Title: bind style config file
Post by: katsklaw on July 28, 2007, 03:10:37 PM

many modern ircd's and some other services packages have moved away from the old line based config files and moved to block or bind style config files. I feel it's time for Anope to do the same.

remote {
 server1 "irc1.host 6667 somepassword";
 server2 "irc2.host 6667 somepassword";
 server3 "irc3.host 6667 somepassword";
};

instead of:
RemoteServer    1.2.3.4 4400 "Pass"
RemoteServer2    1.2.3.4 4400 "Pass"
RemoteServer3   1.2.3.4 4400 "Pass"

This has been planned and work on this will be started for the next major release after 1.8

I'd suggest reading up on bison and flex (gnu.org/software/$thing). It makes configuration parsers extremely easy to code.
