Name        : unrealircd
Product     : Fedora 37
Version     : 6.0.6
Release     : 1.fc37
URL         : https://www.unrealircd.org/
Summary     : Open Source IRC server
Description :
UnrealIRCd is an Open Source IRC server based on the branch of IRCu called
Dreamforge, formerly used by the DALnet IRC network. Since the beginning of
development on UnrealIRCd in May of 1999, it has become a highly advanced
IRCd with a strong focus on modularity, an advanced and highly configurable
configuration file. Key features include SSL/TLS, cloaking, advanced anti-
flood and anti-spam systems, swear filtering and module support.

Update Information:

# UnrealIRCd 6.0.6  The main objective of this release is to enhance the new
JSON-RPC functionality.  ## Enhancements   * The [JSON-
RPC](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/JSON-RPC) API for UnrealIRCd has been
expanded a lot. From 12 API methods to 42: `stats.get`, `rpc.info`, `user.part`,
`user.join`, `user.quit`, `user.kill`, `user.set_oper`, `user.set_snomask`,
`user.set_mode`, `user.set_vhost`, `user.set_realname`, `user.set_username`,
`user.set_nick`, `user.get`, `user.list`, `server.module_list`,
`server.disconnect`, `server.connect`, `server.rehash`, `server.get`,
`server.list`, `channel.kick`, `channel.set_topic`, `channel.set_mode`,
`channel.get`, `channel.list`, `server_ban.add`, `server_ban.del`,
`server_ban.get`, `server_ban.list`, `server_ban_exception.add`,
`server_ban_exception.del`, `server_ban_exception.get`,
`server_ban_exception.list`, `name_ban.add`, `name_ban.del`, `name_ban.get`,
`name_ban.list`, `spamfilter.add`, `spamfilter.del`, `spamfilter.get`,
`spamfilter.list`.     * Server admins can read the [JSON-
RPC](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/JSON-RPC) documentation on how to get
started. For developers, see the [Technical
documentation](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/JSON-RPC:Technical_documentation)
for all info on the different RPC calls and the protocol.     * Some
functionality requires all servers to be on 6.0.6 or later.     * Some
functionality requires all servers to include `rpc.modules.default.conf` instead
of only the single server that the webpanel interfaces with through JSON-RPC.
When all servers have that file included then the API call `server.module_list`
can work for remote servers, and the API call `server.rehash` for remote servers
can return the actual rehash result and a full log of the rehash process. It is
not used for any other API call at the moment, but in the future more API calls
may need this functionality because it allows upstream to do things that are
otherwise impossible or very hard.     * Known issue: logging of RPC actions
needs to be improved. For some API calls, like adding of server bans and
spamfilters, this already works, but in other API calls it is not clearly logged
yet "who did what".  ## Changes   * Previously some server protocol commands
could only be used by services, commands such as `SVSJOIN` and `SVSPART`.
Upstream now allows SVS* command to be used by any servers, so the JSON-RPC API
can use them. There's a new option [set::limit-
svscmds](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Set_block#set::limit-svscmds) so one
can revert back to the original situation, if needed.   * All JSON-RPC calls
that don't change anything, such as `user.list` are now logged in the
`rpc.debug` facility. Any call that changes anything like `user.join` or
`spamfilter.add` is logged via `rpc.info`. This because JSON-RPC calls can be
quite noisy and logging the read-only calls is generally not so interesting.  ##
Fixes   * When using JSON-RPC with UnrealIRCd 6.0.5 it would often crash   * Fix
parsing services version (anope) in `EAUTH`.  ## Developers and protocol   * A
new `RRPC` server to server command to handle RPC-over-IRC. This way the JSON-
RPC user, like the admin panel, can interface with a remote server. If you are
writing an RPC handler, then the remote RPC request does not look much different
than a local one, so you can just process it as usual. See the code for
`server.rehash` or `server.module_list` for an example
(`src/modules/rpc/server.c`).
