Inherited from IRC:

Method action Send an action to a channel or user.
Method channelMode Send information about the mode of a channel.
Method dataReceived This hack is to support mIRC, which sends LF only, even though the RFC says CRLF. (Also, the flexibility of LineReceiver to turn "line mode" on and off was not required.)
Method handleCommand Determine the function to call for the given command and call it with the given arguments.
Method irc_unknown Called by handleCommand on a command that doesn't have a defined handler. Subclasses should override this method.
Method join Send a join message.
Method names Send the names of a channel's participants to a user.
Method notice Send a "notice" to a channel or user.
Method part Send a part message.
Method privmsg Send a message to a channel or user
Method sendCommand Send to the remote peer a line formatted as an IRC message.
Method sendLine Undocumented
Method topic Send the topic to a user.
Method topicAuthor Send the author of and time at which a topic was set for the given channel.
Method who Send a list of users participating in a channel.
Method whois Send information about the state of a particular user.

Inherited from Protocol (via IRC):

Method logPrefix Return a prefix matching the class name, to identify log messages related to this protocol instance.
Class Variable factory Undocumented

Inherited from BaseProtocol (via IRC, Protocol):

Method makeConnection Make a connection to a transport and a server.
Instance Variable connected Undocumented

def connectionLost(self, reason): (source)

Called when the connection is shut down.

Clear any circular references here, and any external references to this Protocol. The connection has been closed.

Parameters
reason:twisted.python.failure.FailureUndocumented
def connectionMade(self): (source)

Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.

def receive(self, sender, recipient, message): (source)

Callback notifying this user of the given message sent by the given user.

This will be invoked whenever another user sends a message to a group this user is participating in, or whenever another user sends a message directly to this user. In the former case, recipient will be the group to which the message was sent; in the latter, it will be the same object as the user who is receiving the message.

Parameters
sender:IUserUndocumented
recipient:IUser or IGroupUndocumented
message:dictUndocumented
Returns
twisted.internet.defer.DeferredA Deferred which fires when the message has been delivered, or which fails in some way. If the Deferred fails and the message was directed at a group, this user will be removed from that group.
def sendMessage(self, command, *parameter_list, **kw): (source)

Send a line formatted as an IRC message.

First argument is the command, all subsequent arguments are parameters to that command. If a prefix is desired, it may be specified with the keyword argument 'prefix'.

The sendCommand method is generally preferred over this one. Notably, this method does not support sending message tags, while the sendCommand method does.
