This is just a compilation of modules and addons for hexchat, using its Python plugin.

Unless further noted, all scripts are tested to work on

• Windows 7 with Hexchat 2.12.2 or higher, Python 3.5
• Arch Linux with Hexchat 2.16.0, Python 3.10, Lua 5.4

Lua scripts require the Lua plugin engine to be installed (available since Hexchat 2.12).

1. Click the link to opening the source file on Github

2. Right-clicking the "Raw" button on the right side

3. Select "Save Link as...".

4. Download the file to your Hexchat's addons folder, where they will automatically be loaded from on startup.

   Examples: 'C:\\Users\\Fichte\\AppData\\Roaming\\HexChat\\addons' /home/fichte/.config/hexchat/addons

The following Hexchat command will print the path to your addons folder:

/py exec import os; print(os.path.join(hexchat.get_info("configdir"), "addons"))

Scripts that use one or more other modules require those to be downloaded as well. Download every file in the module's directory, like you would download a script, and place them into the appropriate directory in your addons folder.

Make sure that the directory structure is preserved and create directories when necessary.

Some of my scripts share utility functions that I branched into their own modules for better code re-use.

Abstractions for hexchat's hexchat.*_pluginpref API, wrapped in a MutableMapping, so the interface is essentially a dict.

All settings are prefixed with the plugin name internally to prevent collisions. Supports being wrapped with a JSON serializer, thus allowing to store lists and dictionaries too, and can optionally version a settings schema for you.

For details, refer to docstring or tests (in same directory).

Collection of utility functions.

Refer to the source code and docstrings for details.

Short for "Anti Massive Highlight". Blocks messages that contain a lot of nicknames of the current channel.

Strips the channel name for channel mode messages and your nick name for user mode messages.

Requires /set irc_raw_modes 1.

Used modules: util

Expands a preceding # character to the current channel when you press space or tab after it. Hold shift key to insert literal space.

Translates messages relayed through a discord bot into native IRC messages. Targets https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc. Configure channels and bot nicknames with the BOT_MAP mapping (in code).

Mutes spammy +o, -o as well as join and part messages if there are more than a certain number of users in a channel.

Used modules: util

Executes a hexchat command subject to mpv's property expansion by using its IPC protocol. This can be used to announce the currently loaded file. Requires setting input-ipc-server in mpv's config file (refer to /help mpv).

Requires mpv 0.25.0 or higher.

[00:32:07] * FichteFoll is playing: NOMA - Brain Power [00:01:04 / 00:06:08]

Based on smartparts.py.

Mutes a variety of events for users that never talk, or haven't talked in a certain period (60 minutes by default).

• Muted events are: joins, parts, renames and mode changes.
• If a recently joined user starts talking, his 'Join' event is late-emitted with the original timestamp.
• Handles renames.
• If a user that previously talked parts and joins again (or renames), the events are shown.
• Events for nicks in your notify list are always shown.
• Mode changes that affect the channel are always shown.

Works with ZNC bouncers and also with *buffextras module using buffextras.py.

Improved Lua port of the Perl script. Adds the /viewlog command, which opens the log file of the currently active context.

A default program for the log file must be configured in the source code. See the comments there for details.

On UNIX, requires lua-lgi to be installed.

Print (or announce) a YouTube video's title.

Requires a Google API key! See below on how to obtain one](#how-to-obtain-a-google-api-key). Set it using /ytt key set <key>.

By default, it will only print the title for you locally.

• /ytt get prints titles of the videos specified
• /ytt announce manages a list of channels where the title should be announced (i.e. /say)
• /ytt mute manages a list of channels where YouTube urls should be ignored
• /ytt key manages the stored key

Used modules: pluginpref, util

Requires the requests Python package to be installed.
