'''Cheddar''' is a bot written by {{deviant|plaguethenet}} in C#. The main goal of this bot is to run on GNU/Linux and and have a simple, yet powerful API.

==Requirements==
===GNU/Linux===
* Mono 1.2.5.1 or later.
===Windows===
* .NET Framework 2.0 or later

==Features==
* Dynamic loading and unloading of plugins and their respective commands.
* Runs on GNU/Linux (Mono) and windows (.NET framework 2.0).
* XML Based configuration files.
* Extremely fast and lightweight dAmn connection library.
* Room and user properties tracking.
* Simple API to develop plugins.
* XML Plugin metadata.
* Plugins may include their own references.
* Plugins can be split across multiple files.
* Extremely fast and lightweight event system.
* Easy user setup.

==Known Bugs==
* Cheddar fails to properly load plugins under mono 1.2.x, please update to 1.9.
* Cheddar runs poorly (Very slowly) under mono 1.2.x, please update to 1.9.
* Cheddar sees warnings as errors when compiling C# Plugins under mono, no known workaround is available other then to fix the source of the warnings.

==Downloads==
* Cheddar 1.2 http://download.botdom.com/klfne/Cheddar_1.2.exe (Fixed a few small bugs in 1.1, Stable Release)
* Cheddar 1.1 http://download.botdom.com/uoqby/Cheddar1.1.zip (Major Updates)

* Cheddar 0.9rc2 http://download.botdom.com/5hp5l/Cheddar0.92rc2.zip (Added a new module)
* Cheddar 0.9rc1 http://download.botdom.com/jmg5s/cheddar0.9rc1.zip (Re-arranged some code)
* Cheddar 0.3b http://download.botdom.com/6dn87/cheddar_0.3b.zip (Numerous updates, Bug fixes)

* Cheddar 0.1a http://download.botdom.com/b2brn/dAmned.tar.bz2 (Initial Release)

==Change Log==
===1.2 Stable===
* Added a new profile command that allows multiple bot-profiles
* This change breaks compatibility with existing bots, If you want to keep your existing settings, Please move the Config folder into Proifles\Default
* Modified the plugin loading system to allow for assembly metadata in the cache files. A new XML Tag has been added to the .plugin file format as well, Check out plugins\system\system.plugin to see the change.
* The new XML tag is NOT required and will default to true.
* Fixed a small bug where plugins not written in C# had to have the <AutomaticAssemblyInfo> tag set to False or they would not compile.
* Fixed a bug in 1.1 where if channels were specified to autojoin, the bot would fail to join any rooms at all.
===1.1===
* Fixed several issues involving failures to handshake and get an authtoken
* Modified the internal event system yet again to squeeze more speed out.
* Added an embedded web server, Disabled by default.
* Cheddar now GZip's old log files, and renames them to *.log.gz
* Fixed some, but not all, issues with the console formatting.
* Several plugins were using the console formatter to write directly to the console, Ignoring a hidden option to silence plugins. This has been fixed.
* Added a new method of adding commands to plugins, Have not migrated current commands to the new method, But Overriding OnCommand should be considered depreciated and the function will be removed in future relases.
* Added an LUA eval command (e). Working on implementing LUA as a module language.
* Added a new module WSM, This module controls the web-server's behavior, Check it out if you want to add URL handlers for cheddar.
===0.9rc3===
* Moved some of the bots internals to external files in the Modules directory.
* Implemented several new API's to modify the way the bots core works.
* Fixed several issues in the plugin loader, Plugins and modules should now compile much faster.
* Implemented an asynchronous pattern in events, Resulting in less internal latency.
===0.9rc2===
* Added an away module.
* Fixed an issue where a disconnect would not be properly detected.
===0.9rc1===
* Moved some code to a separate assembly, Anything wishing to use the Tree class must now reference StrangeSoft.Data.dll and import the namespace StrangeSoft.Data, The tree class remains mostly the same, Although binary incompatible, the api is still compatible.
* Most of the changes were to aid in debugging. Bot is stable enough for day to day use.

===API===
Here is a list of methods you may override for different events on dAmn
This list will expand, but will never get smaller.
The only method that you HAVE to override is OnLoad();
The C# Syntax for overriding one of these methods is:
protected override void On_____(params exactly as they appear below);
<csharp>
        void OnLoad();
	void OnLogin();
        void OnUserJoin(string room, string user, bool hidden);
        void OnUserPart(string room, string user, string reason, bool hidden);
        void OnKicked(string room, string who, string by, string reason);
        void OnPart(string room, string r);
        void OnJoin(string room, string r);
        void OnUserKicked(string room, string who, string by, string reason);
        void OnMessage(string room, string from, string message, bool action);
        void OnShutdown();
</csharp>
