Welcome to the NewsBotIRC wiki!

NewsBotIRC is a IRC bot written in Java that reads RSS feeds entries from the Web and publishes them into a IRC channel.

Getting Started

You can build a Docker image that contains the bot, and then use it to create a container to run the bot. The procedure of running the bot in a Docker container is here.

Otherwise, you can build the bot's jar file and run it with java -jar NewsBotIRC-version.jar. Make sure to edit its configuration file located at src/main/resources/newsbot.properties first. When finished, just copy it to the jar's working directory and then start the bot.
