guppy is a modular IRC bot. We would like to provide an easy to use alternative to other currently available IRC bots. The API makes new modules easier to add.. The project is in beta.
Features
[admin] Keep a list of bot users and passwords. Bot administrators can send raw commands to server and add other administrators.
[fact] Keep a list of factoids. Everyone can change them. The dictionary is located at ~/.gpy/dict .
[calc] Perform basic calculations on a Reverse Polish Notation Input. Should be enough for most operations needed. The implementation is pretty straightforward and secure; eval() isn't used.
[--makeconf] Keep a configuration file at ~/.guppy/main.cfg . It's created basing on your answers on first run, and you can run gpy-start with the --makeconf switch to edit the current configuration.
Logs. Keep a log of queries to the bot and any errors encountered.
The modules make use of __doc__ feature and class inheritance - you just need to write the functions and their documentation, but don't need to write anything for the bot to send the documentation when the help is requested. You can just read a few existing modules and make your own similarly.
