# ircparser
An IRC (RFC1459) parser and formatter, built in Rust.
`ircparser` should work on basically any Rust version, but the earliest version checked in the CI is v1.31 (the first version with Rust 2018 support).
## Setup
To use the latest stable version of `ircparser`, add it to your Cargo.toml file like so:
```toml
[dependencies]
ircparser = "^0.2.1"
```
You can also use the latest development version by specifying the following:
```toml
[dependencies]
ircparser = { git = "https://github.com/parafoxia/ircparser" }
```
## Usage
`ircparser` currently only has one public function — `parse`.
This function takes a line of an IRC message, and parses it into an easy-to-use `Line` object.
```rs
use ircparser;
fn main() {
let msg = "@id=123;name=rick :nick!user@host.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #rickastley :Never gonna give you up!";
match ircparser::parse(msg) {
Ok(x) => {
let line = x;
assert_eq!(&line.tags["id"], "123");
if line.source.is_some() {
assert_eq!(line.source.unwrap(), ":nick!user@host.tmi.twitch.tv");
}
assert_eq!(line.command, "PRIVMSG");
assert_eq!(line.params[0], "#rickastley");
assert_eq!(line.params[1], "Never gonna give you up!");
}
Err(e) => {
println!("A parsing error occured: {e}");
return;
}
};
}
```
