37 I'm the admin for a tiny RolePlayGaming network and we're currently looking
38 into making addon modules for a series of Services Bots that will share the
39 load for a Roleplay Service on IRC.
41 The problem is that none of us are really coders, and we need a lot of help
42 getting started. With enormous respect for Andy and his great works on
43 producing his wonderful services, his documentation re: modules creation
44 leaves much to be desired, and seems to concentrate more on where and how we
45 should indent, then on how to compile a new module, and integrate it into
48 Simple questions to which we should be able find answers baffle us I'm
49 afraid, one such is: Do we add tokens for new commands to the exsiting token
50 list in init.c, or is there a way to introduce them within the modules
51 without editing existing code?
53 How do we include a module to the list of modules to be compiled, ie: is
54 there a command line for compilation of extra modules like with Apache, or
55 do we just drop them into the modules directory and recompile from scratch
58 Has anyone written a skeleton module with compilation instructions that we
59 could use as a starter?
60 Is there a list of APIs that we could call on or must we read the code (Very
61 headbreaking for us low IQ, cut
& paste coders).
63 Please don't tell me anything useless like:
"If you don't understand the
64 code you shouldn't be doing this!
" Unless you intend to do the coding for
65 us, for free, because suitable, or not; We're all we've got!.
