emacs-circe/circe: Circe, a Client for IRC in Emacs

Circe is a Client for IRC in Emacs. It tries to have sane defaults, and integrates well with the rest of the editor, using standard Emacs key bindings and indicating activity in channels in the status bar so it stays out of your way unless you want to use it.

Complexity-wise, it is somewhere between rcirc (very minimal) and ERC (very complex).

In order to securely connect to an IRC server using TLS, Circe requires an Emacs linked against the GnuTLS library.

For displaying images, Circe requires ImageMagick.

Make sure you have MELPA Stable added to your package sources. To your .emacs, add this:

(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("melpa-stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/") t)
(package-initialize)

Then, use package-install to install Circe:

M-x package-install RET circe RET

After this, M-x circe should work.

In a shell:

mkdir -d ~/.emacs.d/lisp/
cd ~/.emacs.d/lisp
git clone git://github.com/emacs-circe/circe.git

Then add the following to your .emacs file:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp/circe")
(require 'circe)

The next time you start your Emacs, you should be able to use M-x circe to connect to IRC.

To connect to IRC, simply use M-x circe RET Libera Chat RET RET. This will connect you to Libera. You can join us on #emacs-circe by using /join #emacs-circe in the server buffer.

A more elaborate setup would require you to edit your init file and add something like the following:

(setq circe-network-options
      '(("Libera Chat"
         :tls t
         :nick "my-nick"
         :sasl-username "my-nick"
         :sasl-password "my-password"
         :channels ("#emacs-circe")
         )))

With this in your configuration, you can use M-x circe RET Libera Chat RET to connect to Libera using these settings.

If the network you are connecting to supports client certificate authentication and you have setup your certificate, you can tell circe to use it when login to the network. You can enable SASL external authentication also if the network supports it. An example to connect into Libera using a client certificate could be:

(setq circe-network-options
      '(("Libera Chat"
         :tls t
         :tls-keylist (("/full/path/key.pem"
                        "/full/path/cert.pem"))
         :sasl-external t
         :nick "my-nick"
         :channels ("#emacs-circe")
         )))

If the client certificate consists of just one combined file, it needs to be specified twice:

(setq circe-network-options
      '(("Libera Chat"
         :tls t
         :tls-keylist (("/full/path/combined.pem"
                        "/full/path/combined.pem"))
         :sasl-external t
         :nick "my-nick"
         :channels ("#emacs-circe")
         )))

Note that sasl-external is not required in order to be able to authenticate using client certificates and not all the networks support it.
