NAME

chathistorysync - a synchronization tool for IRC chat history

SYNOPSIS

chathistorysync [options...] <remote> <dir>

DESCRIPTION

Synchronize a local chat log directory with a remote IRC server.

The chat log directory is formatted with the znc syntax. The server needs to support the draft/chathistory IRCv3 extension. If the server also supports the soju.im/bouncer-networks extension, logs are fetched from the bouncer for each configured network.

If chathistorysync has previously fetched logs to dir, running it again will incrementally fetch new logs.

Example:

chathistorysync [email protected] ˜/chat-logs

OPTIONS

-h, -help

Show help message and quit.

-after <YYYY-MM-DD>

Only fetch logs after the specified date.

-debug

Enable debug logs.
