go-discord-irc
Is this being maintained? Sort of. I'm here. I'll read your issues & accept pull requests. But eventually I want to merge all this functionality into the much superior matterbridge by 42wim.
This is an IRC to Discord bridge built just for @compsoc-edinburgh and ImaginaryNet.
- The
IRC -> Discord
side of things work as you would expect it to: messages on IRC send to Discord as the bot user, as per usual. - The
Discord -> IRC
side of things is a little different. On connect, this bot will join the server with the~d
, and spawn additional connections for each online person in the Discord. - Supports bidirectional PMs
Gotchas
Things to keep in mind in terms of functionality:
- This does not work with private Discord channels properly (all discord users are added to the channel)
- DO NOT USE THE SAME DISCORD BOT (API KEY) ACROSS MULTIPLE GUILDS (SERVERS). SUPPORT FOR THIS WILL COME SOME DAY. YOU RISK PMs BEING LEAKED
It's built with configuration in mind, but may need a little bit of tweaking for it to work for you:
- Hardcoded: Hostnames are hardcoded to follow the IPv6 IPs listed here.
- Server mod: Discord usernames will have
~d
tacked on at the end. This usually invalid nickname character required custom modifications to the IRC server code. This is configurable. - Server config: This uses
WEBIRC
to give Discord users on IRC a distinct hostname. See here.
Configuration
The binary takes three flags:
--config filename.yaml
: to pass along a configuration file containing things like passwords and channel options--simple
: to only spawn one connection (the listener will send across messages from Discord) instead of a connection per online Discord user--debug
: provide this flag to print extra debug info. Setting this flag to false (or not providing this flag) will take the value from the config file instead--insecure
: used to skip TLS verification (false = use value from settings)
The config file is a yaml formatted file with the following fields:
discord_token
, the bot user tokenirc_server
, IRC server addressirc_pass
, optional password for connecting to the IRC serverchannel_mappings
, a dict with irc channel as key (prefixed with#
) and Discord channel ID as valuesuffix
, appended to each Discord user's nickname when they are connected to IRCirc_listener_name
, the name of the irc listenerguild_id
, the Discord guild (server) idwebirc_pass
, optional, but recommended for regular (non-simple) usage. this must be obtained by the IRC sysopsdebug
, debug modeinsecure
, insecure modewebhook_prefix
, a prefix for webhooks, so we know which ones to keep and which ones to deletewebhook_limit
, integer limit for the maximum number of webhooks to createnickserv_identify
, optional, on connect this message will be sent:PRIVMSG nickserv IDENTIFY <value>
, you can provide both a username and password if your ircd supports it
The filename.yaml file is continuously read from and many changes will automatically update on the bridge. This means you can add or remove channels without restarting the bot.
An example configuration file (those marked as requires restart
definitely require restart, but others may not currently be configured to automatically update):
discord_token: abc.def.ghi
irc_server: localhost:6697
guild_id: 315277951597936640
nickserv_identify: password123
channel_mappings:
"#bottest chanKey": 316038111811600387
"#bottest2": 318327329044561920
suffix: "_d2"
irc_listener_name: "_d2"
webirc_pass: abcdef.ghijk.lmnop
insecure: true # this requires restart
debug: false
webhook_prefix: "(auto-test)" # this probably requires restart
webhook_limit: 3
#simple: true # this requires restart
This bot needs permissions to manage webhooks as it creates webhooks on the go.

Docker
First edit config.yml
file to your needs.
Then launch docker build -t go-discord-irc .
in the repository root folder.
And then docker run -d go-discord-irc
to run the bot in background.
