ft_irc

42 Project to create an IRC server in C++98 fully compatible with an official client.

About:

Mandatory part:

• Communication between client and server has to be done via TCP/IP (v4 or v6).
• You must be able to authenticate, set a nickname, a username, join a channel, send and receive private messages using your reference client.
• All the messages sent from one client to a channel have to be forwarded to every other client that joined the channel.
• You must have operators and regular users.
• Then, you have to implement the commands that are specific to channel operators:
  • KICK - Eject a client from the channel
  • INVITE - Invite a client to a channel
  • TOPIC - Change or view the channel topic
  • MODE - Change the channel’s mode:
    • i: Set/remove Invite-only channel
    • t: Set/remove the restrictions of the TOPIC command to channel operators
    • k: Set/remove the channel key (password)
    • o: Give/take channel operator privilege
    • l: Set/remove the user limit to channel
