My attempt at a Twitch IRC library for the Rust programming language, using the recently stabilized async rust traits/language features.
Example usage (This is the simple_listener
example, see examples/simple_listener.rs
and run it with cargo run --example simple_listener
):
```rust use twitchirc::login::StaticLoginCredentials; use twitchirc::TwitchIRCClient; use twitch_irc::{ClientConfig, SecureTCPTransport};
pub async fn main() {
// default configuration is to join chat as anonymous.
let config = ClientConfig::default();
let (mut incoming_messages, client) =
TwitchIRCClient::
// first thing you should do: start consuming incoming messages,
// otherwise they will back up.
let join_handle = tokio::spawn(async move {
while let Some(message) = incoming_messages.recv().await {
println!("Received message: {:?}", message);
}
});
// join a channel
// This function only returns an error if the passed channel login name is malformed,
// so in this simple case where the channel name is hardcoded we can ignore the potential
// error with `unwrap`.
client.join("sodapoppin".to_owned()).unwrap();
// keep the tokio executor alive.
// If you return instead of waiting the background task will exit.
join_handle.await.unwrap();
} ```
