kube-weechat

current release: 0.9

kube-weechat is a personal IRC client setup for Kubernetes! It runs:

• weechat (IRC client)
• Glowing Bear (web frontend to weechat)
• ngircd (IRC server - for local testing & hopefully personal chatbots in the future)

and has great features like:

• SSL for all publicly exposed services
• automatic logs backup to S3

Requirements:

• nginx-ingress-controller (https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress)
• kube-lego (https://github.com/jetstack/kube-lego)
• AWS IAM creds for an S3 bucket

Setup:

1. Clone the repo: git clone git@github.com:sophaskins/kube-weechat.git
2. Fill in the config with correct information for you: vim kube-weechat/kubeconfigs/01-configs.yaml Make sure that you (at least) change:
   • default nicknames (under server_default)
   • relay password (under relay.conf)
   • AWS secrets (under aws-secrets) if you want log backups
3. Configure ingresses with the right domain names for your setup: vim kube-weechat/kubeconfigs/99-ingress.yaml
4. Apply the configs: kubectl apply -f kube-weechat/kubeconfigs

Usage:

If everything starts up correctly, you should be able load Glowing Bear at the URL defined in the Ingress configs: https://glowing-bear.example.net The "weechat relay hostname" should be the domain defined for weechat in the Ingress configs: weechat.example.net. The port to use is 443, you should make sure to check the "Encryption" box. Finally, use the password you set up in step 2 above.
