gossip

Gossip is a shard for integrating MUDs with the Gossip inter-mud chat network.

Installation

Add this to your application's shard.yml:

dependencies:
  gossip:
    github: proxima/gossip-crystal

Usage

require "gossip"

client = Gossip::Client.new "mud-name", "client-id", "client-secret"
spawn client.run

Enable verbose logging

client.verbose = true

Optionally, you can provide Gossip::Client a Proc which returns the MUD's online players.

client.player_list = ->{ ["Player1", "Player2"] }

or

client.player_list = ->{ acquire_player_list_somehow(); }

You can also use the client to inform Gossip of login/logoffs in real-time.

client.player_login.send "Player Two"
client.player_logoff.send "Player One"

Listen to broadcasts from other MUDs

spawn do
  loop do
    msg = client.broadcast.receive
  end
end

Development

TODO tells (send/receive)

TODO reconnects, raise errors when disconnected
