/command arg1 arg2 arg3
`$_[1][0]` - command arg1 arg2 arg3
`$_[1][1]` - arg1 arg2 arg3
`$_[1][2]` - arg2 arg3
`$_[1][3]` - arg3
`$_[2]` - the data that was passed to the hook function
Print callbacks
`$_[0]` - array reference containing the values for the text event, see _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_
`$_[1]` - the data that was passed to the hook function
Timer callbacks
`$_[0]` - the data that was passed to the hook function
fd callbacks
`$_[0]` - the handle that was passed to hook\_fd
`$_[1]` - flags indicating why the callback was called
`$_[2]` - the data that was passed to the hook function
#### Callback return values
All server, command and print callbacks should return one of the `Xchat::EAT_*` constants.
Timer callbacks can return `Xchat::REMOVE` to remove the timer or `Xchat::KEEP` to keep it going.
#### Miscellaneous Hook Related Information
For server hooks, if `$message` is "RAW LINE" then `$cb`> will be called for every IRC message that HexChat receives.
For command hooks if `$command` is "" then `$cb` will be called for messages entered by the user that is not a command.
For print hooks besides those events listed in _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_, these additional events can be used.
<table border="1"> <tr style="background-color: #dddddd">
<td>Event</td> <td>Description</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"Open Context"</td> <td>a new context is created</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"Close Context"</td> <td>a context has been close</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"Focus Tab"</td> <td>when a tab is brought to the front</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"Focus Window"</td> <td>when a top level window is focused or the
main tab window is focused by the window manager
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"DCC Chat Text"</td> <td>when text from a DCC Chat arrives.
<code>$_[0]</code> will have these values<br />
<br />
<code>$_[0][0]</code> - Address<br />
<code>$_[0][1]</code> - Port<br />
<code>$_[0][2]</code> - Nick<br />
<code>$_[0][3]</code> - Message<br />
</td>
</tr> <tr>
<td>"Key Press"</td> <td>used for intercepting key presses<br />
$_[0][0] - key value<br />
$_[0][1] - state bitfield, 1 - shift, 4 - control, 8 - alt<br />
$_[0][2] - string version of the key which might be empty for unprintable keys<br />
$_[0][3] - length of the string in $_[0][2]<br />
</td>
</tr>

### `Xchat::unhook( $hook )`
* **`$hook` - the hook that was previously returned by one of the `Xchat::hook_*` functions**
This function is used to removed a hook previously added with one of the `Xchat::hook_*` functions.
It returns the data that was passed to the `Xchat::hook_*` function when the hook was added.
### `Xchat::print( $text | \@lines, [$channel,[$server]] )`
* **`$text` - the text to print**
* **`\@lines` - array reference containing lines of text to be printed all the elements will be joined together before printing**
* **`$channel` - channel or tab with the given name where `$text` will be printed**
* **`$server` - specifies that the text will be printed in a channel or tab that is associated with `$server`**
The first argument can either be a string or an array reference of strings.
Either or both of `$channel` and `$server` can be undef.
If called as `Xchat::print( $text )`, it will always return true.
If called with either the channel or the channel and the server
specified then it will return true if a context is found and
false otherwise. The text will not be printed if the context
is not found. The meaning of setting `$channel` or `$server` to
undef is the same as find\_context.
### `Xchat::printf( $format, LIST )`
* **`$format` - a format string, see "perldoc -f [sprintf](http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/sprintf.html)" for further details**
* **`LIST` - list of values for the format fields**
### `Xchat::command( $command | \@commands, [$channel,[$server]] )`
* **`$command` - the command to execute, without the leading /**
* **`\@commands` - array reference containing a list of commands to execute**
* **`$channel` - channel or tab with the given name where `$command` will be executed**
* **`$server` - specifies that the command will be executed in a channel or tab that is associated with `$server`**
The first argument can either be a string or an array reference of strings.
Either or both of `$channel` and `$server` can be undef.
If called as `Xchat::command( $command )`, it will always return true.
If called with either the channel or the channel and the server
specified then it will return true if a context is found and false
otherwise. The command will not be executed if the context is not found.
The meaning of setting `$channel` or `$server` to undef is the same as find\_context.
### `Xchat::commandf( $format, LIST )`
* **`$format` - a format string, see "perldoc -f [sprintf](http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/sprintf.html)" for further details**
* **`LIST` - list of values for the format fields**
### `Xchat::find_context( [$channel, [$server]] )`
* **`$channel` - name of a channel**
* **`$server` - name of a server**
Either or both of `$channel` and `$server` can be undef. Calling
`Xchat::find_context()` is the same as calling `Xchat::find_context( undef, undef)` and
`Xchat::find_context( $channel )` is the same as `Xchat::find_context( $channel, undef )`.
If `$server` is undef, find any channel named `$channel`. If `$channel` is undef, find the front most window
or tab named `$server`.If both `$channel` and `$server` are undef, find the currently focused tab or window.
Return the context found for one of the above situations or undef if such
a context cannot be found.
### `Xchat::get_context()`
Returns the current context.
### `Xchat::set_context( $context | $channel,[$server] )`
* **`$context` - context value as returned from `get_context`, `find_context` or one
of the fields in the list of hashrefs returned by `list_get`**
* **`$channel` - name of a channel you want to switch context to**
* **`$server` - name of a server you want to switch context to**
See `find_context` for more details on `$channel` and `$server`.
Returns true on success, false on failure.
### `Xchat::get_info( $id )`
* **`$id` - one of the following case sensitive values**
<table border="1"> <tr style="background-color: #dddddd">
<td>ID</td>
<td>Return value</td>
<td>Associated Command(s)</td>

Additionally when you have detached tabs, each of the windows will return a different win\_ptr for the different Gtk2::Window objects.<br />
See <a href="http://xchat.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xchat/xchat2/plugins/perl/char_count.pl?view=markup">char\_count.pl</a> for a longer example of a script that uses this to show how many characters you currently have in your input box.

This function is used to retrieve certain information about the current
context. If there is an associated command then that command can be used
to change the value for a particular ID.
### `Xchat::get_prefs( $name )`
* **`$name` - name of a HexChat setting (available through the /set command)**
This function provides a way to retrieve HexChat's setting information.
Returns `undef` if there is no setting called called `$name`.
### `Xchat::emit_print( $event, LIST )`
* **`$event` - name from the Event column in _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_**
* **`LIST` - this depends on the Description column on the bottom of _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_**
This functions is used to generate one of the events listed under _Settings_ `->` _Text Events_.
Note: when using this function you **must** return `Xchat::EAT_ALL` otherwise you will end up with duplicate events.
One is the original and the second is the one you emit.
Returns true on success, false on failure.
### `Xchat::send_modes( $target | \@targets, $sign, $mode, [ $modes_per_line ] )`
* **`$target` - a single nick to set the mode on**
* **`\@targets` - an array reference of the nicks to set the mode on**
* **`$sign` - the mode sign, either '+' or '-'**
* **`$mode` - the mode character such as 'o' and 'v', this can only be one character long**
* **`$modes_per_line` - an optional argument maximum number of modes to send per at once, pass 0 use the current server's maximum (default)**
Send multiple mode changes for the current channel. It may send multiple MODE lines if the request doesn't fit on one.
Example:
<pre>
use strict;
use warning;
use Xchat qw(:all);
hook_command( "MODES", sub {
my (undef, $who, $sign, $mode) = @{$_[0]};
my @targets = split /,/, $who;
if( @targets > 1 ) {
send_modes( \@targets, $sign, $mode, 1 );
} else {
send_modes( $who, $sign, $mode );
}
return EAT_XCHAT;
});
</pre>
### `Xchat::nickcmp( $nick1, $nick2 )`
* **`$nick1, $nick2` - the two nicks or channel names that are to be compared**
The comparsion is based on the current server. Either an [RFC1459](http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1459.txt)
compliant string compare or plain ascii will be using depending on the server. The
comparison is case insensitive.
Returns a number less than, equal to or greater than zero if `$nick1` is
found respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than `$nick2`.
### `Xchat::get_list( $name )`
* **`$name` - name of the list, one of the following: "channels", "dcc", "ignore", "notify", "users"**
This function will return a list of hash references. The hash references
will have different keys depend on the list. An empty list is returned
if there is no such list.
"channels" - list of channels, querys and their server

### `Xchat::user_info( [$nick] )`
* **`$nick` - the nick to look for, if this is not given your own nick will be used as default**
This function is mainly intended to be used as a shortcut for when you need
to retrieve some information about only one user in a channel. Otherwise it
is better to use `get_list`. If `$nick` is found a hash reference containing
the same keys as those in the "users" list of `get_list` is returned otherwise
undef is returned. Since it relies on `get_list` this function can only be used in a
channel context.
### `Xchat::context_info( [$context] )`
* **`$context` - context returned from `get_context`, `find_context` and `get_list`, this is the context that you want infomation about. If this is omitted, it will default to current context.**
This function will return the information normally retrieved with `get_info`, except this
is for the context that is passed in. The information will be returned in the form of a
hash. The keys of the hash are the `$id` you would normally supply to `get_info` as well
as all the keys that are valid for the items in the "channels" list from `get_list`. Use
of this function is more efficient than calling get_list( "channels" ) and
searching through the result.
Example:
<pre>
use strict;
use warnings;
use Xchat qw(:all); # imports all the functions documented on this page
register( "User Count", "0.1",
"Print out the number of users on the current channel" );
hook_command( "UCOUNT", \&display_count );
sub display_count {
prnt "There are " . context_info()->{users} . " users in this channel.";
return EAT_XCHAT;
}
</pre>
### `Xchat::strip_code( $string )`
* **`$string` - string to remove codes from**
This function will remove bold, color, beep, reset, reverse and underline codes from `$string`.
It will also remove ANSI escape codes which might get used by certain terminal based clients.
If it is called in void context `$string` will be modified otherwise a modified copy of `$string` is returned.
## Examples
### Asynchronous DNS resolution with hook\_fd
<pre>
use strict;
use warnings;
use Xchat qw(:all);
use Net::DNS;
hook_command( "BGDNS", sub {
my $host = $_[0][1];
my $resolver = Net::DNS::Resolver->new;
my $sock = $resolver->bgsend( $host );
hook_fd( $sock, sub {
my $ready_sock = $_[0];
my $packet = $resolver->bgread( $ready_sock );
if( $packet->authority && (my @answers = $packet->answer ) ) {
if( @answers ) {
prnt "$host:";
my $padding = " " x (length( $host ) + 2);
for my $answer ( @answers ) {
prnt $padding . $answer->rdatastr . ' ' . $answer->type;
}
}
} else {
prnt "Unable to resolve $host";
}
return REMOVE;
},
{
flags => FD_READ,
});
return EAT_XCHAT;
});
</pre>

# HexChat Python Interface
## Features
Here are some of the features of the python plugin interface:
* Comprehensive, consistent and straightforward API
* Load, unload, reload, and autoload support
* Per plugin independent interpreter state
* Python interactive console
* Python interactive command execution
* Full thread support
* Stdout and stderr redirected to HexChat console
* Dynamic list management
* Nice context treatment
* Plugin preferences
## Commands
The following commands will be intercepted by the Python Plugin interface module, when it is loaded.
* **/py load &lt;filename>:** Load module with given filename.
* **/py unload &lt;filename|module name>:** Unload module with given filename, or module name.
* **/py reload &lt;filename|module name>:** Reload module with given filename, or module name.
* **/py list:** List Python modules loaded.
* **/py exec &lt;command>:** Execute given Python command interactively. For example:
<pre>
/py exec import xchat
/py exec print xchat.get_info('channel')
</pre>
* **/py console:** Open the Python interactive console in a query (>>python<<).
Every message sent will be intercepted by the Python plugin interface,
and interpreted interactively. Notice that the console and /py exec
commands live in the same interpreter state.
* **/py about:** Show some information about the Python plugin interface.
## Autoloading modules
If you want some module to be autoloaded together with the Python plugin
interface (which usually loads at startup time), just make sure it has a
`.py` extension and put it in your HexChat directory (`~/.config/hexchat/addons`, `%APPDATA%\\HexChat\\addons`).
## Context theory
Before starting to explain what the API offers, I'll do a short
introduction about the HexChat context concept. Not because it's something
hard to understand, but because you'll understand better the API
explanations if you know what I'm talking about.
You can think about a context as an HexChat channel, server, or query tab.
Each of these tabs, has its own context, and is related to a given
server and channel (queries are a special kind of channel).
The *current* context is the one where HexChat passes control to the
module. For example, when HexChat receives a command in a specific
channel, and you have asked HexChat to tell you about this event, the
current context will be set to this channel before your module is
called.
## Hello world
Here is the traditional _hello world_ example.
<pre>
__module_name__ = "helloworld"
__module_version__ = "1.0"
__module_description__ = "Python module example"
print "Hello world!"
</pre>
This module will print "Hello world!" in the HexChat console, and sleep
forever until it's unloaded. It's a simple module, but already
introduces some concepts. Notice how the module information is set. This
information is obligatory, and will be shown when listing the loaded
HexChat modules.
## xchat module
The xchat module is your passport to every HexChat functionality offered
by the Python plugin interface. Here's a simple example:
<pre>
import xchat
xchat.prnt("Hi everyone!")
</pre>
The following functions are available in the xchat module.
### Generic functions
#### xchat.prnt(string)
This function will print string in the current context. It's mainly
useful as a parameter to pass to some other function, since the usual
print statement will have the same results. You have a usage example
above.
This function is badly named because `"print"` is a reserved keyword of the Python language.
#### xchat.emit\_print(event\_name, \*args)
This function will generate a *print event* with the given arguments. To
check which events are available, and the number and meaning of
arguments, have a look at the `Settings > Lists > Text Events` window.
Here is one example:
<pre>
xchat.emit_print("Channel Message", "John", "Hi there", "@")
</pre>
#### xchat.command(string)
Execute the given command in the current context. This has the same
results as executing a command in the HexChat window, but notice that the
`/` prefix is not used. Here is an example:
<pre>
xchat.command("server irc.openprojects.net")
</pre>
#### xchat.nickcmp(s1, s2)
This function will do an RFC1459 compliant string comparing between `s1`
and `s2`, and is useful to compare channels and nicknames. It returns an
integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if `s1` is found,
respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than `s2`. For
example:
<pre>
if xchat.nickcmp(nick, "mynick") == 0:
print "They are the same!"
</pre>
### Information retreiving functions
#### xchat.get\_info(type)
Retrieve the information specified by the `type` string in the current
context. At the moment of this writing, the following information types
are available to be queried:
* **away:** Away reason or None if you are not away.
* **channel:** Channel name of the current context.
* **charset:** Charset in current context.
* **configdir:** HexChat config directory e.g.: "~/.config/hexchat".
* **event_name NAME:** Returns text event string for requested event.
* **gtkwin_ptr:** Current Gtk Window.
* **host:** Real hostname of the server you connected to.
* **inputbox:** Contents of inputbox.
* **network:** Current network name or None.
* **nick:** Your current nick name.
* **nickserv:** Current networks nickserv password or None.
* **modes:** Current channel modes or None.
* **server:** Current server name (what the server claims to be) or None if you are not connected.
* **topic:** Current channel topic.
* **win_status:** Returns status of window: 'active', 'hidden', or 'normal'.
* **version:** HexChat version number.
Example:
<pre>
if xchat.get_info("server") is None:
print "Not connected!"
</pre>
#### xchat.get\_prefs(name)
Retrieve the HexChat setting information specified by the `name` string,
as available by the `/set` command. For example:
<pre>
print "Current preferred nick:", xchat.get_prefs("irc_nick1")
</pre>
#### xchat.get\_list(type)
With this function you may retrieve a list containing the selected
information from the current context, like a DCC list, a channel list, a
user list, etc. Each list item will have its attributes set dynamically
depending on the information provided by the list type.
The example below is a rewrite of the example provided with HexChat's
plugin API documentation. It prints a list of every DCC transfer
happening at the moment. Notice how similar the interface is to the C
API provided by HexChat.
<pre>
list = xchat.get_list("dcc")
if list:
print "--- DCC LIST ------------------"
print "File To/From KB/s Position"
for i in list:
print "%6s %10s %.2f %d" % (i.file, i.nick, i.cps/1024, i.pos)
</pre>
Below you will find what each list type has to offer.
This information was taken from HexChat's plugin documentation. You may find any types not
listed here, if they exist at all, in an updated HexChat documentation.
Any list types accepted by HexChat should be dynamically accepted by the
Python plugin interface.
##### channels
The channels list type gives you access to the channels, queries and
their servers. The folloing attributes are available in each list item:
* **channel:** Channel or query name.
* **chantypes:** Channel types e.g. #!&.

channel. The following attributes are available in each list item:
* **away:** Away status.
* **lasttalk:** Last time the user was seen talking.
* **host:** Host name in the form user@host (or None, if not known).
* **nick:** Nick name.
* **prefix:** Prefix character, .e.g: @ or +. Points to a single char.

* 1: notice
* 2: channel
* 3: ctcp
* 4: invite
* 5: unignore

### Hook functions
These functions allow one to hook into HexChat events.
#### Priorities
When a priority keyword parameter is accepted, it means that this
callback may be hooked with five different priorities: PRI\_HIGHEST,
PRI\_HIGH, PRI\_NORM, PRI\_LOW, and PRI\_LOWEST. The usage of these
constants, which are available in the xchat module, will define the
order in which your plugin will be called. Most of the time, you won't
want to change its default value (PRI\_NORM).
#### Parameters word and word_eol
These parameters, when available in a callback, are lists of strings
which contain the parameters the user entered for the particular
command. For example, if you executed:
<pre>
/command NICK Hi there!
</pre>
* **word[0]** is `command`
* **word[1]** is `NICK`
* **word[2]** is `Hi`
* **word[3]** is `there!`
* **word\_eol[0]** is `command NICK Hi there!`
* **word\_eol[1]** is `NICK Hi there!`
* **word\_eol[2]** is `Hi there!`
* **word\_eol[3]** is `there!`
#### Parameter userdata
The parameter userdata, if given, allows you to pass a custom object to
your callback.
#### Callback return constants (EAT\_*)
When a callback is supposed to return one of the EAT\_\* macros, it is
able control how HexChat will proceed after the callback returns. These
are the available constants, and their meanings:
* **EAT_PLUGIN:** Don't let any other plugin receive this event.
* **EAT_XCHAT:** Don't let HexChat treat this event as usual.
* **EAT_ALL:** Eat the event completely.
* **EAT_NONE:** Let everything happen as usual.
Returning `None` is the same as returning `EAT_NONE`.
#### xchat.hook\_command(name, callback, userdata=None, priority=PRI\_NORM, help=None)
This function allows you to hook into the name HexChat command. It means
that everytime you type `/name ...`, `callback` will be called.
Parameters `userdata` and `priority` have their meanings explained
above, and the parameter help, if given, allows you to pass a help text
which will be shown when `/help name` is executed. This function returns
a hook handler which may be used in the `xchat.unhook()` function. For
example:
<pre>
def onotice_cb(word, word_eol, userdata):
if len(word) < 2:
print "Second arg must be the message!"
else:
xchat.command("NOTICE @%s %s" % (xchat.get_info("channel"), word_eol[1]))
return xchat.EAT_ALL
xchat.hook_command("ONOTICE", onotice_cb, help="/ONOTICE <message> Sends a notice to all ops")
</pre>
You may return one of `EAT_*` constants in the callback, to control
HexChat's behavior, as explained above.
#### xchat.hook\_print(name, callback, userdata=None, priority=PRI\_NORM)
This function allows you to register a callback to trap any print
events. The event names are available in the _Edit Event Texts_ window.
Parameters `userdata` and `priority` have their meanings explained
above. This function returns a hook handler which may be used in the
`xchat.unhook()` function. For example:
<pre>
def youpart_cb(word, word_eol, userdata):
print "You have left channel", word[2]
return xchat.EAT_XCHAT # Don't let HexChat do its normal printing
xchat.hook_print("You Part", youpart_cb)
</pre>
You may return one of `EAT_*` constants in the callback, to control
HexChat's behavior, as explained above.
#### xchat.hook\_server(name, callback, userdata=None, priority=PRI\_NORM)
This function allows you to register a callback to be called when a
certain server event occurs. You can use this to trap `PRIVMSG`,
`NOTICE`, `PART`, a server numeric, etc. Parameters `userdata` and
`priority` have their meanings explained above. This function returns a
hook handler which may be used in the `xchat.unhook()` function. For
example:
<pre>
def kick_cb(word, word_eol, userdata):
print "%s was kicked from %s (%s)" % (word[3], word[2], word_eol[4])
# Don't eat this event, let other plugins and HexChat see it too
return xchat.EAT_NONE
xchat.hook_server("KICK", kick_cb)
</pre>
You may return one of `EAT_*` constants in the callback, to control
HexChat's behavior, as explained above.
#### xchat.hook\_timer(timeout, callback, userdata=None)
This function allows you to register a callback to be called every
timeout milliseconds. Parameters userdata and priority have their
meanings explained above. This function returns a hook handler which may
be used in the `xchat.unhook()` function. For example:
<pre>
myhook = None
def stop_cb(word, word_eol, userdata):
global myhook
if myhook is not None:
xchat.unhook(myhook)
myhook = None
print "Timeout removed!"
def timeout_cb(userdata):
print "Annoying message every 5 seconds! Type /STOP to stop it."
return 1 # Keep the timeout going
myhook = xchat.hook_timer(5000, timeout_cb)
xchat.hook_command("STOP", stop_cb)
</pre>
If you return a true value from the callback, the timer will be keeped,
otherwise it is removed.
#### xchat.hook\_unload(timeout, callback, userdata=None)
This function allows you to register a callback to be called when the
plugin is going to be unloaded. Parameters `userdata` and `priority`
have their meanings explained above. This function returns a hook
handler which may be used in the `xchat.unhook()` function. For example:
<pre>
def unload_cb(userdata):
print "We're being unloaded!"
xchat.hook_unload(unload_cb)
</pre>
#### xchat.unhook(handler)
Unhooks any hook registered with the hook functions above.
### Plugin preferences
You can use pluginpref to easily store and retrieve settings. This was added in the Python plugin version 0.9
#### xchat.set\_pluginpref(name, value)
If neccessary creates a .conf file in the HexChat config folder named addon\_python.conf and stores the value in it. Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure.
> Note: Until the plugin uses different a conf file per script it's recommened to use 'PluginName-SettingName' to avoid conflicts.
#### xchat.get\_pluginpref(name)
This will return the value of the variable of that name. If there is none by this name it will return `None`. Numbers are always returned as Integers.
#### xchat.del\_pluginpref(name)
Deletes the specified variable. Returns 1 on success (or never existing), 0 on failure.
#### xchat.list\_pluginpref()
Returns a list of all currently set preferences.
### Context handling
Below you will find information about how to work with contexts.
#### Context objects
As explained in the Context theory session above, contexts give access
to a specific channel/query/server tab of HexChat. Every function
available in the xchat module will be evaluated in the current context,
which will be specified by HexChat itself before passing control to the
module. Sometimes you may want to work in a specific context, and that's
where context objects come into play.
You may create a context object using the `xchat.get_context()` or
`xchat.find_context()`, functions as explained below, or trough the
`xchat.get_list()` function, as explained in its respective session.
Each context object offers the following methods:
* **context.set():** Changes the current context to be the one represented by this context object.
* **context.prnt(string):** Does the same as the xchat.prnt() function, but in the given context.
* **context.emit\_print(event\_name, \*args):** Does the same as the emit\_print() function, but in the given context.
* **context.command(string):** Does the same as the xchat.command() function, but in the given context.
* **context.get\_info(type):** Does the same as the xchat.get\_info() function, but in the given context.
* **context.get\_list(type):** Does the same as the xchat.get\_list() function, but in the given context.
#### xchat.get\_context()
Returns a context object corresponding the the current context.
#### xchat.find\_context(server=None, channel=None)

cnc = xchat.find_context(channel='#conectiva')
cnc.command('whois niemeyer')
</pre>
