CamperVan, a Campfire to IRC bridge

Features

CamperVan, as far as your IRC client is concerned, is just another ircd.

Campfire rooms and users are mapped as IRC channels and nicks. Campfire messages, even custom ones such as tweets and sounds, are translated for an IRC client to understand.

Mappings

Wherever possible, Campfire messages and IRC commands are translated bidirectionally. Some of the mappings are:

IRC                         Campfire
---                         --------
#day_job                    "Day Job" room
joe_bob (nick)              Joe Bob (user)
@admin_user (nick)          An admin user
"joe_bob: hello" (message)  "Joe Bob: hello" (message)
https://tweet_url           Tweet message
/me waves                   *waves*

/LIST                       List rooms
/JOIN #day_job              Join the "Day Job" room
/PART #day_job              Leave the "Day Job" room
/WHO #day_job               List users in "Day Job"

/MODE +i #day_job           Lock room
/MODE -i #day_job           Unlock room

/TOPIC #day_job new topic   Change room's topic to "new topic"

Usage

Installation

gem install camper_van
camper_van --help

Running CamperVan

camper_van

Then, from your IRC client, set up a connection to localhost:6667. To authenticate with Campfire, you must configure your connection's password (the IRC PASS command) to be

campfire_subdomain:api_key

Connect, and /LIST will show you the irc channels / campfire rooms you have access to. To connect to more than one subdomain, make a separate connection for each.
