DESCRIPTION

POE::Component::IRC::Plugin::POE::Knee, is a POE::Component::IRC plugin that runs Acme::POE::Knee style horse races on IRC channels using the channel member list to generate the POE::Knees. >:)

CONSTRUCTOR

new

Creates a new plugin object. You may specify the following optional parameters:

'stages' => the number of stages involved in the race, default is 5;

IRC INPUT

POEKNEE

If your bot is addressed by name with the command 'POEKNEE' (case doesn't matter), with optional number of stages, a POE::Knee race is started.

GumbyBRAIN: POEKNEE 10

OUTPUT

Apart from the output seen on the IRC channel where a POE::Knee race is currently underway, at the end of a race the following 'irc' event is generated.

irc_poeknee_results

Generated each time a POE::Knee race finishes.

ARG0, the channel where the race was run;
ARG1, an arrayref containing lots of potentially uninteresting data;
