        luk3yx's "lightweight™" IRC and Discord bot (excluding commands).
        
        ## Official bot
        
        If you can't or don't want to run your own bot, you can request that the
        official bot be added to your channel. The official bot is on a few IRC
        networks, most notably Libera Chat and xeroxIRC. PM `luk3yx` there if you want
        the bot on an IRC channel you own. *Note that this IRC bot is running
        [Sopel](https://github.com/sopel-irc/sopel) and not lurklite, hopefully I'll
        release the API shim it uses sometime.*
        
        Alternatively, if you use Discord, you can use [https://bit.ly/lurkdiscord] to
        add lurklite (without any permissions) to your Discord guild/server.
        
        [https://bit.ly/lurkdiscord]: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?&client_id=525031486047387648&scope=bot&permissions=0
        
        ## Installation
        
        To install lurklite, you can simply install it with `pip`
        (`sudo pip3 install lurklite` on most GNU/Linux distributions). After
        installation, you should be able to run `lurklite` (or `python3 -m lurklite`).
        
        ## Config file
        
        The lurklite config file has a format similar to `ini` files. It must have a
        `[core]` section with the following values:
        
        ```ini
        [core]
        # The tempcmd db, commands added with .tempcmd are stored here.
        # If you have msgpack installed, this database will be slightly smaller and
        #   faster to read/write to/from.
        command_db = /path/to/tempcmd/database
        
        # The bot's command prefix.
        prefix     = .
        
        # (Optional) A list of hostmasks to ignore.
        # ignored  = *!*@*/bot/*, baduser!*@*
        
        # (Optional) Disable "Yay!" and "Ouch." replies.
        # disable_yay  = false
        # disable_ouch = false
        ```
        
        ### Connecting to IRC servers
        
        You can then create sections starting with `irc.` (for example `irc.mynetwork`)
        to connect to IRC servers:
        
        ```ini
        [irc.mynetwork]
        ip   = irc.example.com
        port = 6697
        nick = testbot
        channels = #botwar,#other-channel
        
        # List of hostmasks to ignore (optional)
        # ignored = *!*@*/bot/*, *!*sopel*@*
        
        # List of hostnames for admins
        # admins = unaffiliated/user
        ```
        
        The following optional values may be added to the above config, and are sent
        directly to [miniirc]:
        
        ```ini
        connect_modes = +g
        ident         = ident
        ns_identity   = username password
        quit_message  = Quit message
        realname      = realname
        ssl           = true
        ```
        
        ### Connecting to Matrix servers
        
        You can connect to Matrix (using [miniirc_matrix]) with this config section:
        
        ```ini
        [matrix]
        homeserver = example.com
        token = your-matrix-token
        admins = @yourusername:example.com
        ```
        
        Obtaining a token is currently not very straightforward. You can use the
        following Python code. Note that if you execute this in an interactive Python
        shell it will likely save both the username and password in its history file.
        
        ```py
        import miniirc_matrix
        print(miniirc_matrix.login('example.com', 'botusername', 'password'))
        ```
        
        The bot will automatically accept invites from admins.
        
        ### Connecting to Discord servers
        
        You can also connect to Discord servers (via [miniirc_discord]) with the
        following config section:
        
        ```ini
        [discord]
        # You need miniirc_discord installed for this to work.
        token    = your-discord-token
        
        # Using user IDs instead of username#discriminator improves security.
        # admins = username#1234, userid
        ```
        
        You can only have one Discord connection per bot process, and lurklite will use
        slightly more RAM if `[discord]` exists, as [miniirc_discord] will be imported
        (and if you don't specify a Discord bot token, [miniirc_discord] won't be
        imported).
        
        ### Storing the command database in an ASCII-safe format.
        
        If you have the habit of opening and modifying `commands.db` in a text editor,
        it might be a good idea to store it with JSON by adding the following to your
        configuration file:
        
        ```ini
        [tempcmds]
        db_format = json
        ```
        
        *Note that this will very slightly degrade performance and increase the size,
        however this should be a negligible amount for most purposes.*
        
        ## Creating commands
        
        Once your bot has connected to IRC (or Discord), you can use `tempcmd` to
        create (permanent) commands. You can either do
        `.tempcmd <command> <type> <code>` to add a tempcmd with a set type, or
        `.tempcmd <command> <code>` to auto-detect the type (as long as the first word
        in `<code>` is not a valid type).
        
        *For now, tempcmds.py has a list of code types/formats and what they do.*
        
        To delete commands, you can use `tempcmd del/delete/remove <command>`. To create
        a command called `del`, `delete` or `remove`, you can prepend your bot's prefix
        to the command name.
        
        ### Creating non-"tempcmd" commands
        
        If you want more fine-grained control over a command, you can add a
        `custom_cmds` line to the `[core]` section of config.ini. The file specified
        will be loaded and can define more powerful commands, for example:
        
        ```py
        # A simple version command
        # The "requires_admin" parameter is optional and defaults to False.
        @register_command('version', requires_admin=False)
        def version_command(irc, hostmask, is_admin, args):
            # irc: The miniirc.IRC (or miniirc_discord.Discord) object.
            # hostmask: The hostmask tuple, mostly from miniirc. Note that relayed
            #   messages (for example "<relayed_user> test") will have a hostmask
            #   similar to ('relayed_user@relay_bot', 'relay_bot_ident',
            #       'relay.bot.host/relayed/relayed_user').
            # is_admin: Either `False` or a string with the admin match (for example
            #   a hostmask or Discord tag.
            # args: ["#channel", "command parameters"]
            #   For PMs, "#channel" will be the sender (hostmask[0]).
        
            irc.msg(args[0], miniirc.version)
        ```
        
        *You do not have to import anything to get `register_command`.*
        
        If `custom_cmds` is a directory, all `.py` files in that directory will be
        loaded. If you want your custom commands file/directory in lurklite's source
        directory, you can name it `custom_cmds.py` (or, for directories, `custom_cmds`
        or `commands`) to make `git` ignore it.
        
        ## Built-in commands
        
        lurklite has the following built-in commands:
        
         - `reboot`: Reboot the bot.
         - `tempcmd`: Create and delete commands.
         - `version`: Display the miniirc version and quit.
        
        ## Migrating from very old versions of lurklite
        
        Older versions of lurklite (pre-v0.1.0) had a `tempcmds.db` created using
        `repr()`. This is slow(-ish) and inefficient, so is no longer supported. If you
        still have a pre-v0.1.0 `tempcmds.db`, you can run
        `tempcmds_migrate.py` to update it to the new msgpack/JSON format.
