Monitor Users

Halloy has monitor support if the server has the IRCv3 Monitor extension (a protocol for notification of when clients become online/offline).

To use the feature you need to add the user(s) you wish to monitor. This can be done in two ways:

• You can add a list of user directly to the configuration file. See configuration option.
• You can add users through /monitor directly in Halloy (users added this way will not be remembered across application restarts).

Examples with the /monitor command:

/monitor + casperstorm # Add user to list being monitored
/monitor - casperstorm # Remove user from list being monitored
/monitor c # Clear the list of users being monitored
/monitor l # Get list of users being monitored
/monitor s # For each user in the list being monitored, get their current status

Notifications can be configured for when monitored users come online or go offline. For example:

[notifications.monitored_online]
show_toast = true

[notifications.monitored_offline]
show_toast = true

will show a toast notification whenever a monitored user changes between offline and online.
