POE::Filter::IRC -- A POE-based parser for the IRC protocol.
my $filter = POE::Filter::IRC->new();
my @events = @{ $filter->get( [ @lines ] ) };
POE::Filter::IRC takes lines of raw IRC input and turns them into weird little data structures, suitable for feeding to POE::Component::IRC. They look like this:
{ name => 'event name', args => [ some info about the event ] }
This module was long deprecated in POE::Component::IRC. It now uses the same mechanism that that uses to parse IRC text.
new
Returns a new POE::Filter::Stackable object containing a POE::Filter::IRCD object and a POE::Filter::IRC::Compat object. This does the same job that POE::Filter::IRC used to do.
See the documentation for POE::Filter::IRCD and POE::Filter::IRC::Compat.
