inspircd #0

Supports: trusty
Add to new model

Description

This charm provides a templated IRC server using inspircd, for use in a small or corporate environment. Support for clustering is not provided. .

Overview

InspIRCd (www.inspircd.org) is an IRC server that integrates well with LDAP authentication. This charm will install and configure the inspircd package. A working knowledge of inspircd is assumed.

See http://www.inspircd.org and https://wiki.inspircd.org/Configuration for more details on the various options.

Installation

To deploy this charm you will need at a minimum: a cloud environment, working Juju installation and a successful bootstrap. Once bootstrapped, deploy the inspircd charm:

juju deploy inspircd

You will likely need an SSL key and certificate, which can be delivered to the charm thusly:

juju set ca_certificate="$(base64 -w0 < /path/to/ca-cert.pem)" \
     ssl_key="$(base64 -w0 < /path/to/key.pem)" \
     ssl_certificate="$(base64 -w0 < /path/to/certificate.pem)" \

for evaluation, you can do this instead, to disable ssl usage:

juju set inspircd ssl_ports=''

Finally, expose the service:

juju expose inspircd
