Linking with PyLink

🚫 Please note: HybridIRC no longer offers PyLink or linking services. The information below is for archival purposes only.

🔗 What is PyLink?

PyLink is a powerful and flexible services package that allows multiple IRC servers or networks to be linked together securely. HybridIRC runs its own PyLink service and supports linking both networks and individual channels. If you're interested in linking, reach out to us!

📜 Linking Rules

🔗 Channel Linking

  • You must be the founder of the channel on the network.
  • The channel must not already be registered on HybridIRC, OR you must obtain permission from the HybridIRC channel founder.
  • All linked channels must follow HybridIRC’s policies.

🌐 Network (Hardlink) Linking

  • Your IRCd must support PyLink (e.g., UnrealIRCd, InspIRCd, Ergo, etc.).
  • HybridIRC must set up the link request via the server, similar to how two servers are linked in InspIRCd, UnrealIRCd, etc.
  • You must have administrative access to your server.
  • Your network should be stable and adhere to HybridIRC’s policies.

📧 How to Apply

If you're interested in linking your channel or server to HybridIRC using PyLink, send an email to support@hybridirc.com with the following details:

  • Your IRC network name
  • Server software (IRCd) and version
  • Type of link (channel link or full network hardlink)
  • For channel links: Channel name and proof of founder status
  • For hardlinks: Administrative access verification
  • Reason for linking to HybridIRC

Once reviewed, our team will get back to you with the next steps.

⚙️ Configuration Guide

Setting up PyLink involves configuring both your IRCd and PyLink itself. You can find official PyLink documentation here: PyLink GitHub. If your application is approved, we will provide you with additional HybridIRC-specific connection details.
